A long overdue five star review! Excellent looking pens that are just as good quality so you can have confidence that you are not giving your friends rubbish that will only break in the future. The service is everything you would expect with items arriving promptly. I've even had conversations on the telephone with Beaufort no issues and they have also phoned me back when I've left a message which not every company does. Some companies are not even contactable via telephone. 10 out of 10 for me!

For number of year's I have used Beaufort Ink for the
vast majority of my pen turning materials. The service
and quality of the products have always been top class. I cannot recommend highly enough. Due to health issues I haven't been able to do any turning for the last two years. But on the mend now, and will soon be placing an order for more goodies

I’ve bought from Beaufort Ink on a number of occasions and always been pleased with the service. Their Scirocco pen kit is one of my favourites. Feels lovely in your hand and very reliable - I’ve been using mine for about 5 years.

Unfortunately I was sent parts that didn’t fit, however when I informed Beaufort ink they were extremely apologetic and couldn’t have done more to resolve the issue to my satisfaction.

I came across Beaufort Ink many years ago when I was wanting to source a high quality pen kit. I found not one, nor two but several kits of stunning quality and design - the Mistral series. Their click pens - Tempest is my preference - are quality and just work! For the new pen turner that is an invaluable asset.
My own journey has taken me into nibs and kitless pens, and here too Phil is a mine of information, of which he gives freely.
Their range of blanks are wide and extensive - from the exotic Feather prepared banks for the Mistral to Ebonite blanks for that unusual pen. One of their gems has to be the Simplicita range of solid colour blanks.
There is a lot more that I could include in this review - such as their range of Nibs, Kitless mandrels, CA glues et al.
Suffice to say that Phil and Ria Dart, together with the whole of their team at Beaufort Ink give exemplary service of a very high standard, and come highly recommended.

I have had the pleasure of working with Phil since Beaufort was based in Spean Bridge. As always, positive experience is based on both the quality of the product, and the level of support when needed. Happy to confirm that both are top level. As they say, the devil is always in the detail, the fittings are beautiful to work with, and the bushings are to size. Phil is very happy to help you experiment with special orders such as engraving.

Having used kits and pen blanks from Beaufort Ink for the last three years, I have always been pleased with the high quality of the materials. Everything fits perfectly, spares are available and arrive promptly. I have had faultless service from Beaufort and look forward to buying from them in the future.

Having made dozens of orders from Beaufort Ink for kits, blanks, drill bit, finishes and pen cases, I have always appreciated the impeccable customer service, excellent prices for quality items and a huge range on sale. Postage is fast and well packed, notifications are clear and the quality is second to none.

I enjoy making pens as a hobby and as a business. I regularly purchase pen kits & pen blanks from Beaufort Ink as the quality is superb and they are also local for me in Devon. Goods are always posted promptly, often being received the next day. Great service from a reliable company.

Beaufort ink, for me, are the best, dedicated suppliers of pen making accessories, their customer service is incredible. When I discovered them and began using their services, the quality of their pen components was on another level, way beyond anything I’d experienced up until then. First class customer service, advice and sometimes even a shoulder to cry on. I would highly recommend them to anyone thinking of taking up this brilliant, addictive hobby. Phil Darts help has been invaluable for me. If I could give them ten stars I would.
Steve Gunby, pens to treasure.

Experience with Beaufort Inks Pen Kits
With two decades of experience as a Pen Turner, I have worked with a wide variety of their pen kits and refills since the inception of Beaufort Inks. Throughout this time, I have used all of their pen kits and refills extensively. While I occasionally use products from other suppliers, I consistently find that Beaufort's kits stand out for their exceptional design, quality, and durability.
Customer Support and Assistance
Whenever I have uncertainties or questions, the team at Beaufort Inks has always gone above and beyond to provide helpful and accommodating support. Their commitment to customer satisfaction is evident in every interaction.

I have not turned a pen for a while but when I do Beaufort Ink is always my go-too for their kits, they have such a wide choice and their website is so easy to negotiate.
