Very nice pens, I would go with Atraxi.
Atraxes sounds like a dinosaur.
Btw, your job sounds terrible, making pens and selling blanks.:biggrin::biggrin:

Looking good Ed. Not quite sure on that fit :wink:, but the finish looks great!
I'd go with Attracts, as that is what they do to the eye.

I think the multiple of Atrax in this instance is Atrax.

I agree with Carl... for me it's one of those words where singular & plural are the same, anything else sounds kinda wierd,
Atrax pen, Atrax pens.
whatever you call them they're pretty :cool: looking pens!

They look great Ed! I also agree with Carl and when you use it in a sentence it makes sense. "I saw a herd of Atrax on my way to the office today!" :)
 
Well Ed, since it is a name not unlike sierra, it depends a little on how it is used. If you think people will use Atrax as a proper name and say Atrax pens...no change in the word at all.

If you think people will use Atrax as an ordinary noun rather than a proper name (as happened with Sierra, whichI doubt that you want) so that the item itself becomes an atrax rather than a pen, multiple items will be whatever the buyers use. I think that would be atrax - same word singular or plural.

I personally think Atraxi sounds like a different name rather than a plural and folks would start using Atraxis or Atraxice (like di/dice) to denote the plural.
 
I'd go with Atrax, as long as their side by each,just preface them with "dose" as in
Put dose Atrax dare,side by each,you.
Both my grandparents were Canadian so grammar was not my strong suit,but it come in handy now and again being bilingual,no?
 
Does not matter,A well turned pen ( like the above ) speak for themselves.
You can call them Ed's mystery kit and people will want them.
Which brings up a good point,Where does it say it has to be called Atrax?
Atrax does sound cool though, But basically it is a time proven communication device that
functions during Disaster power outages,
