Limited Release
After a successful test of Blood Orange (H-322) Cerakote last year, we’re finally adding more pens with this unique color. The previous Blood Orange releases were very popular and sold out quickly, but we’ve held off on releasing more of the color for a variety of reasons, one being we need the right pens to really show off this pen. The Pocket Modal is one of those pens.
The Blood Orange Pocket Modal is a limited release Pocket Modal with Blood Orange (H-322) professionally applied to these pens. Expertly applied, the uniform finish is “a deep fiery orange with shimmering metallic”. Similar to the metallic Cerakote finishes like Northern Lights and Blue Titanium, Blood Orange is shimmery but not shiny providing a unique look that is very different than the Hunter Orange we normally feature. These look awesome and feel great, no slippery surface on them at all or any shine. We’re pairing them with matte black anodized clips and buttons and black Delrin sliders. Ships with a Schmidt P8126 refill with black ink.

The Pocket Modal is made from 6061-T aluminum on our CNC lathes and Swiss machining centers, in Mesa, Arizona. Schmidt refills are manufactured in Germany.
While considering how best to allow for the standard Parker style ballpoint refill to be used with the Modal functionality, we debated on whether to simply offer an adapter kit or to go further and have a separate pen. In the long run, we decided to do both because we realized the separate pen could be a smaller pocket pen that was still balanced well and super functional. We used the EDK lower barrels which allows for the use of the traditional Parker style ballpoint refills and the Schmidt P8126/7 refills which are popular liquid ink refill option. This pen is nearly 0.5 inches shorter than the standard Modal, but still fits comfortably in the hand. It’s even easier to carry in a pocket with the pocket carry clip. And it will feature a similar material and color scheme as our EDK pens use, primarily tumbled finishes and matte anodize.
