No fancy work or techniques to show off, but it's interesting how different the spalted tamerind looks between these. All are finished with CA and polished just to a satin sheen. The pictures are a little lousy, but good enough to see the variation. The first is a PSI Executive, the others are the dura-click EDCs, the last 2 being a pen/pencil set.

Great looking Pens and you have shown the wood off perfectly.
 
Great looking pens. Any adivice on turining? The few that I have tried have broke apart on me.
Maybe I was lucky? This wasn't stabilized. I just took light cuts. I'd say use sharp tools, but that's the case with everything. I did use some ultra thin gluboost to help stabilize some soft spots as I turned.
