Handmade Pen Makers
I am a huge fan of handmade wooden pens. I've bought from several craftsmen, and I want to keep a list of them here on my LiveJournal so that I can find them and buy from them again when I can.
- Joel Lockridge - He makes pens from ancient bog oak (I own one!) and bourbon barrels. I just plain like the guy.
- Christopher Owens - Works out of Michigan. He always did woodworking, but he took it up in earnest as a way to fight alcoholism after his wife died. I absolutely support anyone who is striving to fight off that destructive addiction. The man has my support.
- DN Woodcrafters - I found them on Etsy and like their work. They are two brothers, Dick and Nathaniel.
- McCutch Woodworks - I bought an ebony pen from them on Etsy.
