Stick around til the end for two bonus pencil picks!
The Lamy 2000 has a timeless design that’s great for work environments.
It’s full of thoughtful details like a spring-loaded pocket clip
and a piston filling system that holds plenty of ink.
Its comfortably balanced body and gold nib make it a pleasure to use.
The Lamy 2000 comes in durable and lightweight Makrolon, as well as heavier stainless steel.
Machined out of a resilient aluminum alloy, the Karas Kustoms Fountain K can withstand
the hardest knocks of everyday life.
Even if you drop it tip down, you can just replace the nib.
As a bonus, the Fountain K has a modular design that lets you convert it to a gel or ballpoint pen.
Designed to literally work in space, the Fisher Space Pen will write in just about every circumstance
- including upside down, in the hottest or coldest weather, and on wet or greasy paper.
This pocket-sized pen is made of solid brass and has a stylishly sleek profile.
Pair it with a coordinating clip to keep it secure in your pocket.
The Colte Brass ballpoint pen also features a sturdy brass build to stand up to heavy use.
Its raw finish will develop a patina, which gives the pen extra charm.
The Colte Brass even comes with all the parts needed to convert the pen to a mechanical pencil
if you decide you need a change.
The BIGiDESIGN Ti Arto is the ultimate pen.
Machined out of super-strong titanium, its durability is simply not a concern.
The Ti Arto’s innovative clutch design allows it to use almost any refill.
You can choose from over 750, so even if you discover a new favorite ink refill
you can keep the same pen for your entire life.
The Tactile Turn Glider’s retraction mechanism is easy to use one-handed.
The bolt moves fluidly through a crescent-shaped groove to extend the tip, and retracts with
a satisfying “snap.”
Shallow grooves around the entire pen body give it a pleasant texture and make it easier
to hold.
The Tactile Turn Glider comes in several durable metals, including stunning Damascus steel.
If you prefer graphite to ink, you can’t go wrong with the TWSBI Precision.
Its all-metal construction inside and out helps it stand up to hard use, and its clutch
can be opened up to clear any pesky lead jams.
The Precision is also available with a retractable lead sleeve, which protects it from being damaged.
When it comes to style, the Pentel Sharp Kerry doesn’t disappoint.
Its distinctive capped design protects its tip from being bent and gives it undeniable
panache.
Although the Pentel Sharp Kerry’s plastic body isn’t quite as sturdy as the TWSBI
Precision, its internal mechanism is all metal to withstand the stress of frequent clicking.
Its clutch can also be opened up to clear lead jams.
