Current Inventory Updated and (gasp) No More Binder Flex nibs!

Hi Pen Fans.

A quick post with a couple of topics

First, the inventory that we made for the San Francisco Pen Show has been photographed and uploaded to our galleries. There are about 50-60 pens that are new to the galleries and ready to ship. Click here to see all of the pens that are ready with no waiting. Email me if you are interested in one of these pens.

Below is quick slideshow of these pens or you can click this link for the gallery.

Next, we can no longer offer Binder Flex nibs. 🙁

Say it ain’t so!

It’s been about 3-4 years since Richard Binder announced his retirement. Since then I’ve considered myself lucky that he was willing to continue making flex nibs for us, in spite of his mostly retired status.

I knew that the day would come when Richard would want to either back off or stop completely, and that day has come unfortunately.

So we can no longer offer Binder Flex Nibs, I’m sorry! All of the flex nibs that we have left are accounted for with backlogged orders. So if you have an order in with us that involves a flex nib, fear not! We do have your nib!

I’d like to take a minute to thank Richard for doing these flex nibs for as long as he did. Richard was essentially continuing to do me a favor as a friend after his retirement, and I’ve always been very grateful that he continued making these for Edison as long as he did.

Please don’t forget that we still do offer Edison Stock Flex Nibs. These nibs are definitely quite respectable as what I call “modern” flex, whereas Richard’s nibs were just like vintage “wet-noodles’, both having their place.

Please reach out with any questions.

2019 San Francisco Pen Show and LE Exclusive Pen for the Show!

Hi Pen Fans!

We’re packing for the San Francisco Pen Show! We’ll be set up this weekend Friday through Sunday. This is the first time attending the San Francisco Pen Show, so we truly hope to see some of our fans that we haven’t been able to meet face-to-face yet.

We will be bringing a Limited Edition pen that will be exclusive to the SF Pen Show. See here for all details regarding this pen or watch the video below.

Besides the LE Exclusive Pen, we’ll be bringing more than 360 pens to this show. All of these pens are shown in the video below.

If you see something that you like but can’t attend the show, feel free to email me to discuss.

Thanks!

Current Inventory Pen Shows Time Away

Back from Vacation, Current Inventory Updated, San Francisco…

Hi Pen Fans!

Andrea and I recently returned from a sorely needed vacation. We are well rested and settled back in. It’s nice to get away, but after a while I look forward to getting back to work! I’ve been buried in emails this week, but my head is just about above water now.

While we were gone, our crew was able to get a lot of pens made for Current Inventory. If you are interested in a pen without waiting for through backlog, we have well over 300 pens that are ready to ship with no waiting! You can click the link above, or view the slideshow below (if you can’t see the slideshow, please click here). Email me if you have interest in one of these pens.

Part of the reason for making these pens while we were gone was to replenish our stock that is ready to ship, but also to get pens ready for the San Francisco Pen Show, which is not that far away in August.

And speaking of the San Francisco Pen Show – stay tuned! We have plans coming together for a Limited Edition Pen that will be exclusive to San Francisco! We’ve never attended the San Francisco show before, so we’re going to do so with a splash! Stay tuned as the show gets closer for details regarding this pen and other pens that we’ll be bringing.

Lastly, expect more updates and details to follow in the near future. Now that we are back from vacation, we’re back to work on lots of new items to follow this year. Stay tuned!

Thanks!

Current Inventory Updated!

Hi Pen Fans!

Since the Chicago Pen Show, things have been awfully busy. It was just this week that we were able to photograph all of the pens from the Chicago Show that didn’t sell and update our galleries with them. So in total, there are more than 300 pens that are currently ready to ship.

Right now our backlog is about 8-9 weeks. But for those who would rather not wait, pens that are currently inventoried and waiting for good homes can be found HERE, or you can see these pens in the slide show below.

If you are interested in one of these pens, please email me.

Thanks!

Current Inventory Updated!

Hi Pen Fans!

We are in the midst of our preparation for the LA Pen Show, which is fast around the corner. In doing so, we have a lot of new pens in our Current Inventory gallery that are ready to ship with no waiting through or normal backlog, which is currently about 10 weeks.

You can see more here. Or here’s a direct link to the Current Inventory Gallery. Lastly, I will post a slideshow below showing these pens.

We will be making a lot more pens for the LA Pen Show than what you see in the Gallery right now, but I wanted to make our fans aware that this gallery now has a lot of new pens that are waiting for good homes! 🙂

I’ll be posting more updates regarding the LA Pen Show as the date draws closer. We hope to see you there!

Current Inventory Updated!

Hi Pen Fans!

With our preparations for the Chicago Pen Show, we manufactured a lot of new pens. Many of them were not claimed in Chicago.

We were able to get all of these pens photographed and uploaded into our Current Inventory Gallery.

So if you are interested, there are a good amount of pens in some new and excellent materials that we haven’t had in the galleries yet.

There’s a slideshow below, or you can click here.

Thanks!

Hi Pen Fans!

Well, our heads are finally above water since the DC Pen Show!

Due to this, we’ve been able to photograph all pens that didn’t sell in DC and get them into the Current Inventory Gallery.

There are more than just a few examples of materials that we’ve never used before, so if you are looking for a unique pen with no waiting, that’s where to go.

You can see the gallery here, or you can watch the slideshow below.

Thanks!

Current Inventory Updated!

Hi Pen Fans!

It’s been rather hectic since the LA Pen Show, but things have finally returned to normal!

We’ve had a chance to update our Current Inventory Galleries with all of the pens that we made in preparation for the LA Pen Show.

Since the last time that you would have seen this gallery, there’s been about 40 Menlos, as well as about 70 other different models added.  So this gallery will look pretty different now, with lots more to choose from.

If you see a pen within this gallery that you like, it’s ready to ship with no waiting!  Email me to inquire.

I’ll embed a slideshow with this gallery below.  If you can’t see this slideshow, go here for the Current Inventory Gallery.

Thanks!

Current Inventory Galleries Updated!

Hi Pen Fans!

We are pretty well settled in after the DC Pen Show!  Very exhausting, but it’s always great to see our regulars, and also meet new customers!

We have the Currently Inventory Galleries updated to reflect what sold in DC.  So any pen that you see at the link here, or within the slideshow below is waiting to find a new home!  Email us to inquire.

(If you can’t see the slideshow, click here)

As a side note, I am working on a nice video blog post to announce the 2014 LE Group Buy Pen right now!  This announcement should be up today or tomorrow!  Stay tuned!

Current Inventory Updated!

Hi Pen Fans!

After the Michigan Pen Show, we had a chance to get everything photographed and uploaded to the Current Inventory Gallery!

If you can’t see the slideshow below, click here.

Any pens in the gallery above are in stock and ready to ship, no waiting.  You can email me if you are interested in one of these pens.

In particular, I wanted to highlight a couple of Menlo Pump Fillers that I thought turned out really nice!  These pens came to be as I had a couple pieces of pretty rare stock, but didn’t have enough length to make a whole pen.  We thought that making a few Menlos with a black cap, section, and blind cap would be nice, and I pretty sure you’ll see more like these!  I love how these turned out! 

If you like either of these pens, they are the absolute last of each material.  I can’t make more like them.  See below….

Menlo Pump Filler in Black Speck Acrylic….

…and a Menlo in Black/White Cellulose Acetate….

Thanks!
