Dunhill Carbon Fibre pens..

Anyone know who makes these Carbon Fibre pens for Dunhill? Are they Swiss, German, French or God forbid Chinese made?

I think all the writing bits are made by Namiki, which is an old alliance, since there were Dunhill Namikis on sale in Japan in the 1930s, and highly regarded pens too.

At some time in the 70s Dunhill owned Montblanc and MB made some of Dunhill's pens. Now both belongs to Richemont and it's possible that MB still makes Dunhill's pens, but I'm not 100% certain.

Well it does say Swiss Made on the pen discretely on the clip. So at least I know it's not China!!

My ball point says "Swiss Made" under the clip as well.

Best pen in the world, btw.

HAL sure sounds full of hostility towards the Chinese.
