Minimal

Nothing in the way.

Mark Three has a seamless body, with a matte black or white finish, and the cap on the end is polished steel, either plain or coated in PVD copper. No logos or excessive ornamentation to be found here. We consider it a sibling to our Mark One retractable pen, and they will look great on a desk next to each other.

Durable

Made to last a lifetime.

Mark Three is incredibly durable. It is made entirely out of metal, and coated with Cerakote, an extremely durable ceramic-polymer coating (technical specifications for Cerakote). It gives the pen a really nice, matte feel. The lead advancing mechanism is very easy to replace, should it ever fail. This pencil should last a lifetime.

Eraser

Hidden under the end cap.

What’s a pencil without an eraser? Mark Three includes a small one, which is hidden underneath the end cap. It is a standard size and replacements are easy to find when it wears down.

Awesome pencil

Does everything it’s supposed to do. Love the texture of it and how you can do intricate drawings. Just wish I could have afforded the black on black pencil. The downfall of the pencil is the price.

Nearly fabulous

Love the pencil. Holds well, and writes well. One possible improvement would to add a clip or something similar to keep it from rolling off desks; it is a perfect cylinder, and it rolls way too easily. Perhaps another improvement would be to add a slight grip - which could also keep it from rolling away, depending on the design.

Nice, wish there was a repair guide

These pencils are super nice and very useful. I have two and use them frequently. That said one of mine has broken recently and I can't find instructions anywhere on how to repair it--the metal part that screws into the pen (second column, first and second piece in the Durable image) has become detached from the pen body which makes the whole back end fall out. If anyone's had a similar issue please let me know.
