Deer Antler Pens For Sale

Welcome pen lovers and collectors! Here you’ll find we offer a range of high-quality, hand-crafted, deer antler pens for sale, most of which use finely carved antlers of mule or whitetail deer in their construction. If you’re bored writing with the same old ballpoint pen day after day, something as uniquely stunning and attractive as a deer antler pen might be just what you need. Not only are they ergonomically comfortable writing utensils, but they are also wonderful collectibles and gifts for the hunter or outdoor enthusiast.

At first glance it might seem like pens are one of the easier items to make with antlers, but crafting them is a challenge unless you have the proper tools and experience to do so. One of the biggest problems beginners seem to face when crafting an antler pen is drilling out the pen shaft to the right size. It’s easy to drill a hole too large (especially if the antler has any curvature to it) and by doing so, you’ll have to essentially start over with a new piece of antler.

What To Look For in an Antler Pen

Antler Pen

Deer antler pens come in countless different styles, shapes and designs. As a result, many people find it difficult to narrow their selection down to a single one. Before purchasing the first antler pen you come across, you should take the time to browse through all of the available selections to ensure you choose the one that’s right for you.

Here’s a list of some of the most important considerations you should make when purchasing a deer antler pen:

  • Authentic or faux deer antlers?
  • Does it feature a clasp for attaching to a shirt or pants pocket?
  • Is the antler pen easily refillable with traditional ink cartridges?
  • Does it feature a retractable bolt action mechanism for ink preservation?
  • Is the antler material coated with a protective finish to prevent warping or damage?
  • How much does it cost? After shopping around for antler pends, you’ll probably notice how much their prices can differ.
  • Style, color and design. Because they’re handcrafted by people like you and me, deer antler pens come in countless different styles. Some of them are black, while others are white and chrome.

Quality is something you should never try to cut corners on with deer antler pens. If you plan on using it to write with (which most people do), you’ll need a pen that’s capable of producing clean strokes of ink; otherwise, it’s going to be more of a decorative novelty than an actual pen. So, how do you know if it’s a quality pen without buying it first? If you’re shopping for a pen in a store, you can ask one of the employees to let you test it out. Depending on where you are, most places will be more than happy to let you try out their antler pens for sale before buying them. On the other hand, if you’re shopping for a pen on our site, the best way to gauge the quality is to read feedback from past customers. Those who are happy with their purchase will leave positive comments regarding their newly purchased pen.
