{"product_id":"b36-diamondcast-evancio-heimdhall-1","title":"B36 - (Diamondcast) - Evancio - Heimdhall","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen we created the Bifrost, we wanted a pen to pair with it. Running on the norse theme (mythology being a hobby of mine), I set out in collaboration with our friends at Diamondcast to create a pen big enough and bold enough to pair with our \"rainbow bridge\" pen. Taking hints from mythology and current popular culture, we created this silver, bronze, and black beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a rather large pen. The cap is approximately 18mm in diameter, the body 16mm at its widest point, and the section about 15mm at its widest. This pen works very well with a bock #8 titanium nib, but can also be paired with a standard steel #6.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrom the Encyclopedia Britannica:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeimdall\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, Old Norse \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeimdallr\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, in \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/topic\/Germanic-religion-and-mythology\" class=\"md-crosslink autoxref\"\u003eNorse mythology\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, the watchman of the gods.
