Gentleman pen substitute?

[SkewedUp]

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

The Diamond Knurl from Exotic Blanks would be my suggestion.

I like those a lot but they are the same size as a Jr Gent, which I like a lot too, but I'm looking for something bigger.

Well then you might like the Roman Harvest pens. They are a pretty large pen.

I think that I still have one Majestic that I will never turn. Sorry it's a Majestic Jr. Rhodium and Black Ti.

@SkewedUp , I have some of the larger Artisan Gentleman kits I may be willing to part with if you're interested. Titanium Gold and Rhodium plated.

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 for checking Bob.

Yes Jeremy, I am interested. Can you send a PM with details. Thanks!

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.

Thanks Gary. I'm looking at it. I have made a few Statesman pens from CSUSA and liked them almost as much as the Gentleman's pen kit. I'm worried that Exotic Blanks were getting their Statesman pens from CSUSA and those may not be available in the future.

in addition to the suggestions above, maybe an Atrax?

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.

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.
