Hipster Heaven with Lamy

I picked up some new instruments today. I had just left an eye appointment and my office supply shop is RIGHT THERE so I had to go in and take a look. I have been wanting a real live grown-up mechanical pencil (my Rotring had just exploded into 8 different pieces) again and had to see what they had. So I got a pen too. I tried several -- the Pico is a great Anti-Spacepen. I think it feels a lot better in my hand than the FSP. The Scribble is just a very nice mechanical pencil that isn't /too nice/. I found out you can easily spend hundreds on mechanical pencils if you want to. The Scribble has a nice design, and was a great fit for my small girlish hands. As you can see I like matte black. The pico is a bit bigger than the FSP, but doesn't have a cap that can fall off or get lost. 5 Comments

The Scribble is a nice pencil. I carried one for quite a while, but then got hooked on older stuff... so these days I tend to carry a 1934 Shaeffer pencil. Big, fat leads feel more like writing with a pen than a pencil. Of course, have to have a few true technical pencils around for fine writing and/drawing. Good choices! » POSTED IN:
