Wenge Ballpoint Pen - B Grade (50% off)

If you'd like to see the full process of how these pens were made, check out the link here: https://youtu.be/9vUZ9WnyFw0

This ballpoint pen was made from wenge, an extremely hard wood with a brilliant grain pattern of black and dark brown wood. This pen was finished with 12 coats of thin cyanoacrylate (thin super glue), making it highly durable, virtually waterproof, and stain resistant. The owner of this pen should be cautious about letting it fall on hard surfaces, though, such as concrete, tile, or stone, as the finish may scratch or even crack. Comes with a single one-time use ink cartridge (black ink).

Imperfections and Price Reduction

During the final assembly process, the CA finish on the wenge blank suffered a small crack just in front of the nib when the nib and the blank were pressed together. Although it is unlikely this small crack (shown in the 3rd picture) will grow, we can't guarantee that, and as such, this pen is being offered at a 50% price reduction.

Cleaning & Maintenance

For dust and dry debris, these pens should be cleaned off with a soft microfiber cloth or towel. If applying water to the towel, be sure to quickly dry the pen off once finished cleaning. While the cyanoacrylate finish on these pens is completely waterproof, this finish is only present on the outside of the pens and not in the seams between the bamboo/resin portions and the metal kit parts (thus, water may seep inside). For any light scratches that may develop on the pen with prolonged or heavy use, the original gloss can be restored by using a micro fine polishing paste, such as a plastic polish, or an automotive polishing product, such as Meguiars PlastX Plastic Cleaners.

DO NOT use any product containing acetone or similar solvents as these products will dissolve the pen finish.
