"Dare to hold a Cobra"
Product Description
Cobra Snakeskin CEO Series - Medium
This CEO Style pen features brown spitting cobra. Naja ashei is the world's largest species of spitting cobra and one of the most venomous snakes known. In addition to the dry lowlands of northern and eastern Kenya, it is found in similar habitats in northeastern Uganda, southern Ethiopia and southern Somalia. cobras that have the ability to spit or eject venom from their mouth when defending themselves against predators. The spit can cause permanent blindness if introduced to the eye and left untreated. Despite their name, these snakes do not actually spit their venom. They spray the venom, using muscular contractions upon the venom glands. These muscles squeeze the glands and force the venom out through forward facing holes at the tips of the fangs. As the venom leaves the fang tip, a large gust of air is expelled from the lung which aerosolizes the venom and propels it forward. When cornered, some species can "spit" their venom a distance as great as two meters. While spitting is typically their primary form of defense, all spitting cobras are capable of delivering venom through a bite as well.
All exposed accent rings, bands and caps include elegant black titanium custom hand-cast 3 dimensional designs surrounded by a sea of brilliant Rhodium. This pen is available as a smooth flowing German made Schmidt® rollerball, Iridium tipped medium fountain or both/dual. An upgraded fountain nib in 18kt gold is also available. This one of a kind pen was handcrafted from a block of acrylic using a proprietary 64 step process by Frederick fine handcrafted writing instruments a.k.a. frederickpens.com.
