The first unique feature that sets Epika apart from the competition is our proprietary locking system, the HCRLS – Herman Ceramic Rotary Locking System
The system consists of three 2.5 mm ceramic balls used for locking, five 1 mm balls that act as bearings for the rotational movement of the clip, and one 2 mm ball that limits the range of rotational movement. The frame of the system is made from phosphor bronze, a material that is extremely durable while also offering self-lubricating properties

Another unique feature that sets our Epika apart from other pens on the market is the creation of a single, contoured body, made from Grade 5 titanium. It has no joints and is very ergonomic
To achieve this effect, we decided to purchase a Swiss-type lathe, and it turned out that despite such an advanced machine, making such a long, solid titanium body was another significant obstacle, which we fortunately managed to overcome

The clip – simple, right? We thought so too. Ergonomic, of course, and meeting our aesthetic criteria. The challenges began when we got the idea to combine this ergonomics and aesthetics with the function of the HCRLS - Herman Ceramic Rotary Locking System
Following the principle that what is difficult we do immediately, and what is impossible takes us three days, we added the concept that the clip, along with the body of the Herman Ceramic Rotary Locking System, should be made from a single solid piece of titanium, without any joints, screws, pins, etc. Don't even ask… it may have taken us a bit more than three days, but we did it!
