The ATELEIA brass pen and leather journal set was designed to be a functional head-turner. The pen features a minimalist design, that is both slim and weighty in the hand. Although originally designed to house the Pilot Hi-Tec-C cartridges, several other popular refill cartridges fit the housing with the aid of springs and/or spacers. For the journal, slip pockets on the front and rear cover hold two pens securely, while the brass hardware and vegetable tanned leather take on patina and the signs of use as they age. The main body is constructed of one single piece of hide, and held together by brass rivets. The loop closure system prevents the journal from popping open when you don’t want it to do so.

message to break down some different options in more detail, but there are a couple ways to claim both the journal and the pen with both inserts.

This looks like a Beautiful minimalist design pen in brass with a great sleeve which is understated but matches the pen perfectly & I can't wait to get my hands on them.
Thank you for the suggestion. I am definitely open to adding more sizes in the future.
You have raised some worthy concerns about how the pen functions. I'll do my best to address a few points, but, ultimately, it's your decision to decide what type of pen fits your needs best when using the journal. When designing a pen for the journal, I wanted one with a cap - and a cap that wouldn't just fall off incidentally. The threads help keep the cap on the pen securely, but, as a consequence, it takes a second or two to remove the cap. I also acknowledge, in certain situations, there isn't a desk or flat surface available to set the cap on. If using the journal, though, the cap fits perfectly in the slip pocket that the pen is usually stowed in - if I'm out and about, I most often put the cap there while writing. While designing, there were certain sacrifices in ultimate utility made in order to create a clean aesthetic. But I do stand by the design and feel confident saying that is highly functional. Those who have bought or reviewed the prototypes also concur that is a functional design. But again, ultimately it is your decision what type of pen best meets your needs. It sounds like a clicky pen might be more along the lines of what you are looking for. There are several excellent clicky pens being produced by small shops and big corporations alike. Karas Kustoms and Tactile Turn have both sold really cool brass pens here on Kickstarter - they would fit in the journal and I won't have any hard feelings if you decide to buy from them. I think they make quality products, just as I believe the ATELEIA pen is a quality, functional, and beautiful product. Hope this helps.
