    As-salāmu 'alaykum

    Gold is used to soften the metal in the nib and allows a certain writing style compared to stiffer stainless steel nibs.

    Pens are tools and aren't jewelry, but is it still considered haram for men? Smartphones, laptops, and computers also have gold in them for the electronics, but they aren't haram.

    In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

    As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

    1) If the nib is only gold plated, then it is permissible for men to use such a pen. Similarly if the nib is made from less than 50% gold, then it will be permissible to use such a pen. If it contains more than 50% gold then it would not be permissible. [Fatawa Mahmudiyyah 28/71]

    2) The same rulings would apply for the pen. It would be permissible to use if it is gold plated or contains less that 50% gold.
