Description: **** Steampunk Style Ballpoint ****This is a handmade Steampunk Bolt Action ballpoint pen made by Placid Crafts. The Hardware on this pen is Antique Pewter and Antique Copper. This pen features the Victorian age Industrialized 19th century look. Some of the cool features of this pen is 24 small flat head screws, the riveted design pattern, the replica Gatling gun barrel, The hand lever pocket clip, The bullet NIB, and not to mention the Bolt Action ink advance mechanism. The pen is 5-7/8" long. I would consider this a larger than standard diameter pen. The pen body is of Steampunk design. The photos are of the actual pen you will receive. This pen has the handcrafted antique look that is so popular. / Pen #SP24 This pen is loaded with The Fisher #SPR4 pressurized black ink, medium point ink cartridge. The standard Fisher “SPR Series” Refills were developed for NASA and have been used on EVERY Space Shuttle mission both American and Russian. They are hermetically sealed with a specially formulated thixotropic ink and pressurized to about 35 PSI. They are the only refills that will write at any angle because they do not rely on gravity. About our Steampunk Series Pens:The body of a steampunk pen is built on a brass tube. The tube is wrapped with a metal sheet, either bright silver or copper. Then the patches are cut into various sizes and shapes and marked to look like rivets all the way around the patch before being applied to the pen body. At this point the body can be left bright or a black stain can be applied and then wiped off so that it stays in the markings on the body. Then the body is placed in a mold and an epoxy style acrylic like substance is poured over the body and put in a pressure pot at 50psi until the acrylic hardens. Then it is cut to the proper length and diameter then shaped to fit the hardware. From there it is sanded polisher and buffed to a nice finish. These pens are available in our eBay store in a variety of styles and finishes.
