Crimson Patina Modal Distressed Series
New Special Release
Due to the popularity of distressed Cerakote on our heavily worn (nicked, scratched, dented) pens, we're turning this into a "series" of pens. The Distressed Editions will be official small run Cerakote releases, featuring a variety of two-color Cerakote finishes. The Crimson Patina is a brand new custom combination from Aaron over at Area15 that uses distressed Crimson over Satin Aluminum (yes, it's aluminum paint on an aluminum pen, but it makes sense) that creates a unique HEAVILY worn auto-paint look and feel.
The Crimson Patina Distressed Modal is our Modal pen featuring heavily worn aluminum body with a custom Cerakote application. A coat of Satin Aluminum (H-151) is put down first and partially cured. a coat of Crimson (H-221) is applied over the Satin Aluminum and that is partially cured. The Crimson is then removed by hand with an acetone soaked Scotch Brite pad. The results are a wearing away of the Crimson and revealing the silver of the base paint beneath, however, all of the dings and dents hold the Crimson which darkens from the force wearing process. The result is a unique look on every pen, especially since these got Aaron's most intense wearing process that really highlights the distressed markings. The use of Satin Aluminum Cerakote rather than just base aluminum provides a uniform color that will wear over time. Tumbled aluminum clips and buttons have been selected for this release and a black Delrin slider. Ships with a Pilot G2 refill with black ink.

A New Darkhorse
Our latest addition is our take on the traditional bolt-action pen with a side button and deep-pocket clip. The Modal took over half a decade to bring to fruition with so many iterations along the way, we didn't know if it would ever make it to production. Our initial sketches for this pen go back to 2018, and Josh created a crude prototype in early 2019. Those pens look nothing like the finished product, and it took a lot of thinking outside the box to finally get the version of the Modal you see today. The upper body of this pen is one of the most intricate and time-consuming pieces we've ever designed. The upper body and clip went through six separate engineering changes from launch until the design was finalized in 2025. Externally the pens look nearly identical with the current production models being 1/8" longer than the original. The Modal is on pace to overtake the Bolt for our bestselling pen just a few years into its existence. Currently we're updating standardized versions for late-2026 release as well as planning out a full slate of special and limited releases through early-2027.
