Who knew that today is Mechanical Pencil Day?
OK, we'll be honest and confess that we didn't know either until we received an email from our colleagues at Cult Pens up the road in Tiverton. It's their initiative, and they quite rightly point out that there is a Fountain Pen day, so why not a Mechanical Pencil Day too?
So we thought we'd lend them some support and create a special offer for our market leading Mistral mechanical pencil kits.
It's no coincidence that ...
We've got huge amounts of new stock arriving over the coming days and weeks, so we've been clearing out the dark forgotten corners of our warehouse to make room for it.

DiamondCast pen blanks tend to fly out of our door pretty quickly.
Why are they so popular?
Well, if you’ve never come across them before, you won’t know that DiamondCast pen blanks are made from polyurethane, and coloured using iridescent mica powders, which produce a wonderful chatoyance inside the resin. Not only that, the major point about them is that they contain jewellery grade, real diamond particles, which result in an absolutely outstanding sparkle in the finished ...

What can we do about all those annoying little plastic bags we send out in their hundreds and thousands each week that contain the parts of our pen kits? We've been puzzling our little minds with this dilemma for some time. We're very aware that most of our pen kit bags probably end up in the bin, and consequently in landfill (or worse) and you'd have to live on a different planet not to realise the harm they cause to our own planet.

What? Moving again?
Yes, but to permanent premises this time.
We moved back in January, and have spent the last 6 months working hard, but able to enjoy the peaceful and beautiful surroundings of Exmoor, in the south west of England. However, relocating from the Highlands of Scotland to the south west of England, as we did, was a mighty undertaking, and the premises we've been occupying in the meantime have been rented.
Our short term lease has now expired, and we've used the ...
We're mightily relieved to see these kits back in stock after running out over Easter.
Our hugely popular gold & gunmetal Sirocco pen kits are back in stock - Phew!
The Beaufort Sirocco is the original British designed pen kit to use Sierra compatible tubes. What's the advantage of Sierra compatible tubes? Well, it means that all the masses of pen blanks out there, cast on Sierra tubes by the many, many blank makers in the pen making comunity, will all fit a Sirocco pen kit. ...
