Hi Ed, Is that a real piece of rebar? How in the world did you drill that? Even drilled out, isn't it heavy to write with? I t certainly does look nice.
Yes, it is real rebar. We tried dozens of times to drill pieces and NO, we did not succeed. One of our customers found a job shop that can drill the rebar--we are buying from him. I will weigh the pen, my impression is that it is not too heavy (the remaining steel is pretty thin). It is a cool looking pen!!
Yes it is a cool looking pen. I figured it must be thin if you're suggesting to paint the brass tube. That's just amazing. Rebar. I may actually have to order 1 ea. of these and see how they sell. If nothing else, I'll have some pretty cool looking pens. @@exoticblanks
The diamond knurl is made exclusively for Exotic Blanks and it is very similar to the sierra. Tubes are the same size. However, the finial resembles the elegant series, but the back end screws on so it can conveniently be replaced with a stylus version (which is also available). Additionally, the "nib" of the pen unscrews to allow the user to change the refill without exposing the transmission--a notable design improvement over the original. Finally, the "centerband" ornamentation is much deeper carved and the nose is gunmetal, so it is very durable--not likely to scratch and peel. Thanks for watching!! Try a Diamond Knurl Ballpoint, you will see the difference for yourself! Ed

it weighs 16 grams, a little less than half an ounce
That's impressive. Thank you Dawn.@@dawnkizer982
Looks more like a Sierra kit to me.
