Made to outlast you.
A Tactile Turn titanium bolt action, rebuilt the Dark Pines way. We start with the USA-machined titanium body that put this pen on every EDC list, then cut a custom multi-level laser pattern through the barrel and clip and color anodized. Each pen is finished with our oversized, deeply textured Grade 5 titanium thumbstud.
STANDARD VS SHORT
• Standard (5.6") — Every Standard in this run is the same. Same laser pattern. Same color. What you see for Standard is what ships.
• Short (5.1") — Every Short is different. Colors and patterns are unique to that pen. Each Short pen is a one-off, totally custom laser pattern. No two alike and no duplicates will ever be made. Please be aware of this when ordering. You will receive one of the pens pictured. No special requests granted!

THE THUMBSTUD
Stock bolts are fine. These are better. Oversized Grade 5 titanium with an aggressive texture so you can run the bolt with wet hands, gloves, or grit. Same stud we sell separately — already installed.
NOTES
Standards match. Shorts do not. If you want a specific Short, message us with the photo that matches the pen you want. Anodize will wear at high-contact edges over years of carry; the laser geometry stays. These are complete pens, ready to write and carry.
