Dragon Ballpoint Pen Kits

Turn a pen that commands attention with the Dragon Ballpoint Pen Kit by Penn State Industries. Every component tells the dragon story — a sculpted crouching dragon clip, a dragon claw center band, and a tip and end cap covered in intricate dragon scales. A Tigers Eye crystal is embedded in the design, a stone long associated with courage, strength of will, and self-confidence. Available in Antique Brass, Antique Copper, and Antique Pewter.

What truly sets the Dragon Ballpoint apart is the depth of its sculpted metalwork — this is one of the most detailed figural pen kits available at any price point. The pen operates with a smooth twist mechanism: rotate the upper cap to advance or retract the refill with satisfying precision. Straight tubes keep the turning process approachable for builders at any skill level, and the two-tube design gives you two full canvases to showcase your blank.
