My thanks to Kenro Industries, US distributor for ystudio, for sponsoring The Pen Addict This Week.
ystudio is one of my favorite pen brands, and right now they are offering a free ystudio Pocket Journal with the purchase of any ystudio pen at site sponsor Pen Chalet. Take a look at these great pens, and all of the Black Friday deals now live at Pen Chalet.

The Penwell is a writing tool that makes using capped pens handy, and the new Craftsman model brings that same function in a heavy, handmade concrete form. Available in either a Standard model or Deluxe (which doubles the weight with a heavy brass base), the Penwell stays put on your desk and manages your pen cap so you're able to efficiently use your favorite pens for stop and go writing with only one hand. The Craftsman is now available on Kickstarter in three colors and starts at $59 for the Standard, $79 for the Deluxe.
The Ensso ARIA is the upgraded BIC ballpoint barrel you have been searching for.
ARIA is machined from solid bars of space-grade (6061-T6511) aluminum and natural brass. The lightweight aluminum version is anodized in matte black for an understated and elegant aesthetic. The brass edition is heavier and offers a more tactile experience. The brass is left uncoated and will develop a patina over time. Such patina is appreciated by collectors but can easily be removed with any brass-cleaning product for a new and shiny appearance.
ARIA is available on Kickstarter for $29 (50% discount off future retail price). My thanks to ENSSO for sponsoring The Pen Addict this week.
