Spiffy Lab 2XL Ballpoint Pen

Measuring 6.5 inches long, the Spiffy Lab 2XL ballpoint pen features a tough yet understated aesthetic that works as well in the workshop as it does in the office. The screw-on cap—which is mostly knurled—is fitted with a heavily bowed pocket clip that can be removed with a 3.0 hex key. Rubber O-rings ensure a tight seal for both the cap and endcap. The 2XL comes with a G2 refill, and accepts all standard rollerball refills.

Part of Jac Zagoory’s Artist Series, the pocket-size “Brooklyn Dreams” Commuter Journal features a linocut illustration of the Brooklyn Bridge by local artist Craig Wilwol. Inside, 28 lined pages of 60-gram paper give you a place to jot down your thoughts, while the stitched binding allows the notebook to lay flat for a larger writing surface.

Measuring 5 by 7 inches, this notebook features 65 stone paper pages inside a spiral-bound recycled cover. Made from natural stone, the paper is environmentally friendly, waterproof, and tear resistant. It provides an wonderfully smooth writing experience and a soft feel when handled, and it won’t smear or smudge.
