If you’ve graduated from using just hotel freebie pens and are in the market for a new writing instrument, check out the Machined Brass Bolt Pen. The machined pen’s bolt action makes it fairly addictive to flick open and shut and, at 2.8 ounces, it has a seriously substantial feel to it. There is no finish used, so it will age nicely and add a bit of unique character over time. Made in the US, the Machined Brass Bolt Pen will take any Parker ballpoint compatible refill (one extra is included) and features a stainless clip. It’s an ultra durable instrument that looks flat out awesome.
