Fisher Backpacker Space Pen - The Perfect Holiday Gift Pen (Sponsor)

Just in time for the holidays, Fisher Space Pen Co., releases new colors of their Backpacker Space Pen, the perfect gift for travelers. The new Backpackers come in Forest Green, Purple and Gun Metal Gray. Like all Fisher Space Pens, the new Backpackers write upside down, under water, in extreme temperatures from -30 to +250 degrees F (-35 to +121 Celsius), over almost any surface, and three times longer than the average pen. And, they won’t explode or spill ink in the pressurized cabin of an airliner. The Backpacker is a two-piece space pen with a key ring on its cap that easily attaches to your keys, backpack, hiking gear, belt loop or suitcase. It can hang upside down for months and will function immediately when needed. All Fisher Space Pen products are guaranteed for life. Whether you’re on a warm beach or on a frigid mountain, Fisher Space Pens will keep writing under all weather conditions. View and Shop Fisher Backpacker Space Pens

PHENX Products: Orgen, a DLC-coated Twist Pen now on Kickstarter

PHENX Products: Orgen

Introducing Orgen, PHENX products minimalist pen made of aircraft grade stainless steel and coated with a Diamond-like Carbon (DLC) coating. Orgen is manufactured completely in the United States at our shop in Arizona.

The DLC on Orgen makes the coating chip and fade resistant, ensuring that Orgen looks the same from when you first buy it to its last use. Orgen has a satisfying twist mechanism engaging the black 0.5 Pilot G2 insert for smooth writing. It is also compatible with refills from other manufacturers such as Pilot, Ohto, and Uni-ball. This means you will be able to find the refill that suites your needs no matter if you like gel, ballpoint, or any color that fits your style.

At PHENX Products we want you to enjoy the Orgen for a lifetime of use. We take great pride in the products we make and cannot wait for you to get Orgen in your hands to journal, design, take notes, or just doodle during the day.

I Need A Pen (Sponsor)

From experience we know how challenging it can be to find that one, particular pen.

I Need A Pen specialises in hard-to-find pens. Special edition pens, older editions, pens that have sold out, or ones that are only available in other parts of the world. We want to help collectors round out their collections and help individuals find that one, exceptional pen.

As more and more of our lives move into the digital sphere, we want to help keep people connected to the tangible world. The act of writing is an art and I Need A Pen is here to ensure you practice your craft with the right implement.

We have been involved in the pen industry for nearly for a decade. We founded Fontoplumo in 2012, which sells a wide range of writing instruments. Initially, Fontoplumo was an online store, but in 2016 we opened a location in the Dutch city of Delft where pen lovers can see our continually changing selection. We’ve even worked with some of your favorite pen brands to create unique special editions.

We pride ourselves on our excellent customer service. The I Need A Pen webshop gives you the ease of 21st-century shopping but you’re always welcome to contact us for personalised service. We know what it is like to struggle to find that special, specific pen. We’re on the lookout for some ourselves.

We are always on the lookout for pen collections – either from private collectors or from other businesses. If you are interested in selling, please contact us about a possible acquisition.
