This is not what you think.
Wood was a little beat up and one vertical crack, but maybe serviceable. My big issue was that aside from the wood, all the rest was plastic. Why spend all the time milling the wood, if you're just going to finish it with plastic pieces? Additionally, 1) the "24k Gold Plating" is simply gold colored paint on the plastic and 2). the cap doesn't screw on the back when it is opened so it gets loose when you are writing. Pretty disappointed in the product.<br /><br />Also, I received a "Certificate of Authenticity". WTF, for an overpriced plastic pen?<br /><br />With shipping, over $150 for this pen, I should have spent $5 at OfficeMax. Going to try and return it.<br /><br />Update 4/3:  I was approved to return it. I shipped it the same day (3/19). It is 15 days later and I've been ghosted. Stay away from this seller!
