Hello pen people,

Here's a pen I am just in the process of shipping out. This one is one of my 'Shirt Pocket Fountain Pens' (compact size, comfortable and securely posting) with a bit of a difference - the request was to make this one clipless. I hadn't expected to make a SPFP clipless, as I personally depend on the clip to keep a pen safe in my shirt pocket, but as it turns out, there are many who prefer to keep their pens loose in the pocket (or, in pants pockets etc). Whatever works!

Thanks for looking!

I like your pen very much. I like clipless pens, though mine are antiques, and do not have a shirt pocket problem, because I treat pens as valuable objects and keep them in a proper pouch when carrying. I am not quite so sure about having an acrylic object jostling around free with my keys in my pants pocket, and I doubt whether the recipient of your fine works, will either.

I would think the clip would be more important to users who wear shirts with pockets (more likely with men or men and women who wear uniforms like postal workers, military personnel, etc.) than it would be with people who do not. I keep a pen in my handbag and in my bookbag, but they are usually secured in either a special pocket or in a pen roll or something like that.

I like the looks of that pen. It has nice proportions. The raspberry swirl is eye catching, too!

This looks great, personally if I put a pen down on my desk it will roll off unless its faceted or has a clip, hopefully both, keep up the good work :)
