This is my second Yari from Exotic Blanks, this one in gunmetal and chrome. The blank is an Aquabright from PSI called green and black. Not a very imaginative name, but a very nice looking blank nonetheless. Like the first Yari I made, I made the body straight to match the sleek lines of the pen. This is for a friend's 60th birthday, and I think she'll be well pleased.

I knew the body would be thin, so I painted the tube and inside of the blank, and colored the epoxy. There are some light spots, but I can't tell if the paint is showing through, or if they're just part of the blank. Regardless, it doesn't look bad.
