The Savage Pen Company Debut!
Permalink Closed


Our beginnings as human beings go back to two great achievements, the creation of the first tools-- axes and simple blades made of stone, obsidian and flint--and the first art--handprints and paintings on cave walls, animals carved from bone, and marks and symbols that would later become writing. We call these times beyond history "savage" or "primitive," but when we hold a beautifully carved stone tool we know we are touching elegance and our deepest roots.

Now Savage Pens re connects us to the roots of writing, art and the beginning of man. Lovingly made with the same materials our earliest pen crafting ancestors used. Created at the highest standards of the pen-maker's art using the best of modern technology, With each of these unique hand-made pens we hope to join you to the past and future of our writing heritage.

7 1/2" capped, 6 1/2" uncapped. 3/4" od barrel. Slip cap design.

Nib choices are Schmidt F,M,B in plain steel, 2 tone steel and 14K GP. If you do not care for modern or steel nibs, I will happily retrofit your 14K nib to the pen gratis.


Ink volume is a staggering 8ML, (eye dropper filled via included blunt syringe) The internal reservoir is a non removable boroscilicate/Pyrex vial.

The pen pictured is made from straight grain Ivory Celluloid. (The grain is hard to see in the direct sunlight pics) I am using rod stock from AmericanArtPlastics.com. Please peruse their Hard Rubber and Celluloid pages for available material choices. Also I will be doing a few pieces in Aluminum and Terellium Copper as well.

Each pen comes with one of my custom pen case/holsters

Price is $300

Domestic USA shipping $10.00 insured w/ delivery confirmation.
International shipping $20.00 w/ tracking

Please allow 4 weeks for delivery.

To order contact me at vintagedelights01@gmail.com or feel free to call 573 286 0290 between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM (central US time zone)


As an incentive to purchase and my small way of saying thank you for your support. The first 5 people to buy a Savage pen will get a $50.00 discount on ALL future purchases for the life of The Savage Pen Company.




















Nib Nib says you'll love this pen!

Congrats! That one looks great. The holder is also cute.

Suggestion: Get a photographer. I am far from being the best one around and have taken nicer pictures than that. Your general indea, though, is fantastic. That cut-tree background adds a lot of feel and texture.

HTH.

Martin

Thanks Martin. I've had a couple of offers to shoot my pens, I need to decide who's going to get to do it for me.

I want to start things moving with these pens!

TFPC members only special.

The first 5 forum members to buy get the pen and case for $250 shipped world wide.

I'd also love to hear any thoughts or comments you may on the pen, good, bad or other.

Thanks

Dennis, I like the pen's size and capacity, but in all honesty it doesn't appeal to me visually. The material is lovely, but it calls for a more curvaceous shape for the body and cap, which is pretty chunky in comparison to the section.

If the cap was a smoother torpedo or bullet shape rather than the conic sections. and if the barrel had a smoothly-transitioned round end, and/or some more curvature to it, I would find it much more appealing.

Of course, taken to extremes you'd pretty much have an OS Balance ... smile.gif
