M3 Damascus- love it!

[Buzzzz4]

Thanks to some birthday bash discounts and a group buy (for the Statesman) I was able to get a M3 blank and some Tru stone. The first is the Damascus Steel on a Jr. Statesman (I'll be upgrading that nib soon). 2. Blue Lapis Tru Stone on a Sculpted Pen. 3. Carob Slimline with CA finish sans centerband 4.Red Mallee Burl on an Australiana sierra. 5. A photochromatic blank I picked up in a grab bag on a black titanium slimline.

Congrats on the products. You have a very nice group of pens. Nice work & great pictures too. I really like the M3 and the Red Malee blanks.

Every one of those pens look great Eric.

Nice work on all but the Stesman stands alone. That blank is fantastic looking. Thanks for showing.

I really am partial to red mallee burl. I like that one the best, but they are all outstanding.

The Damascus Steel looks amazing. I've been wanting to try one for a while now.

How did you finish your Tru-Stone? I have some blue lapis on the lathe right now, but I can't seem to get it to shine.

I do a thin CA finish on my tru stone. I struggle to make it shine as well so I do that as a work around.

Thanks! That's what I figured people were doing. There's something I like about the unfinished, flat look I like too. Guess I have a decision to make.

Super fit and finish on all. I like the Statesman and Sierra best of the lot.
