Twist it and it writes. Twist it back and it goes in a jacket with no cap to mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is Pelikan's high-grade resin, diamond-cut and self-polishing, so a pen that lives in a pocket keeps its finish. The trim is the same 24-karat gold plating as the fountain pen's, which is why the two read as a set on a desk rather than as a pen and its accessory. It arrives fitted with Pelikan's high-capacity refill in Medium, black.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pelikan, Hannover, Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Souverän K800 ballpoint, \"L\" size (the M800's barrel family)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMechanism:\u003c\/strong\u003e Twist-action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRefill:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pelikan high-capacity ballpoint refill; one fitted on arrival (Medium, black)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-grade resin, diamond-cut, self-polishing — Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrim:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24K gold-plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Three years from Pelikan, plus our Thirty-Day Assurance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe stock the K800 in Black alone, to sit beside the M800 in Black.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions we are asked\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it match the M800?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
