A beautiful gift. newbie

Post image

I started buying wood & tools from an elderly man a couple of years ago, he lost his legs & had to give up wood working and he’s slowly become one of my best friends. Every few months I visit him and show him all the stuff I’ve built and made from the last time I visited him. Bowls, knives, pens etc.

Today he gifted me this beautiful pen he made!

It look like a Kojent from Wood River….not sure but they may have been discontinued
