Olympia

[rd_ab_penman]

Black Titanium dressed up in a piece of Sage brush sanded to 400x, buffed with extra fine steel wool, burnished with turned shavings, and finished with 6 coats of MINWAX WBOM Polyurethane using my "Dipping Method".
Some of the Sage Brush looks a lot like Caragana even though they are not related.

That is a very clean well-turned pen. Wood and hardware are meant for each other!!:yin-yang:
Thanks for showing.

Beautiful pen. I love the wood.

Very nice work, and great choice on the black ti kit finish.

With its subtle evocation of the Mont Blanc style, the Olympia is pure class. It is the only twist/ ballpoint pen I make regularly.

(Although, I am very intrigued by these new single barrel ones -Celtic, Knight's Armor, etc - I'm seeing.)

Beautiful combination pen and blank, Les.
