A customer wanted several pens made in the style of the Conway Stewart Churchill, using original materials, so we took the Epic and used the same dimensions & design elements as the Churchill to turn it into a clone. We "Churchillized" it. :D The sterling silver Heritage clip was made especially for this order by Mike Redburn of Silver Pen Parts, and will be available from now on with any of my pens.

Stunning!

 

As are all your creations.

 

Someday I will find out how you place the the embellishing rings around the caps and barrels of pens?

 

Complete mystery to me :unsure:

That is a beautiful pen & I especially like the silver fittings. The new clip is reminiscent of the Conway Stewart BUT with an elegant "twist!"

My Churchill has gold fittings with Amber resin & these two certainly are distinctively different. I think you have done a great honor to the people who have enjoyed the Conway Stewart Pens. You have made available the great design & should create more interest for new buyers who were "late to the party" for their Churchill. Thank you.

I was waiting for the photo of your pen (no doubt the images were the CS 'inspiration'). Then the penny dropped.

 

Wow.

Too many pens; too little writing.

Thank you, Jeff. I show how I make the metal rings and install them on the cap on my Instagram feed all the time:

I like the new clip. Very cool.

Thanks for the affirmations on the clip design! I'm one of those myself who was late to the party. I'd always wanted a Churchill in Dartmoor. Now I can sort of come close to it! :)

Normally, I'm not overly enamored of the "cracked ice" style blanks. But that one is truly gorgeous. Nice job.

Nice, you always do a spectacular job with your pens!

 

One thing, and I am not sure if it is just the photo not doing the nib justice but I think it could stand a nib with larger shoulders so it doesn't look so wimpy such a large pen.

 

Keep up the great work!

Thanks, Zaphod! It's a #6 JoWo nib, in a Medium pen. The thing with getting a larger nib is that JoWo only makes #8 nibs in 18k, and that usually places it out of the price range of most customers. I sure wish they'd start offering #8 steel nibs. I got lots of requests for them!

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
