Kitless pen thread taps for Bock nibs, for custom pen makers

« Blog Menu | 11 May 2015 10:00:00 Phil

Taps to suit Bock nib housings in both size 5 and 6 are on the way, and available to pre-order right now on the website.

Any tap (or taps) will get a pre-prder 10% discount, and if you buy a complete set of three in either size, you’ll get a pre-order discount of over 17.5%

No voucher codes required – just a special pre-order deal which will run for the early birds until they arrive here, which will be soon we hope.
