Slimline Pens


Well, here we go, and the slimline case is all filled up nicely again. These slimlines are an elegant slant on a traditional pocket style pen. Dignified enough for the businessman, small enough for the most delicate hands, and stylish clipped to your pocketbook.

Some of these pens have already sold, but it gives a good idea of what can be done and the woods available. These pens feature cedar, mulberry, maple, walnut, snakewood, bloodwood, mahogany, purpleheart, black locust, honey locust, and box elder. Might be a couple others in there too.

Most are AVAILABLE and FOR SALE -- $20.00 -- Contact me via the ABOUT ME at the right hand side of the page.

If you are looking for a slimline in a different kind of wood, just drop me a line and I'll make you one custom as long as I can source the wood.

Osage Orange Cigar Pen

Checking out my pen case today, I realized that I am nearly out of stock on slimline designs. So as much as I like to make these Cigar pens, this one will be the last for a short period of time while I build up some slimline stock. Stay tuned for some examples of the slimlines that I'll be turning.

This Cigar Pen is made from Osage Orange, and is a beautiful yellow. Turned with my classic cigar pen styling, it is accented with Black Chrome. As an added touch, I decided to try my hand at some decorative turning and included some grooves aound the grip point of the clip.

This pen is FOR SALE -- $40.00 -- Contact me via the ABOUT ME at the right hand side of this page.

Bloodwood Cigar Pen

This is a Cigar Pen, turned in my classic shape. The Black Chrome Accents are a natural compliment to the red tinting of the South American wood known as Bloodwood.

With this design, and overall large size, this pen is the perfect fit for a professional gentleman. Elegant and classy, but also sized to fit a large hand or help to improve the grip of somebody with arthritic joints or musclular difficulties in the fingers.

This pen is SOLD.

Acrylic Red/White/Black Cigar Pen


I've seen posts from other pen creators and they name their pens. I've never had that strike me as something that needed to be done until this pen was nearing completion. The name just jumped out at me! This is a Cigar Style Pen made with Red / White / Black acrylic. These are of course Canada's National Olympic colours, and with the upcoming Winter Olympic Games of 2010 on home soil I present to you " VANCOUVER ". Of course, the accent trim on this one is Gold!

This pen is SOLD.

Maple Stained Slimline Pen

This is a truly beautiful pen. The Slimline satin gold accenting really brings out the bold colour of the Raspberry Stain that was used on the local Southern Ontario Maple wood. The slim design works well for a business person who keeps their pen in their pocket or anybody that doesn't want a bulky design.

This pen is FOR SALE - $20.00 - Contact me via email that can be found in the ABOUT ME located on the right hand side of this page.

Acrylic Red/White/Green Cabara Pen


This pen was made from Custom Resin in the Colours of Italia! A nice Red / White / Green swirl throughout the pen, and gold accents in a Carbara Twist pen style. This pen is SOLD.
