Damascus Steel Jr. Statesman

[omb76]

This is my first time working with a M3 blank, but certainly won't be my last! This one came from R&B Crafts. Turned really easily but did create a lot of dust throughout the process. Definitely worth it though. After taking these pictures, I noticed in them that there was a gap between the blank and the end coupler, I've since fixed that, I just didn't have it pressed all the way in. This is a gift for my dad for Christmas.

I've considered the Black-Ti with that blank also. Excellent match and workings. He's sure to love it.

Very nice. The M3 always seems to provide good raw material for an elegant pen, and you've certainly taken advantage of that well.

Super nice!!! I have done alot of aluminum pens and have been wanting to try the damascus but the cost of it is crazy..I think your Dad will be very happy and proud to have this pen.
