REVIEW – I enjoy keeping a paper journal, notebook, diary, log, whatever you want to call it. I use one every day to write down 3-4 tasks that I want to accomplish because I’ve found that writing them on paper and checking them off as I finish them, actually makes me more productive than putting

NEWS – From the why-would-anyone-pay-this-much-for-something-like-this-but-give-it-to-me-now file comes the TM2. What is it? It’s an aluminum, black anodized aluminum, copper, brass, or titanium case/cover for the classic Sharpie permanent marker. How does it work? Take a Sharpie marker, throw away the cap, unscrew the 2 halves of TM2 case, slide the Sharpie into it, screw the

REVIEW – Sometimes, you need to make a statement. People use several things to make those statements. Designer clothing, swiss watches, and other statement pieces that set a tone or expectation.

Secondly, it’s available in 4 finishes including the titanium bronze (above on the left) and the wickedly cool Zirconium (on the right), titanium (below), and

NEWS – It gets a little tiresome when everything that happens to have a point on it is called tactical, but you have to admit that people love reading about EDC gear (including myself), so here we go with another multi-tool, multi-function, tactical (there, I said it) pen. It’s the Stinger and I’m guessing if

REVIEW – Unless you’re a nocturnal animal, it’s hard to see what you’re writing when it’s dark. WUBEN decided that having a built-in rechargeable light on an EDC style pen would be a great idea to fix that problem. Let’s see if they were right by taking a look at the WUBEN Gecko E61 Rechargeable

REVIEW – The Aurora Talentum Finesse is the second fountain pen I have ever used. I originally reviewed the Namiki Falcon fountain pen way back in 2013 and to be honest, have only used it occasionally to handwrite a letter or note on special occasions. Really no fault of its own, I really like it
