This is a Knurl GT pen in antique brass. The blank is a Rhino called Carolina Swirl. I rather like the combination of this blank with the antique brass. I have fallen in love with the Rhino blanks. I have yet to be disappointed with one, and you can't beat the price. Plus, at 7/8" square they're better for bigger diameter pens, which I tend to turn more of.

The lighting in the first photos showed off the blank more than the component plating. These show off the plating better.
