A Celtic Cross on a Gold plated slimline pen, using Box Wood, Blood Wood, and African Blackwood as the center band. Finished using CA glue and polished with Meguiars Scratch X.

Very nice, Jim. Given the thickness of the cross veneers I'm guessing your saw-kerf was much less than the 2mm of the other one. Done on the bandsaw, mayhap?

Thats a great looking pen mate, what did you use for the inlay, and how did you cut it so thin? :thinks: Never used Blood wood before, it goes well with the Box wood mate. :thumbs:
