American Black Walnut Pen

An American black walnut wooden pen hand turned in my own UK workshops on a woodturning lathe. This is a Sierra pen with a high-quality chrome-plated trim and gold details. The central barrel handcrafted from a piece of American Black Walnut wood.

The wood needs mounting on the lathe and hand turned to round and shape. Once shaped, it needs sanding through to 400 grit and then up to 8 coatings of super glue applied, then polished to 12000 grit using micro mesh for a super hard and durable high gloss finish. Some of my competitors only use a wax or oil finish, but this will not protect these pens over time from the natural oils and stains they will surely pick up.

The pen uses a twist mechanism with a Parker-style G2 medium ballpoint black ink refill available from any good stationery suppliers.

All of my handcrafted wood pens come in a black presentation box as a standard. Every piece of wood is different, these pens make unusual handmade wooden 5th wedding anniversary gifts.
