    very difficult to photograph but I hope it gives you a good idea of the finished product. I managed to cram in a few different metals! The Damascus is a combo of 15N20 and 1084, bolt is bronze, titanium bolt handle screw and aluminium for the tip and cap.859F0398-264C-47A4-BDDA-463D9EBFB9A0.jpg

    Excellent work. I love a good bolt-action pen. Did you use ferric chloride to enhance the colour of the Damascus?

    Thanks. Yep ferric etch followed by strong instant coffee did the trick nicely.
