We have had these pens for some time, just got a chance to make a "sample" and put the pen "up" on the website.

Nice looking and a "head to head" competitor for the Jr. Statesman, about 40% more affordable!! Take a look, here: https://www.exoticblanks.com/triton-rollerball-pen-kit-hardite-gold-with-chrome-accents.html

Hmm...I'm a bit saddened by this. I've found Hardite to have much more of a "greenish" look to it, that just doesn't look like gold, whereas the TiGold definitely has that nice yellowish gold look to it. I assume since this "replaces" TiGold, that means there won't be any more TiGold in the future? šŸ˜¢

I have also been trying to get some concrete info on this...but, "hardite" is not even gold, as far as I can tell? Where Ti-Gold is actually an alloy of titanium and gold, real gold...hardite is an alternative metal compound that has zero gold in it?

If this means the actual end of all TiGold Tritons, that makes me very, very sad. šŸ˜­
