Two Barons.
First is blue dyed maple burl, where the dye only penetrated the spalted areas, giving a nice dark spalt line dividing the blue and natural colored wood. Four lines of Inlace inlay.
Second is a guitar themed pen, for one of my groomsmen. Red stabilized curly maple, pickguard, rosewood and curly maple. Frets are aluminum siding and markers are finish nails (not recomended, had to work those with a file). I got a big fat blister on my thumb from all the hand sanding I had to do on this one.
After about a dozen tries each, these are the best photos I could come up with. They are actually shiny, I promise.
