Another batch of 25 pens headed to our men and women in uniform serving around the world. These are a mix of Mahogany, Cherry and Birch.
Since I started turning pens, I have done 410+ pens for uniformed service personnel and veterans.

Jim … I don’t sign the pens, but each one is packaged with a card that has my email address and information about the pen. I have received many thank you notes from service personnel who have received them.
