About this Product
Introducing The Command Post 5000— because every great leader knows you can’t command respect with just a memo... you need a gold-trimmed memo. Engineered for high-level "strategic initiatives" like approving catered lunches and nodding thoughtfully during budget meetings, this pen screams, “I’m not just on the force — I’m on the golf course by 2 PM.”
Crafted with sleek black precision and gold highlights shinier than a freshly polished badge, this executive pen is perfect for signing off on promotions, disciplinary reviews, or that annual "important community outreach photo-op." Warning: prolonged use of this pen may result in sudden urges to create a five-year plan, give rousing speeches about “accountability,” and refer to everything as a "multi-pronged approach." The Command Post 5000 — because leadership isn’t about doing paperwork... it’s about looking extremely good while someone else does it.
But wait — there's more! The Command Post 5000 doesn’t just look important... it clicks important too. Featuring an all-metal Schmidt SKM-88 click mechanism, precision-engineered in Germany by people who take clicking very, very seriously, this pen ensures every click carries the weight of unquestionable authority. Each press feels like you're launching a tactical operation — or at least finalizing a strongly worded email.
Forget flimsy plastic clicks like the rookies use — this is the executive-grade click. So when you make a decision (or dramatically refuse to make one), you can do it with a metallic KA-CHUNK that echoes through the office like the final gavel at a budget meeting. The Schmidt SKM-88: because promotions aren’t handed out... they’re clicked into existence.
Each pen comes in a small pen box and the standard ink is black. Refill is a Parker Pen refill...found at most stores in the office supply section.

How it’s Made
Pen turning is the art of taking raw materials like wood, resin, or acrylic and crafting them into a beautiful, one-of-a-kind pen. The process starts by choosing a pen kit and a blank. The blank is then cut to size and drilled down the middle to fit a brass tube, which gets glued inside to give the pen its strength. Once the glue is set, the ends are trimmed perfectly flush so everything will fit together nicely later. The blank is mounted onto a lathe, where it’s carefully shaped using special turning tools until it matches the design and size needed. After shaping, the pen is sanded smooth, working through finer and finer grits, and then finished — either polished to a high shine or coated with a protective finish like CA glue. Once everything looks just right, the final step is assembling all the parts with a pen press, locking everything into place. What starts as a simple block of material is transformed into a functional piece of art — something you can hold, write with, and enjoy every day.
