I have made some Gentleman pens from CSUSA but they are not carrying them anymore. Has anyone found any good substitute? I like to have a few large rollerball/fountain pens on my table at craft shows. I especially like that I can easily swap out a rollerball for a fountain pen for a customer if needed. I do not care for the Majestic pens from PSI - I want a MANLY Gentleman's pen ;)

Turner's Warehouse has the senior gentleman, which is a full-size gentleman pen.




At the higher end, Exotic Blanks offers full-size (Dayacom?) models such as the Statesman, Emperor, Harold, etc.

 
If you do not like the Majestic, then my vote would be for the full sized Harold. A very resonable priced kit for basically a very little blinged out kit which I consider more manly.

Thanks JT! I will give that kit a try...not sure about how well I will like the threads. I also like the Gentlemans ability to change to FP easily. I did not see a FP option at Exotic Blanks.

Seeing your name again brought back some memories of the good old days on the woodworking.com forum.

Thanks Hooked.

I will try it. Seems too good to be true for the price. I might not like the threads but its definitely worth a try.

Exotics lists the Statesman which is a very good quality and masculine pen kit.

Jeremy came through with some CSUSA Gentlemen's Roller Ball pens that should keep me going for quite a while until I can choose another pen kit.

I still could use some Fountain Pen Gentlemen's kits if anyone has any.

Thanks again to Jeremy for coming through for me just like always happens here at IAP.
 
Thanks Tony I have not ever tried one, but I think the Atrax is similar in size to the Jr Gent and I'm looking for something bigger.
they accept the same bushings' they just appear fatter. I don't knowwhat i was thinking. i would visit the dayacom site and see what you can find. you may be able to find a distribitor that sellls one of their heftier pens. Beaufort Ink may be designing a more substantial style. Please let us know. Dayacom

I may have a few Gent fountains. If so, they are in Dayacom bags--not the CSUSA branding. Will try to remember to look on Friday morning.
