The Ko-Axis Rail Pen is a unique writing tool that is a distinguished blend of metal and emotion. The intriguing design of the pen was built solely around ergonomics as the flat, wide, rectangular geometry and low-profile carry all work together to create an incredibly comfortable writing experience. By switching over to a rectangular shape, the Ko-Axis Rail Pen stops cramping in the fingers and embraces the hand in a more natural way that provides long term comfort.
The actuation of the Ko-Axis Rail Pen is an entirely unique and doubles as the carrier for the ink cartridge. The magnetic twin-rail mechanism features an indent for simple extension and retractions, and is held tightly in place to prevent accidental retraction. The ink refill is simple to use and requires no tools, and the pen is built around an easy to change D1 refill system.
