Description
Here is the perfect gift for anyone interesting in fly fishing. The meticulously handcrafted finish metal components featuring a fly rod as the clip, a reel on the top with a fishing scene around the top cap. a n angler at the riverside design is on the pen tip. The Antique Pewter finish is formulated to simulate the sophisticated sheen of time-worn pewter. The authentic patina and natural darkening brings out the details of the finish and creates a unique feel with a charm all its own.
Simply twist the fishing scene on the top of the pen to extend and retract the writing tip.
The body of the pen was made using a piece of Walnut recovered from a broke shotgun stock. After having turned the blank to size it was sanded with steadily reducing grit size papers before coating with sanding sealer to fix the grain. Against abrasive paper of 1200 grit was used to de-nib the surface before eight coats of Melamine laquer were applied to give a hardwearing surface.
The black ink is contained in a standard ‘Parker’ type refill which can be accessed by carefully unscrewing the tip to reveal the refill. Replacement is simply a reverse of the process.
