Evening all,

Came across a fascinating blank at Beaufort ink a few months ago and just got round to turning it. Threading into a Semplicita Burgundy blank (the polyester is too brittle for threads) and shown with Bock #6 nibs - Black, Red and Purple lacquer.

Thoughts?

Closed length - 150mm
Open length - 147mm
No step.

Hey thank you - you've been busy looking at the pens. I think the black lacquer nib stops you to look again, whilst the purple lacquer seems to merge with the pen.
