"The Fixer" Novelty Ballpoint Pen – Hammer Head Edition
Built for the maker, the tinkerer, the fixer-of-everything, "The Fixer" is no ordinary pen. Featuring a gleaming chrome-plated hammer head clip and a barrel crafted from genuine African Blackwood, this novelty ballpoint is half tool, half conversation piece—and fully functional.
The story behind the pen:
This pen came to life after a good-natured moan from a mate who always ends up fixing everyone’s DIY disasters. "What I need," he said, "is a pen that looks like I get stuff done." Challenge accepted.
I sourced the hammerhead clip and paired it with a rich piece of African Blackwood—dense, dark, and full of character. To complete the effect, I carefully added a series of authentic dents and tool marks into the wood by hand, echoing the knocks and scrapes of a well-used workbench. The result is a pen that looks like it’s lived through a few projects of its own—and still writes like a dream.
Twist to write, lift to admire, and smile every time it hits the desk.
