[Pen/Pencil Review] Pilot Birdy Switch Pen/Pencil Combo
Today’s blog is a new thing for me. The phrase, “Good things come in small packages” definitely applies to this mini pen and pencil combo from Pilot. This is the Pilot Birdy Switch Pen and Pencil combo. This is a super thin, mini that you almost need to see to believe. This combo pen is […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Zebra Surari Emulsion Ink Retractable Pen
So I have several brands of pens that I like – it’s no secret. I tend toward the “Two Ps” from Japan, Pentel and Pilot. But lately, Zebra has been rising on my list. They used to be a lower end pen (like Huyndai and Kai to Honda and Toyota) but have been getting better […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] The Lamy Tip Rollerball Medium Point
This week’s pen review is a “nicer” rollerball (but fun) pen from Lamy. I picked up the Lamy Tipo Rollerball from JetPens in December. It’s referred to as a “medium” point, which I think is a 0.7mm. Part of what makes it “fun” is, in fact, the box the pen comes in. The Lamy Tipo […]
[Pen/Pencil Review Post] Zebra Sarasa Study Retractable Pen
This week’s pen review is a basic, workhorse type pen with some fun little details. It’s the Zebra Sarasa Study – in a 0.5mm point and black gel ink – because they’re good like that. I picked this one up on a JetPens after Christmas shopping order. The Sarasa Study has a nice, dark black […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Blue Journal Pen – 1.0mm Ballpoint
I really need to learn to do these the night before. Monday’s are getting away from me. This is a pen I picked up on my last binge at Office Depot. I kinda forgot about it – until today when I was about to put it away, when I remembered… hey, Monday. This is simply […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] UZI Tactical Glassbreaker Pen #7 – Gun Metal
I have some of the best people in my life… I really do. I couldn’t do most of what I do without their encouragement, support (and occasional enabling). This is one of those times. My Most Awesome Friends, John and Susan Husisian are just the best. At Fencon, they gave me this week’s pen (sorry […]
[Pen/PencilReview] Zebra 301A Metal Barrel Fine Point Ballpoint Pen
I’ll start working on the Dallas Pen Show acquisitions soon. This one’s been hanging out in the bag for a while, so I thought I’d get it taken care of. This is the Zebra 301-A Ball Point pen in a red metal barrel with a 0.7mm fine point in black ink. I don’t remember where […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Monteverde Telescopic Ballpoint Pen With Stylus
Jimmy and I were taking advantage of a sale at Fry’s Electronics last week when we saw this week’s pen (in a two-pack) in their Office Supply Section. This week’s pen is part of Monteverde 365 Everyday Collection. It’s the S-102 Telescopic Ballpoint pen with stylus – also part of the One Touch Stylus line. […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Zebra Spiral Ball Point 0.7mm
This is another pen from my last Office Depot spree, and I found this in the Clearance section – so I hope they’re not discontinuing them completely, just changing packaging or will be available in other retailers. This is the Zebra Spiral Ball Point pen in a Fine point 0.7mm black ink. This is an […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] The Pilot Dr. Grip Full Black 1.0mm
So, thanks to the amazing way Office Depot took care of me during the print job fiasco, I ended up being able to go on a pen buying mini-spree last week before heading out of town (there was also a coupon about to expire). This is but one of them, the Pilot Dr. Grip Full […]
