SOLD - Micro Pocket Pen in Caramel Apple and Red Pearl

Hi folks,

I am putting this one up for sale.

This is a second take on my 'Micro Pocket Pen' design (the first version had a threaded barrel end, which the cap could screw on to).    Since I didn't really like the look of the exposed threads, I have not made one for some time.  I decided to have another go at the Micro, that allows the cap to friction-fit on the barrel.






So this actually worked out quite nicely.  The pen is quite compact when closed, and when posted, the cap is quite secure on the barrel end (won't fall off while you write), and extends the pen enough to be fairly comfortable in action.






The nib is a medium Bock steel, and the pen is of course cartridge only, as a converter would require quite a bit more barrel length.

I am looking for $150 USD plus shipping ($15 USD in US and Canada).  Please email if interested (kencavers@gmail.com).

Thanks for looking!

SOLD - Sunny Granite Shirt Pocket Fountain Pen

Here is freshly finished pen up for sale.  Almost all the pens I make are commissions, but occasionally I turn some material to see how it looks.

This is one of my 'Shirt Pocket Fountain Pen' style pens, characterized by being deeply and securely postable for convenience while writing, equipped of course, with a clip.    It is has a manageable length of 133mm capped, and a very comfortable 139mm posted.  The unposed length is 126mm.  The cap diameter is 15mm, barrel max diameter is 13.5mm.

The nib is a broad two-tone steel JoWo (can swap out for EF, F, M or stub if preferred), and the fill system is cartridge/converter.

I am asking $185 USD shipped in North America.   Elsewhere, will need to calculate.  Feel free to make a reasonable offer.

Please shoot me an email at kencavers at gmail dot com to claim it or if questions.
