Baron Fig Squire Charcoal

The Squire is the first pen offering from Baron Fig. The Squire was originally produced as part of a Kickstarter campaign that launched on November 10th 2015 CE. The project successfully funded on December 10th 2015 CE and Baron Fig announced that the shipping was complete as of April 18th, 2016 CE. The Squire was initially announced to the public on May 17, 2016 CE. It is a rollerball pen with a minimal profile, which was compared to the Ajoto, an early Kickstarter-financed machined pen. It ships with a Baron Fig branded version of a Parker-style or G2 ceramic liquid ink rollerball in a .6mm size, initially only in black ink, but a blue option would be added to standard edition pens at a later date. The refill is extended by a twist mechanism at the finial end of the pen.

Subscription Editions

Alphabet

The Alphabet edition was the first of the planned quarterly subscription editions of the Squire pen. It featured a matte black finish with each letter of the English alphabet in capital letters descending in order from A to Z starting near the finial and continuing to the point. The letters were printed in white. The Alphabet edition Squire omitted the sword logo from the standard editions but includes the words "Baron Fig" on the opposite side from the alphabet text. The Alphabet edition Squire sold for $60US with a black ink refill and shipped in a black cardboard tube with an outline of the pen on one side.
