This is my first Kojent ballpoint pen, in gun metal, from Woodcraft. The blank is called Liquid Metal, also from Woodcraft. I like it, but I'm a fan of big hefty pens.

The blank is different than any I've turned before. It looks like the color is inside, with clear acrylic on the outside. Different.

That kit kit reminds me of an old one but I can't think which one, albeit different platings and clip still familiar.
Make that blank go away dad.

You're right, Woody, it is reminiscent of the flat top American, albeit much larger diameter. I made quite a few of them in years past, but didn't see the likeness until you mentioned it.

Very nice, and well turned, but I must get my eyesight checked I though it said Kojak Ball point.

Give yourself a lollipop.

Looks a very nice pen, the combination certainly goes together well. Very nice finish and the blank does seem to have an unusual effect.

There's just no pleasing you init. :winking: Has there ever been an acrylic blank you do like?

It ain't me you have to please init?

Yes there have been many acrylics I do like but don't tell anyone.
It's all façade but don't let on.
