It's a bead. I made it on a lathe and grinder in my garage. It's made from carbon damascus steel and has a heavy etch. It looks great, feels silky smooth, is very spinny, and would look amazing on a lanyard.
Fluted design, with a 1/4" hole through the center and large countersinks on both sides
.75" long
.65" dia
*I make these for fun. They are completed, then I use them as props in pictures. Then I drop them in a cup on my desk. Eventually I list them for sale here. They'll probably have dings on them. That's part of their unique character and is not considered a flaw.
