Pocket Modal Special Release

Sometimes it takes three or four tries to get things done correctly. That’s the tale of the Matte Olive Green Pocket Modal. We sent the initial batch of Pocket Modals to the anodizer for matte olive green all the way back in February. Unfortunately, those received standard matte green anodize. Our next two replacement batches we sent out ended up needing rework or not having all the parts sent in the same batch so the anodize didn’t match at all. We can finally announce the launch of the Matte Olive Green Pocket Modal, the pens are here, they look incredible, we’re excited to feature this pen.

The Matte Olive Green Pocket Modal follows in the footsteps of the Matte Olive Green EDK which was the first official color we added to the EDK about a year after we launched the EDK. The plan for the EDK was always to only feature tumbled and matte anodize looks as the primary color schemes, and only have Tumbled Aluminum and Matte Black as our two main aluminum options. We’d rotate other colors, and we eventually added Matte Olive Green as a semi-standard color option, though we’ve since relegated that color to once or twice a year in very small production runs. The Matte Olive Green Modal will have a similar story, we’ll release this once or twice a year with some variance of hardware options, but it will be a Special Release and not a standard release option. For our first version, we’ve gone with the matte black hardware option and black Delrin slider. Select from a variety of refills when configuring your pen.

The Pocket Modal is made from 6061-T aluminum on our CNC lathes and Swiss machining centers, in Mesa, Arizona. Schmidt refills are made in Germany.

The Pocket Modal follows quickly behind the Modal production release and features the same elements as the standard pen. A modified “checkmark” J-slot with low-profile oval button and a Delrin slider. The combination of these three elements makes for extremely quick and smooth deployment of the refill. Likewise, it takes a simple flick of the thumb to retract the refill making the pen ready for pocket carry. The pocket carry clip means there isn’t anything sticking out of your pocket that will bind up or catch on anything. With the tumbled and matte finishes, the Pocket Modal makes for a perfect field pen no matter what the weather is like. Select from a variety of ballpoint refills or the liquid ink Schmidt P8126/7 refills to customize this pen to your heart’s desire. The body, clip, slider, and button are designed and manufactured in our facility in Mesa, Arizona.
