T.G.S. x Sunderland Machine Works mk1 (Now Shipping!)
The Sunderland mk1 is a machined pen tailored to the executive rather than the “tactical” market - in other words, this pen is designed for putting words on the page as opposed to breaking the glass out of a car window or serving as an improvised tactical weapon. The pen features smooth lines and a patent-pending internally threaded cap that make it absolutely one of my favorite pens on the market, and a natural choice for my first T.G.S. Pen Collaboration! The initial release sold so well that we brought this pen back.
This T.G.S.-exclusive version of the Sunderland mk1 features a bead-blasted finish, with a matte black barrel, matte red/burgundy grip section, and DLC-coated matte clip. As with all Sunderland pens, the body is manufactured from 6061 aluminum and the clip from 17-4 stainless steel, both of which lend the pen exceptional durability.
The Sunderland mk1 measures 5.2” closed, 4.9” unposted, and 5.8” posted; and weighs .8oz with the Pilot G2 refill included. Main body diameter is .44”, and hourglass section diameter is .36”.
Made in the USA.
Features of the Sunderland mk1:
Hidden Cap Threads. The key feature of the Sunderland mk1 are the cap threads hidden inside the tip of the pen, allowing the user to screw the cap on securely without having to worry about external threads that mar the streamlined design or interfere with the user’s grip.
Superior Postability. If you’re like me, you want the option to post your pen, especially a gel pen or rollerball. The interior of the cap features a protective plastic sheath that allows you to post the cap on the barrel of the pen, without scratching or metal-on-metal noises.
Refill Compatibility. Each pen ships with a Black Pilot G2 refill in the .7mm tip size. The Sunderland mk1 also accepts Montblanc Rollerball and Fineliner cartridges, as well as the popular Pilot G2 series of cartridges.
