Yep love them both. Diamonds are on my list too. Love the knot with the aluminum. That is classy. Like what I am seeing these days.

Perfect symmetry on the knot. well done. Is the diamonds back and front only??

Oh my, those are beautiful. I love the diamonds, but the knots are superb. I only say this as I can do the diamonds, but the knots with superb precision and the multilayers are above my pay grade. . I really like these. And those that think the diamonds are just a nice random inlay... Try doing them in a 3 sided design like what Jeff has done here !!!!! Well done.

Nice detail on the setup Jeff. Was wondering and have thought about this many times, has anyone did something similar but using a Mortising jig?? I have an old Delta setup for my Delta drill press and have a dedicated mortiser which I use more often that the first one. I may just have to try that. Just another way to get to finished product I guess. The tolerance needs to be exact. Put it on my to do list.

Thanks for the pictures, I will be trying this technique. I have made a few diamond pens , but my method was clunky and hard to repeat.
