What do you get when custom knife maker Darriel Caston gives the world of the written word a shot? An exceptionally slick pen.

Produced and sold by the longtime (300 years and counting) blade makers at Böker Plus, the new Rocket Pen sports an oval-shaped body for easy and varied grip and it employs a clever but minimal bolt-action pen barrel release. It isn’t glossy or likely to attract eyeballs from those around — a formula for the perfect everyday pen.

The Rocket Pen is available in black anodized aluminum or brass now on the Böker Plus site.
