Disappointed

The texture of the dark wood was not very good. Bought 5 blanks, one of which had a fairly good texture. The other 4 had very limited texture, definitely nowhere near the quality shown on Revain.

Pros
  • Dimensions: 5" x 0.75" x 0.75"
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Blanks as shown

I've made hundreds of pens from scratch and used a lot of olive wood. These blanks are sold by pen suppliers as "Exhibition" quality. The price and quality from this seller are exceptional. I look forward to using this source in the future.

Pros
  • INCLUDES CERTIFICATES OF AUTHENTICITY AND LABELS FOR YOUR COMPLETE PROJECT
Cons
  • No finish

Very disappointed

I ordered these letterheads after reading that they were heavily formed grains. After receiving and examining this item, it turned out that only one of the five was suitable for spinning the pen, and even this item is iffy and won't know for sure until I spin it. These blanks are in no way comparable to the picture or description.

Pros
  • This wood is easy to turn and very beautiful with unusual dark stripes pierced by the yellow sea. Each piece is air dried and inspected for colour, texture and the absence of defects or cracks.
Cons
  • Not sure
