A Mistral turned using M3 Mokume, I find this a fascinating material with a lot of depth, and of course the metallic shimmer.
I think the space age quality of M3 works well with the traditional quality of the Mistral.
Haven't seen much of it on the forum recently!

like the nifty black band next to the nib ,it gives importance to the nib, design to the lower end..The Mokume resembling a tailored suit. Plenty to see in this pen so well turned Peter.

Very nice Peter mate. Never heard of that material and had to google it. You've turned it well

Great looking pen Peter - and as you say, M3 mokume is seldom seen on the forum. Maybe you'll inspire others to have a go with it too. You've turned yours to perfection.
