We are in a unique time in our history where both the old ways and the new ways are having to integrate for out-of-the-box thinking. That’s exactly the type of thinking that Krudo used to design KOMPENSATOR. The back end of the pen is fashioned after the look of the compensator you might see on a firearm. It is complete with 2 pen tips giving you the ability to sign off with flare. We also just like the idea that the word “pen” is in the KOMPENSATOR name. Made from 6061-T6 Aluminum, with a Titanium clip, KOMPENSATOR is the elegant solution to your EDC needs. Interchangeable fine tips for the roller point and for the ink nib provide both a no-nonsense tool and creative script options. Take this tool with you to the board meeting for notes, the grocery store for marking off your list, keep it within reach at your desk or in your pocket protector. With a slightly over ½” diameter, black, anodized body, KOMPENSATOR will complement your EDC collection and keep you at the ready. It’s even ideal as a gift! -
Krudo’s father is the inspiration for this design as well as the name of MANIKOMIO. His father, Salvadore, Sal for short, had an endearing nickname that only his closest friends were allowed to call him; “Manikomio”. Sal had a great sense of humor, was highly energetic, willing to take on a friendly dare, was extremely brave and respected in his circles. Krudo’s father still influences his work and his lifeFACTORY 2ND’S are now available! While supplies last.
