When it came to crafting a pen, Dorian Creations decided to make the design look bad ass by creating a bullet pen. What you see is in fact a real bullet that has been transformed into a writing utensil. For gun fanatics, the ammunition is a Winchester .308 brass bullet casing. Additional design elements include a rifle clip, a copper tip and cap.
The bullet pen by Dorian Creations is available in different colors and cap designs on Etsy.
