The Journeyman Pen from Wingback, Now Live on Kickstarter! (Sponsor)

The Journeyman Pen from Wingback is live on Kickstarter right now, and has already crossed the $80,000 mark, with four weeks left to go. Why has this pen seen such a hot start? It’s simple - Wingback makes great products.

One of the original reasons for setting up Wingback was to bring users into the design process as much as possible, and create a bespoke product that will be treasured for perpetuity. For the first time ever, they are bringing customization down to a component level, so you can create something truly bespoke. You’ll be able to choose the metal for the barrel, crown and clip, allowing you to mix and match Brass, Stainless Steel and Black Steel. Titanium will be available only as a complete product. They are also offering customized engraving of up to 35 characters along the length of the clip and on the Pen Rest.

All of the details and specs can be found on their Kickstarter campaign page, so go check it out for yourself and see the everything The Journeyman has to offer.

My thanks to Wingback for sponsoring The Pen Addict this week.
