At Irish Pens, we take pride in honouring the native Irish wood used in every handcrafted pen by sponsoring the planting of indigenous trees in the woodlands of Avoca, County Wicklow — one of Ireland’s most scenic forest regions. In collaboration with the Tree Council of Ireland, a portion of your purchase directly supports this national tree-planting initiative, helping to preserve and renew Ireland’s natural heritage for future generations.
“The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The next best time is today”

This is one of the best pen I've ever owned.
The size and shape is similar to Faber Castell E-motion, but this one is noticeably heavier and rugged.There aren't any sigle part made of plastic.
The black titanium grip feels comfortable, and is of slightly darker color compared to chrome-plated trims.I love the matte finish of its bog oak body, which feels more natural and authentic than plastic-coated ones.
Thanks Richard.
