Custom pen makers are pen turners who fabricate pens from raw materials and, in many cases, a certain portion of off-the-shelf parts. Pens made can include fountain pens, refill-based pens (rollerballs/ballpoints/gel-ink) and dip pens.

Custom Pen Makers[edit]

The makers in this list focus on traditional custom pens, including fountain pens and refill-based pens. These makers generally do not use "kit pen" components, but most use off-the-shelf nib units.

Unusual Pen Makers[edit]

The makers listed here create less-traditional, unique or unusual pens. These can be differentiated by their means of fabrication, filling system (or lack thereof), etc.
