Description Holiday Limited Release Premium pens are perfect gifts for the pen lover in your life, but they usually come with a hefty price tag. We’ve taken that into account with all of our pens, and we think our pricing is as competitive as it gets. No need to go to a boutique and spend over $200 on a “precious resin” rollerball just because it has a name brand or makers mark on it. Buy a fully machined rollerball pen in brass that has a lifetime warranty and is designed to last. The Brass Mk II Modal is back in time for the holidays, and you can make sure the pen person in your life has the ONLY writing instrument they’ll ever need. Fully machined from C360 Brass, the brass Mk II Modal is one of our premium Modal releases. Hand sanded and polished to a high shine, this turns heads and starts conversations. With the added weight from the brass and outfitted with the Pilot G2 refill, you won’t need to apply any pressure to the page to write, just guide the pen across the paper for effortless writing.

The Modal is our latest everyday carry, retractable pen that features several new design and functionality elements. This pen has been the most requested design in the history of our company. From the day our Bolt Kickstarter launched, we were asked if we would ever add a traditional side-actuated bolt-style pen. Our response was always, “Only if we can find a reason to make one in our style because the market is saturated with that style of pen.” It’s been over ten years since the Bolt was released, and we finally found our reasons. Initially, we wanted to create a pen that was roughly the length of the EDK but accepted the Pilot G2 or other 110mm refills. A five-inch length pen is about the shortest pen that is comfortable to the average pen user. Our second reason was that most bolt-style pens on the market use a side button that sticks pretty far out from the body of the pen. The button is uncomfortable and often gets caught on clothing or jabs into your hip if you’re pocket-carrying the pen. Also, for some reason, most of the current bolt-style pens feature a backward J-slot, requiring the user’s thumb to move in a weird motion bringing the button down and back towards the heel of the palm. We designed a button that is oval shaped, with a slightly convex face that is raised just enough off of the body of the pen to be functional but doesn’t interfere with clothing and won’t jab you in the hip. Our J-slot is more of a modified checkmark, and requires the user to simply push their thumb down in a swift motion before the action “catches”. The button is easily retracted with a swift upward motion of the thumb, but the catch on the slot is positive enough that the refill won’t retract during use. Finally, we developed a deep pocket carry clip somewhat resembling the INK clip but fastens via an internal thread that isn’t visible. The internal slider mechanism is machined from Delrin which provides a perfect smooth action. The body, clip, slider, and button are designed and manufactured in our facility in Mesa, Arizona. Where Its Made The Modal is made from C360 Brass on our CNC lathes and Swiss machining centers, in Mesa, Arizona. Pilot refills are manufactured in Japan.
