Has anyone here tried the Cult Pens double-knock pencil?
It’s only been available in 0.7mm for like 16 months, so no.
I have about 300lbs of boxed vintage Pentel 0.7 lead. I’m going to drop it off at your house and block your driveway.
I’m that good of a friend.
I want to thank you. I was unaware of this website. I just placed an order on 15 pencils that were were at least double the price on Amazon US and eBay. I am most excited about the Platinum offerings. The MSD-500 alone was almost $45 shipped elsewhere, and I just paid $7.28 and $20 shipping for the whole order. I am so glad I found you all and again thank you so very much!
You bet. Cult Pens is awesome.
I think you will really like this site.
If all goes well with this order, I will definitely be a repeat customer.
Where are you located @TheLaw1989 ?
I am in Missouri
I wish I’d known about that double-knock when I placed my Cult Pens order a few months back. They had a terrific sale on Diplomat Aero pens & pencils. Not only were some colors discounted, there was a 30% discount on top of that. I got the black/orange Aero pencil (hard to find that color combination elsewhere and none had such a great price).
It’s also a great idea to browse their refills section too, anytime you order. They’re almost always below Amazon US prices.
When TheLaw discovers Mercari and the prices at which some pencils/lots are being sold…
Let’s just say there won’t be enough logos to draw.
I am interested in how you all do it for sure, but I don’t know if I am ready for that rabbit hole
I got one exactly because it is a 0.7!
Mechanism is basically the same as the current day MANUFACTUM.
Knurling beats the Blick Premier hands down.
added to my want list -
Speaking of Cult Pens, I have had their double-knock in my basket since this post. I am having trouble paying $20 to ship a $15 pencil. Ordinarily I’d just throw another MP or two into the mix to help justify the shipping cost, but I don’t want to grab anything that I can get cheaper here in the US. Aside from the Ohto MS01 (already have – lovely pencil BTW) can you recommend any other MPs on the Cult Pens web site that are not (normally or widely) available for sale in the US?
They’re charging $20 USD for shipping? I thought they had a better rate scale than that. When I placed my order (mentioned above), I’d added a variety of refills (best prices around) and pushed me just over into the free shipping zone. But yikes, I just checked and now it’s up to $135 USD before shipping is free. Ouch!
Yeah, the knurling on the Blick Premier is not aggressive. For some, too smooth. I find it adequate, though. The internal spring is very nicely tight. And I like the weight of it. I wish the clip wasn’t chromed, though. A nice matte would be preferrable.
Try the Leuchtturm Drehgriffel in ballpoint, gel or 0.7 MP. It’s much cheaper to get it from the UK or EU…
LAMY models are also cheaper thru them.
There’s actually a US site for Leuchtturm Drehgriffel. But not much of a selection.
