Appreciate your writing tools by encasing them in something a little more sophisticated than plastic, like the featured Pen Type-A. Made specifically for Hi-Tec-C cartridges, which happens to be a favorite among designers and artists, the Pen Type-A is a stainless steel cover that really improves the look and functionality of this pen.
Created by CW&T, the Pen Type-A is made from a solid block of 304 stainless steel. A two-part sleeve, it features a rounded steel part that immediately covers the ink cartridge as well as a boxy outer layer that can also act as a ruler.
