Pens are such a common technology that we sometimes forget that they needs cuddles too. So we are especially happy that this reviewer in the UK took the time to thank the simple ballpoint pen. The pen is so lovingly described! Imagine how happy it would be writing thank-you notes with a Wan Letter Set. It could also test its meddle against some Sushi Erasers, just for giggles.

We have a friend in LA who is a connoisseur of greats pens. And we know others who always borrow the complementary pens of hotels and soda fountains. What’s your favorite?
