Wood is special, it has a personality. Without which it would just be another piece of cheap plastic. The goal is to bring out the best character in the wood. Since almost everything I do is custom, every order gets the best possible care.
If you find a defect that is mine, I will gladly replace your pen. If it is the character of the wood, perhaps I could help you pick a wood better suited to your tastes.

PEN STYLES
One of the most popular pens is the Executive in 24k gold plate. It is also available in chrome, black titanium, gun metal and satin gold finishes.
These would be $25 each with free shipping.
The SlimLine pens are attractive lower cost pens that fit someone with smaller hands. They are available in any wood and many finishes. Gun metal is not available in the SlimLine.
Pen and Pencil sets are available in many pen styles. This is a favorite with many people for gifts. Pen and Pencil in the slimline style is $37 delivered.
A fine writing instrument is a personal item that you hold, touch and use. Great effort goes into making certain your pen is made well and will last. All of the pens take standard refills.
On the collector side, I make fancy rollerball and fountain pens where the buyer picks out the wood or acrylic from photos. These custom pens are delightful, there is nothing quite as pleasurable as signing an important document, or even a small purchase, with a pen that feels like it came off of Napoleon’s desk.
