The fog still hasn't lifted entirely today and was pretty yucky outside which gave me an excuse to goof off.

Kirinite 'Oyster' blank(s), fiber tipped which uses fountain pen cartridges or converter. Taper fit cap is also postable if desired by the user.
Cigar pen clip embedded into the cap.

Overall length is 5-3/8"
Body Diameter approx 0.470
Cap Diameter approx 0.550"

Comments, suggestions, critique always appreciated.

That's really nice! It's great to see a different type of kitless pen. Did you purchase the fiber tip "nib" separately somewhere? I made one of the PSI fiber tip kits just to try out the pen, not so much the kit. The assembly looks like the same one, but I know the actual replacement tips are not proprietary to PSI.
 
Todd, it is the PSI tip. I have yet to find the tip (or variant) elsewhere. It has the same thread as the SKM88 clicker (m7x0.75)

Aha, I see now. I thought the black part was 2 pieces, one being the tip and the other a "nib/section" type part. I looked at the one I have and can see it now. Good to know about the threading size. You will see that someone asked if the tip was proprietary in the Q&A on the PSI starter kit page - that was me. I did find a nice selection of replacement tips here at JetPens. That should give you plenty of other options, though I don't know if the threading is standard on them all.
