Artisanal Expansions from Hardy Penwrights and Kanilea Pen Co.

Brands large and small such as Franklin-Christoph, Esterbrook, Edison Pen Co., and more utilize DiamondCast resins on a regular basis.

One artisan brand in partnership with McKenzie Penworks is Hardy Penwrights. The October "now" section premiered the first partnership between these two companies, combining Greg Hardy's Companion model fountain pen with Liquid Smoke DiamondCast resin.
