Black Friday Special Release
The first true Ultra Black INK is back for the annual Black Friday Special Release. Our flagship fountain pen that’s been heavy tumbled for upwards of 6 hours, then sent them off for the full matte black anodized treatment. Not just the caps and bodies, but also the grips and now the clips. Then we’ve assembled these pens with black clips and screws for the yearly release of the Ultra Black INK.
The INK is a full-sized, machined fountain pen that comes in aluminum, brass, and copper. The grip sections are available in several finish and material options so you can customize your pen even more. The thread-on cap uses triple-start threads to securely attach itself to the pen and to allow the removal of the cap with only 1.5 revolutions. The new Sta-Fast cap features an internal silicone o-ring near the threads that seats on a machined flat just past the grip section, and provides a secure, tight fit that keeps the cap from coming unscrewed when pocket carried. Our latest iteration of this pen now includes a fully machined aluminum clip that is anodized in matching colors to the pen bodies. Each pen is designed and machined, by us, here in the USA.
16 Pens Available
The INK is made from 6061-T aluminum on our CNC lathes and Swiss machining centers, in Mesa, Arizona. Schmidt and Bock manufacture their products in Germany. Monteverde cartridges are made in Austria.
The INK, our flagship fountain pen, has gone through numerous iterations since it’s initial design in 2013, some things have remained the same. Pen reviewers used descriptions such as, “tank-like construction”, “ultimate pen”, “unique and stylish with just a hint of bad-ass”, and “an excellent addition to any writing arsenal”, and through all the engineering changes and adjustments, we managed to retain the elements that make up the core DNA of the INK. Some call it industrial and minimalist, which later became everyday carry (EDC) and indestructible; our mindset at the time was maximizing function and form on a machined fountain pen that “felt” like a Karas Kustoms product. The result was, and still is, a pen that really stands out. Even as fountain pens have exploded in popularity with thousands of new pens and pen designs hitting the market, the INK fits in an aesthetic and utilitarian category all it’s own.
