I met David through eBay when I purchased several of his stock pens. I was looking for high quality pen sets to give as presents for my family members. I inquired if he would be interested in making some special requests pens and pencils. He readily agreed. My requirements were very specific and a departure from the pens that David makes under normal circumstances.
Specifically, I wanted a “set” in Cigar shapes of (1) a Rollerball that used a cap that could be equally screwed on the end covering the tip or the opposite end when the tip was exposed; (2) a twist opening ballpoint and (3) a twist opening mechanical pencil. The “hardware” on each set was to be gold plated. Of course, I wanted three distinct sets crafted in Amboyna, Leopardwood and Quilted Maplewood. Oh, I also wanted a wooden box to hold all 3 pens in each set.
David did a considerable amount of research in determining what was required to produce these unique sets of pens, especially the specific hardware needed to ensure the mechanical functionality I requested. The result was flawlessly designed and executed pens in the exotic woods I requested and highlighting rosewood boxes for the 3 pens of each set. The prices for the completed sets were unbelievably reasonable.
The final result yielded a remarkable value and long-lasting keepsakes. I believe the attached pictures underscore that sentiment and illustrate the design beauty and craftsmanship David used in creating these unique pens. I could not be any happier and impressed with these gifts for my family members.

Hey I just wanted to let you know I got the “Big Ben” pen I ordered from you and I love it!!! I have a window cleaning business in the North Hills of Pittsburgh & I write a lot of estimates and want to eventually move into more of the office work part of my business instead of the actual window cleaning part of the business and I’m pretty sure I’m gonna get a lot of use out of this pen. So I just wanted to say thanks for making a high quality pen and offering it at an affordable price. I got my eye on that cherry wood Big Ben pen you have on eBay now. So thanks again and have a great day!!!!

Good morning Sir David. PBI that I received the custom Brazilian rosewood pens and case on Sat. 8/18/18 unscathed from shipping and your craftmanship reflects our American world class best! The wood grain pops out at you with sophistication and the gold hardware the classy rich embellishment. The pens also fit my natural finger grip perfectly. You have the gift of the craft. I showed off the case and set to a friend and they were amazed that the case and pens were NOT MADE in China. I said, notwithstanding our national politics, we still have the best skilled craftsmen in the world and made in USA is still a cherished label. Sir David, a huge hurrrrrah and Thank You. Health & prosperity to you always, sincerely, Gregory

Best pens on the market for the price. Fast shipping and great service.
David,
Thanks for your fast reply. I tried to remove the top and was unsuccessful , the clip swivels freely but the cap doesn't want to come out. After I realized the cap is separate from the clip, I gave it a good rap on my desk with the cap down . That drove the cap in deeper which tightened the clip. I sincerely appreciate your offer to replace the pen, that shows you are a quality businessman ! :-) Even if I was unable to tighten the clip, I would NOT have accepted your offer, after all, it's been a year since my purchase and because it's so good looking, I use it often.
David I just want to thank you for all of the wonderful cigar custom pens you have made for my husband. He gets so many compliments on them and always responds with the same answer, "Some guy in Upstate PA that my wife deals with made it". So happy to have found your company. You truly have a skill.
Received the pens today. That’s was really fast. The pens are great. My wife and I usually go to festivals around central part of Texas, but with the corona virus there isn’t much going on. So I looked on the internet and found your site. Thank you for the pens and your wonderful craftmanship.
Mr. P - I hope all is well. I just received my order from you and I cannot be more delighted. I ordered 3 of your Big Ben Cigar Pens and wow! I expected great pens, and my expectations were far exceeded. Thank you. The bonus pen was a nice touch. Many people claim the title, but you sir are a true craftsman - true to your word. I look forward to providing an excellent review.
