Make literature not war. Working together with Liberty United, Cross are manufacturing these unique writing instruments to help protect at risk American children from gun violence. This collector’s edition Calais ballpoint pen has been created as a striking reminder of the illegal gun removed from circulation to make it. Finished in sleek matte black lacquer with polished black PVD trim and marked with the serial number of the gun that was dismantled to produce it, the Calais is like a phoenix rising from the ashes; something truly beautiful created from destruction. Completed with splashes of safety orange and a blackened disk of steel featuring Liberty United’s logo, made from the very same gun and embedded into the end cap. The sale of every Cross Calais Liberty United Collector’s Edition Ballpoint Pen helps charities supporting American children affected by gun crime and takes another illegal gun off the streets.

Cross Pens are regarded as America’s oldest manufacturer of writing instruments (since 1846) and the pioneer of the mechanical pencil. They are coveted for their aerodynamic lines and signature gleaming chrome finish, inspired by Art Deco and Manhattan architecture. Their medalist finish combines chrome with gold accents, typifying their sharp, business-like feel. Many of the Cross designs have remained unchanged for decades, such as the Classic Century and Townsend (the pen of US presidents).

This is why people love it
Loads of good customer reviews submitted through feefo
- Written on 06-Jun-2021I've found recently that certain pens have been difficult to find, but not here.
- Written on 06-Apr-2021The shape of this pen is great and I like the fact that it is made from decommissioned guns or ammo.
- Written on 29-Mar-2021Love the idea the pen is a recycled illegal firearm but quite expensive
- Written on 11-Mar-2021Nice present and nice engravement.
- Written on 14-Jun-2020I've used Cross pens all my life, I like them and always have. When my wife, who is currently ill, saw this one she loved the idea of 'the pen being mightier than the sword' and as she does crosswords during her treatment it seemed an appropriate gift.
- Written on 27-May-2020Very good quality product, very modern looking and for a good cause.
