Evening All,
Knocked these up today in a very cold workshop.
Sierra kit came from penkits and is in carbon fibre. The omega and alpha came from Taylors Mirfield. Both in bloodwood.

Lovely pieces of work, especially the bloodwood pair. Having seen these, I think my recently bought bloodwood blanks are soon to be used.

Great set of pens there Melvyn!
I too am a fan of bloodwood and it never fails to amaze me how differently the wood comes out, I turned a pair of Mistrals last month (Here) and you can see mine yours and Bammer's all turned out differently. it really is a beautiful wood

That's the beauty of wood. You never really know how its going to look until you have it polished up. I'm really please how these two blanks came out.
