Limited Edition 013

This limited run brings a glossy red Cerakote coating embedded with metallic flakes to Studio Neat's precision writing instruments. The finish covers the barrel in a hardened ceramic polymer that resists scratches and wear while catching light from every angle. A polished stainless steel knock mechanism completes each piece.

You can choose from five configurations. The Mark One comes in aluminum for everyday carry weight or steel when you want heft that anchors your hand. Mark Two adds a bolt-action mechanism and arrives with or without a pocket clip. Mark Three switches to a mechanical pencil with the same finishing treatment. All use the same red flake coating and steel knock.

The Cerakote process bonds at the molecular level, creating a shell that holds up to daily handling. Metallic flakes suspended in the gloss coat shift as you rotate the pen, giving each viewing angle a different play of light. The treatment wraps the entire body, leaving only the knock and any clip hardware bare.

These pens accept standard refills, so you can swap in your preferred ink once the original runs out. The knock mechanism seats firmly and releases with a consistent click. Weight varies by model and material, with the steel Mark One delivering nearly double the mass of its aluminum counterpart.

This edition ships as a pre-order with a two to three month lead time. Once production closes, the red flake finish will not return. Each configuration uses the same coating recipe, so you're choosing between writing styles and carry preferences rather than color options.
