Jr. Gent Ballpoint Pen Kit

[aggromere]

In looking for another type of twist pen to add to my line of pens I found a Jr. Gent Ballpoint Pen Kit. I think it will fit the bill for me. Have I just never looked through that section of CSUSA's web site or is it a new kit. anyone made one? any comments on it? Is it the same quality as the other dayacom kits?

It's pretty good, but certainly a pen for heavier handed people, and a little top heavy.

I bought two kits and made one. I don't like it, way to heavy and unbalanced.

I have made it for two customers who both love the size and weight.

It is available in 10KT and rhodium.

I personally have avoided the 10kt.

Sold a few at shows, but made them as alternatives to the cigar--showed each as a "boxed" higher-end offering.

I've made a few. They look good IMHO.

I just bought 10 from you Ed, the rhodium ones. See if you can throw in a few extra tubes incase I screw them up. I guess since you didn't have a picture posted I never paid attention to the name of the kit and just thought it was another jr gent. My customers love the big and hefty feel of the cigar pen kit, so this will be perfect.

Here's a pic of one of my finished Jr Gent twist ballpoints. I've sold about a dozen of these. They are (imho) a nice upgrade compared to the Cigar kits, with both the upscale plating using rho/22k and a smoother transition at the center coupler, as well as a much more refined clip. I've not tried one of the 10K platings.

I don't find them to sell all that well by themselves, but they make a very nice match for a full sized gent FP. They are about the same length as the fs, and can be fitted with a schmidt .5mm pencil insert, or left as a parker ballpoint refill.
