A minimal everyday pen, over-engineered to last generations.
The ultimate pen for illustrators, designers, and architects.
Precision machined to create a piston-like effect between the pen and sleeve. The pen falls slowly and makes a nice popping sound when you pull it quickly from its sleeve.
No visible logo.
Precision machined flat so it won't roll off your desk.
A super minimal everyday pen, engineered to last generations.
The ultimate pen for illustrators, designers, and architects.
The ultra-high machining tolerances between the pen and sleeve create a piston-like effect. The pen falls slowly into its sleeve and makes a nice popping sound when you pull it out quickly.
Pen Type-B has no visible logo.
The brass sleeve purposely doesn't have a coating, so your Pen Type-B can develop its own unique patina over time as you handle your pen.
Titanium Pen Type-B is available with a matte black ceramic-polymer coating (Cerakote). The coating is durable, but over time it will wear to reveal the titanium underneath. We think it gives a kind of cool and rugged feel.
Pen Type-B in titanium weighs almost half the weight of its brass and stainless steel counterpart. It's got the hardness of stainless steel and the lightness of aluminum. That's really hard to beat. Titanium is the ultimate material. Both the sleeve and the pen are made of titanium.
Order a Pen Type-B with a custom laser engraving on the flat surface of the pen sleeve.
Available with an aluminum case.

To replace the ink cartridge, simply unscrew the back of the pen with a coin.

ThailandAMAZING AND ICONIC PRODUCT
AMAZING, This pen is wayyyy better than the pen type-a. It looks so amazing and beautiful. I love it although it writes poorly but everything is good. It still makes that interesting sound like the type a. Buying this pen is definitely better than buying those expensive pens like parker or waterman. It’s expensive but it is worth its price (if it writes better and supports many refils). Overall, very unique and amazing
United StatesAbout the Pen (type B)
It's great, though I can't in good conscience admit to the price paid to get the Orange Cerakote... but I thrill every time the moment approaches requiring a pen, because you bet I'm gonna draw that bad boy from a pocket with a fluorescent flourish and unsheathe it like Excalibur with a deafening *pop* that precipitates riots, mass hysteria, and embarrassment for my kids.
United StatesSTOP - This situation needs fixing.
AUGUST 2024 README. This pen is beautful. HOWEVER you need to know: 1. The refills for the pen, as shipped, are no longer available for sale. https://www.jetpens.com/blog/Hi-Tec-C-A-Comprehensive-Guide/pt/629 See the midpoint in this link and as of 2022 the refills are not available. Yet, no update on what CW&T is shipping their pen with! Two years later. 2. The linked refills for the TYPE C pen are widely available, but you need a spacer that IS NOT SHIPPED WITH THIS PEN to use them. And the spacer situation is not linked off the TYPE A TYPE B page either. https://cwandt.com/products/pen-adapter?variant=1483599052815 And I would have no idea how to select it since the actual model is not listed widely using the words on the site. No bueno. Imagine as - as I have - receiving a pen with a faulty first ink cartridge, going on amazon and excitedly buying the type c refill only to discover the only available plan to replace the ink as shipped is to buy a pen, fleece its cartridge, throw out the pen body, and put it in your pen. Or "saw a dowel to the required length"... for a $200 pen? B
SwedenRip off
I have waited three months and paid over 250 dollars in shipping fees, and STILL havent gotten my Pen type B.
United StatesOne of the best pens!!!
I have tried a lot of expensive pens. But not all of them are created equal. This pen is above all the rest. It. Is. Fantastic. It is so well-built. It is worth every penny.
