M.K.D Woodcraft

I make a variety of wooden and acrylic pens custom fit to a specific pen kit. If there is a particular style of pen you'd like, with a certain kind of wood, or color/pattern of acrylic, let me know and I can make it. I can take large pieces of old and/or antique wood as well and cut it down to fit a specific pen. These make fantastic personalized gifts, where the recipient is able to hold and use something daily, that evokes a memory.

For example, my grandfather started an orchard in New Mexico which is still family operated to this day. I was given a piece of apple and cherry wood from one of the trees he planted in the 40's. It is only a pen, but it a most special possession of mine as it reminds me of my grandfather, and gives me pride that I literally use something he created.

No two pens are ever the same, but the same level of effort and attention to detail goes into every project I do. I have an incredible tolerance for errors, and will not sell something that is not perfect in my eyes.

If you ever purchase something and the pen breaks due to faulty parts (not user induced stress, or misuse), I stand by my products and will fix the piece.

Lastly, I hope you enjoy the piece. I finish my pens with multiple sanding grits, finishing with 12,000 grit on micro mesh. That is then sealed, and polished, with some wax which prevents the natural oils from your hands from breaking it down faster. Some craftsmen will finish pens in super glue, which gives it a literal plastic finish. Our pens look identical when purchased, but over time mine will age naturally. No wooden finish will last forever. I like to think of it like a leather bag that after 20 years looks weathered. Not bad, but well used. I invite you to use one and judge for yourself!
