Product Description
Named for the Greek goddess of wisdom, good counsel, and artistic endeavors, the Grifos Athene ballpoint pen is designed to inspire all three. It’s handcrafted in Italy’s Aosta Valley from solid sterling silver, and engraved with a variety of guilloche patterns—one of which is meant to resemble grains of barley, a traditional offering to the gods in Ancient Greece Read More

I've had this pen since the last drop. Absolutely perfect. So much so, in fact, one of my co-workers didn't want to wait for it to drop again and ordered one for himself from Italy after test driving mine.
This pen will take the standard Parker ballpoint/gel refill--my favorite.
Pen itself is exceptionally well made and looks exactly like the massdrop photos. Weight and balance are perfect. Twist action works with a subtle, but satisfying click. The pattern on the barrel adds grip where other sterling pens would be lacking. The size of the pen/width of the barrel are perfect for long and short writing sessions alike--very comfortable. My only gripe, if you could call it a gripe, is that I would prefer a clip that was solid, but the clip on the pen works and looks fine--it's really a personal taste thing for me.
Bottom Line: For less than $100 you will not find a better ballpoint made with such materials and craftsmanship--buy one.

Thw1990So if it takes Parker refills, that means it will also take Space Pen refills with the Parker adapter?

Is it possible to see Pattern 10 on the pen completely (full-scale photo)?
VisigothHello, I attach some pics here. They show a very similar ball pen, same size and almost same shape only different details (black ones). It have the pattern 10. I think this could help. Always at your disposal! Maurizio from Italy

Definitely joined this one. Pattern five reminds me of the Parker ciesle pattern on my favorite ballpoints, but not too similar, so I picked that one. Very stoked for it to arrive!
On another note, it's clear Maurizio takes great pride in the craftsmanship of his pens, which just adds to the whole thing.
Hoping the bog wood one drops again soon (hopefully with a gold nib option) so I can snag that one, too!

Such a beautiful pen. Having a hard time deciding which pattern to pick. Can you offer any additional information to help with my decision, such as which pattern is least likely to show scratches or which is the most popular one for your company?
TMagnoHello, hard question your one, two reasons first because is like to suggest a taste of ice cream ... Every one have its own preferred and even if I suggest one is difficult it could meet 100% people taste. Second reason, we have made them all, they are our "sons" are you able say which your sons is the preferred one? Obviously this last is a joke but could work to give you an idea of what I mean. Said so I could say the best seller are the numbers 1, 5, 10. Always at your disposal! Best regards from Italy. Maurizio

I have been hanging out for a Grifos massdrop for a while. Saw the word "Grifos" on massdrop and I got very excited and then very sad once I realised it was a ballpoint. I will have to wait for the next fountain pen one! Or maybe just order directly...

I was looking at the different patterns, and it looks like Patterns 10 and 11 have more of a texture to them for a better grip than Patterns 1 to 5, which all appear to be smooth?
KartosisHello, the pattern 10 have more grip then any other while the other are more or less the same. This do not mean that the others slip in hands. on contrary all them have more then enough grip but if you are searching for the more well the 10 is the right one. Best regards from italy! Maurizio

This is beautiful! It dropped at the worst time... so I hope that this one is successful so they'll drop it again!
ChuckDeeHello, thank you for your nice words on our handmade pen. I agree with you that summer time isn't the best for pen purchasing but we and Massdrop staff think that worth the pain do a try and offer quality even when the most part of people are away. Is a way to enrich of content, then if too many will miss the occasion we will check if there will be time for a second drop. Best regards from Italy Maurizio
