It’s a thing of beauty to my eyes, but I’m really not into “deliberately scarce” as a marketing ploy (see also “limited edition” sneakers which my son obsesses over). Mass-produce them for a reasonable price and it would still be the same object (and just as desirable) to me.

When I was a boy I devised complex and beautiful ciphers, completely secure against the attacks of other boys, who never actually attacked. I was a teen when I realized I had no secrets. There was nothing for my codes to protect.
I also wouldn’t have anything very good to write with this pen.
