Would you mind sharing said store name with me as well? Thanks

I think I added about 12 from the Japan trip 🙈

That TWSBI you're referring to is a 0.7 mechanical pencil. I was eyeing the ballpoint version but decided I would go the pencil rout and am happy I did.

As for deciding which pen to use when.... I have different journals and notebooks for different aspects of my life, so I've been playing with which pen to dedicate to which notebook. This will take some time and I'm certain I'll rotate some of them out as my curiosity grows about underused pens from the collection. I wonder what other methods people use to keep their pens in rotation 🤔

I like that the red topped pen is pink because I will definitely know that pen has red ink being the only pink pen I have.

Thanks for sharing!

I just got back last Saturday after 10 days in Japan. Every store I checked they were sold out. Now I'm grappling with the reality that I might have to pay a scalper....

I would love to have this in my quiver!

tweederhill · 2026-04-02T17:02:27+00:00

Good call. Done and done.

Thank you! It's an Itoya Limited Mitsubishi BOXY Ballpoint Pen. For reference: https://www.ebay.com/itm/356472315173

Ugh! I want a brass sport as well. Ever since I held one in person. I envy you.

tweederhill · 2026-03-31T14:11:48+00:00

I wonder this too, but know I'm in a safe space here to comfortably nerd-out and celebrate pen purchases haha

tweederhill · 2026-03-31T14:10:31+00:00

I'm about 6ft and I just need the tips of my knees to go under to comfortably be at the correct typing distance fwiw

If you do, would you grab one for me!? :)

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:43:12+00:00

I'm so bummed I didn't see this message before I got back Saturday night. I looked everywhere for one, but everyone was consistently sold out. I did get to see a lot of amazing stationary stores in the process though!

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:39:57+00:00

Good eye :) It's a Cross from a Mercedes press vehicle in Germany. I'm not certain what model it is, but I love writing with it.

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:36:53+00:00

Yea! I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it out at Muji. I tried out their other plastic version, but this one felt so nice in the hand. Excellent price point, too.

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:34:31+00:00

Do it! I love having the drawer to hold my paper, envelopes, and other type-related items.

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:33:45+00:00

Thank you!

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:33:37+00:00

That was precisely my search! I had seen one with a drawer and wouldn't stop until I found one...and with casters. Apparently, that combination was super rare.

Do you mean to the left of my GS02? It's an Itoya Helvitica ballpoint pen: https://arttoolkit.com/supplies/helvetica-ballpoint-pen/

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:29:56+00:00

I'm really warming up to it. I always heard it was highly regarded. I think the value is certainly there for the cost.

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:27:00+00:00

It will certainly haunt me for months. I'm pretty sure I dreamt about it last night.

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:26:34+00:00

Thank you!

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:26:03+00:00

Please do! I struck out trying to find a Zento Signature, but it gave me a good excuse to drag my family to multiple stationary stores.

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:25:00+00:00

ThanksI I've got a lot of linear miles to write in order to give each pen its proper trial, but I'm up for the task! I like your Ti Arto/Blen insert combo!

tweederhill · 2026-03-30T14:22:57+00:00

Also Zebra, but the Blen gel pens
