This bullet pen is hand turned using a piece of Oak wood in my own UK workshops. The pen styled upon a bullet and has a high-quality chrome-plated trim with a copper-plated tip. Advance the ball point with the pens rifle bolt mechanism. At the top, a scoped rifle for the pens clip and a copper insert to mimic the percussion cap.
The wood needs mounting on the lathe and hand turning to round and shape. Once shaped it needs sanding through to 400 grit and then up to 8 coatings of Ca glue applying. This then needs polishing to 12000 using micro mesh for a super hard and durable high gloss finish. This writing implement uses a Parker style G2 medium point black ink refill available from any good stationery suppliers.
All my unique wooden pens come in a presentation box as the standard. With every piece of wood different, these pens will make great gift ideas and unique wooden gifts for him on a 5th wedding anniversary or fans of shooting video games.
Please note if the pictured pen has sold another of the same wood will be sent. With the natural nature of the material, your item may differ slightly with the grain pattern and colour.

Thank you for your feedback. Just to be clear this pen is an awkward shape for the moulded insert. Going forward I will use another box style in future.
