Hi Pen Fans!
Just a heads up that we will be on vacation until the 31st.
During this time, I will avoid all business emails. Any emails will be most likely returned on Tuesday or Wednesday, the 1st or 2nd of November.
Have a great day!

Hi Pen Fans!
It’s time for our annual Signature Line Group Buy Pen! The 2016 Group Buy Limited Edition Pen is a converter filling Stealth Glenmont!
Please watch the video below for details.
As opposed to previous years, we are not doing a buying and waiting period for the Group Buy Pen. Instead, all of the pens are currently made and ready to ship!
These pens are made with solid black acrylic end caps and section. The barrel and cap are made from a pearlized black acrylic that has plenty of pearlization and depth, but is not too visually “busy”, keeping with the stealth theme.
The clip and nib are given a black oxide treatment for a nice deep black appearance.
All pens will carry a Limited Edition numbered engraving. The edition will be limited to 150 pens.
The nibs are available in steel only. Tip sizes can be EF, F, M, B, 1.1mm italic, or 1.5mm italic.
Price is $185 for this pen (normally $250).
Be sure to watch the video above for all details.
Lastly, if you would like to add any of our leather goods to this order, you can do so by adding those items to your cart in addition to the pen (the leather sleeve that fits the Glenmont is the Medium size).
You can click the link above to purchase.
Thanks!
Hi Pen Fans!
Just a quick blog post to make everyone aware of some recent happenings with regard to tuning, adjustment, and customization of nibs on Edison Pens.
In the past, I have personally tuned every nib that leaves the Edison facility. Very few pen companies bother with this step, but we find this to be an absolutely vital ingredient to our success. I have often said that a great pen with a bad nib is like a Ferrari with a flat tire, and I think that most agree that this is an accurate and interesting analogy!
Many of our customers have commented on how this extra step that we’ve taken from Edison’s first day in business makes a huge difference in how their pens perform, and we wholly agree.
So what is changing? Not much. I will still tune, adjust, and perfect every nib that leaves our facility, but with even more accuracy and better results as I recently finished extensive training with master nib worker Richard Binder. I didn’t simply attend an hour-long seminar. Instead, Richard was kind enough to host a multiple-day visit for personalized instruction. I will also be planning future visits to continue my education with Richard.
While I already had a good foundation in nib work (over the years, we never received any complaints), Richard was able to take my skills to the next level when it comes to “Binderizing” a nib (an extensive general tuning), along with perfecting my italic grinds, oblique grinds, architect grinds, as well as EF to EEEEF grinds.
I think that most customers already realize this, but I will iterate what our nib tuning procedures have been and will continue to be….
With Production Line pens, we perform a “dry” tuning at no charge. This involves…
With Signature Line Pens, we perform a “wet” tuning at no charge. This involves…
So our entire procedure will not change, but the skills used to make each of your nibs to write exactly how you wish have been nicely enhanced!
Thanks!
