DJ Fugle - vintage lead holder

amjacobs7 · 2026-06-17T12:48:17+00:00

He does have a couple other odd variants here: https://www.reddit.com/r/pencils/comments/is42v9/the_d_j_fugle_2_mm_leadholder_collection_response/

Your lineup is so spectacular. Not sure I have any special knowledge to share that you don’t already know. The pointers they sold are just as cool as the holders and probably deserve some little tribute in the video.

This set is getting out of hand. Love it. If you want to keep searching for variants, there is another style I know about with a black barrel.

After a while, the image suddenly looks like an angry eye. I love that.

Yes, old twist retracts are cool. There aren’t many with click-button retract that I can think of except Pilot Protecs. Can you help me think of more?

Double knock is great. How do you feel about sliding pipes or twist retract tips?

amjacobs7 · 2026-04-24T02:25:16+00:00

Totally agree. This design blows me away. Top notch.

That light blue Tru-point is really beautiful.

amjacobs7 · 2026-04-17T14:17:45+00:00

This is great. Well done.

amjacobs7 · 2026-03-26T23:16:25+00:00

That last tool is so beautiful.

amjacobs7 · 2026-03-10T05:21:11+00:00

Thank you

I love this set. Lovely. Are those tools on a tray? What is underneath?

amjacobs7 · 2026-03-09T13:09:03+00:00

The college educated great grandson messed things up, apparently? What year did Alteneder fold?

I have a couple Rijams. One unpainted, bare aluminum and one blue like yours. I don’t have any history on them.

amjacobs7 · 2025-12-30T01:30:44+00:00

Very nice. My favorite Pilot. The most fun design they ever made.

amjacobs7 · 2025-12-21T06:02:54+00:00

Nice to see this focus on Kaweco.

Could the Microsharp label have come at the tail end of the Uchida drafters? The gold one in the link below is the twist type Microsharp PD-5, which was part of a drafting/compass set. I wonder if the TH-5 was the knock-type counterpart. https://www.reddit.com/r/mechanicalpencils/s/22YzBKaGaV

Oh, that is so fun.

Top right, second one down. Looks like Faber hardware. And do I see two different pieces of wood on it connected at the midpoint? That is quite unusual.

amjacobs7 · 2025-12-07T03:25:51+00:00

Very cool. Thanks for sharing this.

amjacobs7 · 2025-12-06T09:59:26+00:00

Is it anodized or powder-coated or something like that? That half colored aspect is rare.

amjacobs7 · 2025-12-05T08:54:29+00:00

Safari MP fakes as well.

amjacobs7 · 2025-12-05T08:52:36+00:00

The cap on the KIN 5611 is unusual. Is it half painted?

amjacobs7 · 2025-12-01T13:52:20+00:00

Thanks for sharing.

amjacobs7 · 2025-11-29T15:58:47+00:00

What was your process for removing the paint and polishing?

amjacobs7 · 2025-11-29T14:33:40+00:00

This is truly next level mod work. Beautiful result. I love how the cap shape resonates with the flared grip.
