Steven, I like many things about your pen. The Olive has so much character that it is well suited for a pen with no center band, yet at the same time its being bracketed by the Blackwood endings frames it perfectly. And then there is a very nice visual "heft" to the pen overall. It is inspiring to me, and a picture if this pen is going into my "inspiration" file. Nicely done.

Beautiful work! Is the olive wood spalted or did you accentuate the grain somehow with dye?

 

[nappy155]

thank you...

 

[nappy155]

no dye...but i did put several coats of lacquer on...

 

[robutacion]

Wow, that's what I call, a great looking pen from a great looking blank.

Unusual but, very "posh", well done...!

Cheers
George

Very cool. I can't tell for sure, but it looks like the cap is threaded. Is that the case? If so, how did you do it?

 

[Fishinbo]

I like your choice of wood and how it came out exquisitely.

Nice contrast resulting in no need for a metal ring between the two woods.
