Welcome To Cyber Space Pens Regulus Major Series Pen in Legionnaire Acrylic With Rhodium & Black Titanium Nitride Hardware This is a handmade pen by Katie Manrique from the Regulus Major Series. She turned the pen cap from an acrylic blank called Legionnaire and chose Rhodium with Black Titanium Nitride accents for the hardware. The Regulus Major pen is a non posted pen, meaning the cap does not fits on the other end of the pen when the point is exposed for writing. In this case it screws on capped ends. The Rhodium pocket clip has a Swarovski Crystal inlay, and the engraved bands and end cap are Black Titanium Nitride. This series is a large impressive pen made from the most exquisite components that produces a handmade pen that exceeds the expectations of even the most discriminating collector. Because no two blanks are exactly the same, we roll the pen and take photos so that you can see what the pen looks like all the way around. The pen is 6" long with the cap on. With the cap off for writing the pen is 5 & 3/16” long. The pen body diameter is 0.615" and cap diameter 0.685". Every handmade pen comes with a certificate of authenticity and instructions for changing the ink cartridge. To change the ink it unscrew the pen tip and then the ink cartridge pulls out. There is a Schmidt Safety Ceramic #888 Roller Ball Ink cartridge in the pen. #143 The box we chose for this pen is a black stitched leatherette box that is satin lined with holding step and hinged as shown in the photos. The box can be laser engraved however you want it, a Name, Monogram, company logo, or personal message. Laser engraving is included on the box. We have engraved one with our name for demonstration, but you can have what you want engraved there. Things you should know about hand made pens ►Making the Pens: So that you may better understand the process involved in making a pen by hand the following information will explain the process. The blanks come in blocks approximately 3/4" X 3/4" X 5" some smaller and some larger, and must put in a lathe and have a hole drilled to the proper size, trimmed to length, then a brass tube gets pressed into the blank to house the transmission. Then back into the lathe to have the outside turned to accept all the hardware, then sealed and polished to achieve a quality finish. All of these procedures require very precise tolerances to be made. A handmade pen from a craftsman's lathe is a real thing of beauty. You would not believe the weight and feel of these pens in contrast to production run pens. The beauty of these pens and the feel of them cannot be fully appreciated in pictures. When we sell these in a person-to-person environment they outsell other pens in their price group. We hope that you will enjoy these pens as much as we do . ►The Hardware: Handmade pens are made from manufactured hardware and sold through several companies. The hardware is put into kits so that all the parts work together to make the pen look good and function properly. There is a transmission in the pen to advance and detract the tip with the twist or click. A cheap transmission can ruin a good pen. Many kits look alike but are made by different companies, some are quality and some, not so much. We will not use second rate kits to save a few bucks. These kits come in a variety of finishes and price ranges. There is painted hardware, gold colored, antique copper, chrome, brushed chrome, and satin chrome. Then there are precious metals like, 22ct. gold, 24ct. gold, gold titanium nitride, black titanium nitride, rhodium and platinum. These Precious metals make the pen more expensive obviously. We try to offer a wide variety of pens in a variety of price ranges so that we can have something to meets everyone's needs. ► Acrylic Pens: There are hundreds of different acrylic blanks out there. Some very simple, one solid color, and some blended colors. Yet that is just the tip of the ice berg. Many of them are 3D, have metallic finishes, colored threads, coffee beans, yes real coff... read more
