Wow. That is really special Les. I see why that pen kit is called "Elegant Beauty".
I have heard about cast pheasant feathers but have never seen a pen made with that kind of blank. I really like it!

That sure is a real nice looking pen. I like the feathers, like Doug I'd seem them, but never in a completed pen.
I've not tried several of the components in your finish - were you pleased with it? Relatively easy to get your blanks scratch free?
Thanks!
Zac
