Custom Made Pens
The .303 Cartridge Bolt Action Pen
Our signature pen, this pen extends a ball point nib by use of the smooth action bolt at the top of the pen. These are very popular with collectors and also serve as excellent gifts.
The Slimline Pen
These versatile pens are a 'twist operation' with a 'rollerball' nib. They are available not only in a variety of types of wood but can be personalised by means of thickness and personalised 'clips'. A full list of clips is available at the bottom of this page along with some examples of wood.
Most of my pens are made to order and are available in a wide variety of wood, after all wood is forever. My pens come in a variety of types and can be modified in girth to suit the individual. Please use the contact page should you require more information.
In addition, I do have a stock of pens for sale, these as well as those illustrated below, can be viewed on the pens for sale page, which will be coming shortly.
The 7.62 Cartridge Pen
These pens are manufactured from spent 7.62 casings and are available with a choice from a variety of different types of woods, subject to availability. Operation is based on the Slimline Pen with a twist action. The brass casings and the wood can be engraved with a limited amount of lettering.
Again, these pens can be produced from a variety of different and exotic woods such as Mopani, Olive and Pau Rosa from East Africa.
For further enquiries, including the use of personalised 'brass' please use the 'Contacts Page' below or from the main menu.
The Stylus Combi Ballpen
This clever combination instrument can be used as a Stylus for use on touch screens such iPads and mobile phones.
Simply by 'clicking' the top of the pen, ingeniously transforms it into a pen for everyday use'
Again, these pens are available in a wide variety of woods, on the top image from left to right are, Mopani, Black Walnut, Olive and Bubinga.
Other popular pens included, on the left, are the RO3 Ballpoint Pen, complete with a removable cap to protect the nib. This example is manufactured from a piece of African Walnut.
To the right is the popular Serea Click Pen, this example is crafted from Rhodesian Teak.
Propelling Pencil
It was brought to my attention some time ago that perhaps I should also produce a Propelling Pencil as well. So I did!
The example opposite is the Ayres Propelling Pencil, this example has been produced using Iroko.
Presentation
Presentation is always paramount; we have a Gold and Chrome 'Trumpet Holders'. These holders are suitable for all the Slimline pen range, but they would require substantially larger bases to accommodate other pens.
Alternatively, other presentation methods are available in the form of soft cases, cardboard and metal cases
Available Types of Woods.
Some of the available woods that are offered are shown in the image opposite. These include American Black Walnut, African Walnut, Bubinga, a rich reddy colour. Hickory a very pale colour, with a distinctive grain, Iroko. Mopani and Rhodesian Teak from central Africa. Mahogany, Oak, Pine, Sapele and Wild Mango. Just as an afterthought, most of my pens are fashioned from scrap wood, such as Hickory which was sourced from a broken sledgehammer handle, Mango from furniture off cuts and Mahogany from old windowsills.
In addition there are the beautiful light colours of Wild Cherry, Hickory and Olive wood, then the darker colours of Plum and Pau Rosa from East Africa.
Slimline Pen Clips.
There is a large choice of Pen Clips offered that will only fit on the Slimline range of pens. The choices and colours are shown opposite.
Prices & Ordering Pens.
Because there are so many variants which are dependent on the model of the pen or propelling pencil and whether engraving and personalising are required, it is not possible to give prices online. Suffice to say that the pens and pencils vary from £40.00 to £60.00.
They are very much made to order, although I do have a small stock which are currently available for immediate dispatch.
