One is BOW and the other Cherry. I have been wanting to try the one piece pen for a while now. Thought it would be harder than it was. The pen made of BOW is one of my favorite woods there is.

I love olive wood too. There's an olive grove and mill in Queen Creek and I'm just waiting for the chance to get some from there. hmmm would that QCOW...
Nice pens there. Beware of high humidity. My first one wouldn't work in the summertime. It relocated to Texas. The rest of them I did out of acrylic or drilled the bottom half a few thousands oversize.
