Staff Picks

When we thought about having some curated ‘Picks’ where people would show you their favourite pens that we sell, we naturally thought of ourselves. Who better to know about pens than us? We’re not experts at much, but we do know a bit about pens.

More specifically, we started by asking Simon and Amanda, who started Cult Pens to give us their picks - even among us, they’re probably the experts. So that’s what this list is - some of our favourite pens, particularly Simon and Amanda’s favourites. So what will you find in here?

There are some classics, like the Caran d’Ache 849 and Fixpencil, the beautiful Waterman Carene and the Pentel Kerry pencil. There are fun favourites like the KUM Globus pencil sharpener, OHTO Smile Clips, and the happy Caran d’Ache Double Hole Pencil Sharpener. There are useful little gems like the PLUS Fitcut Curve Smart Scissors and the Kaco Ruma bookmark/ruler. And some practical everyday tools like the Uni Jetstream, the Zebra Expandz and the safer Slice craft knife.

And of course we couldn’t miss some of our own exclusive products, like our Cult Pencil and Mini Fountain Pen, and the Deep Dark inks made for us by Diamine.
