The beauty in this, is that you get to choose your own wood. Then you choose your pen kit material and if youd like to have it engraved that can be done as well.

Wood from all over the world turned into exquisite works of art. These pens are beautiful as well as well as tough and hardy. All of the pens are turned on The Bearded Craftsman's wood lathe and are made from exotic woods sourced globally. Each pen is unique in its own way, from mixed exotic woods to full acrylic pens. Each pen is also equipped with a replaceable cartridge. The pens Cartridge can be replaced by simply pulling the pen at each end until it comes apart. Then the cartridge will be exposed and seen as a black splined shaft. Twist the splined shaft counterclockwise until the cartridge comes out. Then screw the new cartridge in and push the two pieces of your pen back together.

Maple wood has the most robust blonde colored wood that makes such a pretty pen. Some of the maple even has a little burl to it that adds a little darkness to the grain. Commonly used in bowling allies and in high end furniture maple has proven itself durable enough to stand with the big hitters of hardwood. I've even seen it used in old truck beds at car shows with great success.

Walnut wood is a very strong and durable wood that stains well and is hard enough to take intricate carvings. It has a dark grain color and is straight up beautiful as a gun stock or for knick knacks around the house. Interestingly enough walnut is mainly used to make wooden sunglasses, go figure. This time we used it in a pen and the results are simply stunning.

Mexican Ebony is a dark black wood that also has a purplish tint to it and is considered a hardwood. In fact it hits 3660 on the Janka Hardness scale, this rating is just about as hard as wood gets. With a rating like that it basically makes mexican ebony perfect for kitchens and knife handles as well as pens because it is essentially waterproof and unbreakable.

Bog Oak is an ancient wood that is found in the bog fens of England, dating back somewhere in the 4 to 6 thousand years old range.

Sapele wood originated in West Africa and is a perfect substitute for genuine Mahogany. It's from the same family and resembles it enough in color and grain to be a substitute. Sapele is a much more readily available wood than Mahogany and way more cost effective, which makes it perfect for pen turning and it is really pretty to boot.

Purpleheart wood is actually purple! Native to Central and South America this tree is tremendously popular for furniture cutting boards and things like pens. It's basically rot resistant so it is perfect for durability and longevity.

Acrylic is a very durable and lightweight material and because it is poured into molds the color options are basically limited. The acrylic material is an excellent choice for people that want a little something different than exotic wood. As far as durability goes the acrylic should never deteriorate or rot which makes for a pen that can be used for decades to come.

None of these pens are made with “all” of these materials obviously. But ALL of these pens have been made with these materials. For example; a pen wont have every single wood in it, but may be made from just acrylic, or just bloodwood
