[Pen/Pencil Review] Sharks are Still Cool When They’re Pens
I’m doing a rerun this week because 1) I’m looking at another color version of this pen; 2) I kinda forgot yesterday was Tuesday. Why did I forget that? Because I’m in the middle of teaching a 3-day – with some help – class for work. It’s been a huge undertaking for many reasons. It […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Pilot Precise V5 RT Lime Green
I know, I know… I just did a Pilot Precise V5 RT. This is another Pilot Precise V5 RT (retractable) in a lovely lime green that I picked up during the last Kinokuniya trip. The things about lime green pens is the tinting of the colors. At first I thought it was a different type […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Pentel EnerGel RTX 0.3mm
This week’s pen review goes back to Pentel and another version of the Ener-Gel. This one is a 0.3mm retractable EnerGel. It was on “Back to School” special, and I’m a sucker for super fine points and sales. I’ve been pleasantly surprised by this pen, I’ve mentioned my tendency for retractables on the work desk. […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Hauser 10-Piece Ballpoint Pen Set – 0.7mm
I love hitting places like Daiso for so much random things at ridiculously low prices. This set of pens was one of those lovely finds. This is the Hauser 10-piece ballpoint pens with 0.7mm points. The Hauser pens are classic stick ball point pens in a rainbow of colors. These pens are 5.5″ long capped […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] The LEGO(tm) Pen – 3-Pack
It’s time to get back on track. I was off kilter last week, muddled through and now I’m back – or at least back-ish. Trying to get everything back to kilter (whatever kilter actually is). So, pens! Let’s talk about pens. This week, we’re taking a look at LEGO™ pens I picked up at Half-Price […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Zebra bLen 0.5mm Blue Ink
This week’s pen is a new design from Zebra. I picked this up at Kinokuniya on the way back from my Favorite Ex-CoWorker’s wedding. If we’d thought it through, we’d’ve left for the wedding earlier and stopped on the way UP. But this one is something interesting…and I’m looking forward to working with it more […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Spoke Pen in Green with Black Ink
This week’s pen was an unexpected gift from Jimmy. He got it from the good people at Spoke Pencils and (now) pens. I think it was finally a replacement for the pencil he gave me a while back that I gave back to him because it works with his Pentel P-205 collection. This pen was […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Pilot Precise V5 RT – Classic Colors
I often do revisits of pens or different versions. This is another Pilot Precise V5 RT (retractable) in a classic color 3-pack – red, blue, black. That I picked up on a clearance table at Staples when I “needed” to get a narrow-ruled legal pad for a job thing – because I have preferences about […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] Fisher Space Pen Space Shuttle Edition
Today’s pen is the is another Fisher Space Pen – this one I bought when we went to Houston and visited the Johnson Space Center (Yay! NASA!). It is chrome over brass with a gold space shuttle on it. Which made it a must have. This pen came with a PR4 Medium Point Black pressurized […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] The Houston Adventure
This won’t be a “for real” review – mostly because we’ve been traveling since Thursday. Houston was awesome. If I met you at Comicpalooza – thanks you for coming by the table or the panel! I appreciate the opportunity to meet so many people there, and to run into some familiar faces. Because we had […]
