Scooby. I'll send you a pm. Due to seperation I'm looking at selling most of my high end pens and therefore won't have use for this.

I just got one of the Nockco cases last week. It's a definite steal at $20.

If I carry a pen it is usually only a Parker Vector or more often even a Caran d'Ache 849, but I did recently acquire a Peli 1075 laptop case which, with the handy pick n pluck foam, was easily repurposed as a very capable pen case.

After secretly mocking others for doing so I ended up buying a Pilot Somès. However I did get mine in Japan at a steep discount. I got the 3 pen flap top one. I have used it every single day since and while I rolled my eyes at everyone who said they were worth the price I'll gladly eat crow on that account. I like mine way more than I anticipated. I also have one of the cheaper Pilot Pensemble zip cases and like that a lot too but the Somès is fantastic. Only beef is that you are not getting 3 large pens in it. You can get one large pen in there or maybe 2 if the third is a snorkel or something but even there none of that M1000 biz. You can't even fit 3 CH912 in there. Not a case for monster pens but a very sweet hunk of leather.

Once upon a time I had noticed a massdrop offering of a FC leather case of two pens, it has served me well and it stylish.

Massdrop has an affordable case at $16 that will hold 4 pens in two different case styles that has another 4 hours left to join:

I was given a cigar case with a plastic tray insert that now carries five Nakaya Piccolo Cigars. Was meant to be!

Absolutely. It's definitely my EDC. If I do any travel, or feel I might run low, I also toss in the DIY Ink Box. With this stuff, it's all I need.
BTW, as far as EDC, I've also recently found my other solution... I sometimes end up with a lot of down time at work, and it's perfect for correspondence, but I was always looking around to throw items into my shoulder bag to get it done. I found two different sizes of the Lihit Lab Teffa Bags (pictured is the smaller, A5 size) that can carry all my writing needs, even a beater pen if I just want to take that bag.
This is a quick-and-dirty pic of my setup, which includes: Fabriano EcoQua dot-grid pad, PaperForFountainPens.com Tomoe River (paper) pad, grid sheets for stationery, postcards, notecards w/envelopes, Thank You cards w/envelopes, extra ink cartridges and postage, @curnowbooknleather Backpocket Journal, and a pen I won't die if I lose - a Baoer 388 (Parker Sonnet clone) with a custom italic Knox nib.

It really depends on how many pens I plan to carry. If I am only carrying 3 then I use my Ducati leather pen case. If I am going to carry more I have a generic leather case that holds 12 in elastic bands and more recently a leather case that holds 13 pens. The 13 pen case is made by Wancher.

I have an Elizabeth Newton pen roll that I carry five in. It is easy to drop into whatever bag I am carrying. Everyday I have a Nakaya Dorsal fin and a Newton Orville in ebonite. Sometimes I just carry my Dorsal Fin in a single pen wrap.

In my shirt pocket.
The uniform shirts I wore in the Navy had flap pockets with slots to keep the pens straight up.
Still carry two fountain pens in my shirt pocket. For road trips, I bring a few more in a Nock case that goes in my satchel.
