Believe the Hype? Unpacking the Penco Perfection Ballpoint and Mechanical Pencil

You may have seen the recent NYTimes review featuring the Penco Perfection Ballpoint Pen, which was given the crown of "Best Pocket Pen" or "Favorite Pocket Pen" or something to that effect. We've had this pen for years in our shop, reviewing it on the blog all the way back in 2020, and it was curious that it took five years for this little pen to get some recognition. While the article focused on the brass version of the Penco Perfection, today I'll take a look at the plastic "Perfection Light" version, which comes in both a .7mm ballpoint pen and a .5mm mechanical pencil. 0:15 Introduction 1:28 Penco Perfection Light .7mm Ballpoint Pen Demonstration 2:23 Penco Perfection Light .5mm Mechanical Pencil Demonstration 3:00 Joe's Opinion 5:09 Quick Writing Samples from both the pen and the pencil Check out my previous review of the Penco Perfection (Metal Version) here: https://www.gentlemanstationer.com/blog/2020/10/28/what-more-pocket-pens-introducing-the-penco-perfection Find these and more in our shop: https://www.gentlemanstationer.com/curated-shop-brands Penco Perfection Light Ballpoint: https://www.gentlemanstationer.com/the-curated-shop/penco-perfection-light-bullet-pen Penco Perfection Light Mechanical Pencil: https://www.gentlemanstationer.com/curated-pencils/penco-perfection-light-bullet-pencil-5mm If you enjoy our content, please give us a follow!
