Chosen by CarbonFG It was on the list first.

This started as a list of things worth owning. This one we found, and it never came off.

A matte, checkerboard-weave carbon fiber barrel set against SS304 stainless steel, so the two materials meet right where your thumb works the bolt.

About CarbonFG

Why you'll love it

Six things worth knowing.

  • Weave against bright steelThe barrel is real carbon fiber in a matte plain weave, and it runs straight into SS304 stainless steel at the bolt.
  • It has real weightAt 64 grams, customers bring it up a lot. One took off a star for being heavier than expected.
  • One thumb, either handThe tip comes out and goes away with the hand already holding the pen, so you never need a second one to put it in a pocket.
  • Swap in a Parker refillIt takes Parker-type G2 refills, 98mm x 5.8mm. Pilot G2 is a different refill that happens to share the name, and it does not fit.
  • Boxed to giveIt comes in a black gift box with a custom cutout for the pen, so it is ready to hand over without wrapping anything first.
  • An all-metal bolt, warrantiedThe bolt mechanism is all metal, and the pen carries a lifetime manufacturer warranty against manufacturing defects.

You can sign your name with anything, and most days you do, usually with whatever was in the cup by the register. A pen only gets noticed when it does something the others do not. On this one that means a matte carbon fiber barrel running into SS304 stainless steel, and a bolt under your thumb where the click button would be.

Since 2007 we have specialized in carbon fiber, which is why the barrel is what we looked at first: a real plain weave with a matte finish, so the checkerboard shows without a gloss coat over it. One thumb, in either hand, brings the tip out and the bolt locks there while you write. It takes Parker-type G2 refills, not Pilot G2. At 64 grams it has weight, and customers say so, not always as a compliment: one review took off a star because it is heavier than expected.

If you want that weight and steel against weave, this is the version. If you want all black, look at the black version. It comes in a black gift box with a lifetime manufacturer warranty against manufacturing defects, and it gets noticed the first time you sign something in front of someone. Add it to your cart.

01 / 03

Weave meets steel

A matte plain weave runs the length of the barrel, then stops at SS304 stainless steel. That contrast is the whole look of this version.

02 / 03

Yes, it has weight

64 grams in the hand. Customers keep bringing it up, usually as the reason they like the pen, and once as the reason for four stars instead of five.

03 / 03

Boxed and ready

It comes in a black gift box with a cutout for the pen, so handing it over takes no wrapping and no explaining.
