Jim you haven't had one in your shirt pocket yet have you!
In reality the newer rollerballs don't tend to leak or dry up. Now I could
make you the same pen with a fountain nib. I'm sure we could get that to leak
in your pocket.

The barrels of the pen are of Honduran Rosewood turned on my lathe and the
pen
utilizes a Rollerball refill. I am currently working on a Holy Sprite
inspired pen that will be turned from Bethlehem Olivewood, have a Chrome
finish, and an Austin Healey final in place of the MG one on this pen.
It is a chrome arrow on the back of the Sprite isn't it? Or should I make
it
with a gold finish.
