I managed to turn this Pen using 300 million year old Petoskey Stone.
The pen is one of PSI's David Broadwell designed Art Deco style ballpoint pen

Ebay for $15





used a drum sander to get an edge, small bandsaw, cobalt drill bit to drill 3/8 hole, fitted on mandrel and sanded down to size using Abranet , no chisels needed.

Beautiful pen and thank you for the method. I have always wanted to try to turn softer stone, but didn't want to pay for special diamond bits.

Very nice.
