The crack is on the underside of blank, can't feel it only see it , otherwise ca was the answer.

Going to dismantle it tomorrow and make them again using a Conway Stewart Blank,
good thing is you get 2 pens out of one blank, may try a similar green like a what looks like British Racing Green ??
I think goes well with the Gun metal.
