This is a Triton ballpoint, in satin chrome with chrome accents. I really like the finish of this kit. The blank is a Rhino, called Sparkle Blue Powder. While the blank is really nice, I'm a little disappointed in it. I was expecting it to "pop". Still, I'm not unhappy with the pen.

I must have trimmed the lower body a bit too much, the refill tip sticks out quite a ways. Thankfully, it does retract completely. Since it's for me, I might trim the end of the refill a little.

Really liking the blank Jim, might just fit the ticket for a couple of future projects. I've never been sold on satin metal finishes by look although they feel nice.
