This week we focused on bringing back some old favorites, including some that have been out of stock for a year or more. First up is the Lamy Logo Tri Pen, which is an excellent Lamy multi pen if you prefer a slimmer format. (Similar options include the Lamy ST and Lamy CP1 Multi Pen line.) We also have additional Lamy 2000 stock, including fine and extra fine fountain pens and 4-Color multipens.

As we noted on Tuesday, we also received a large shipment of inks from Tono & Lims, as well as a restock of Lamy bottled ink and Pilot Iroshizuku. But most exciting is that we have enough stock to be able to open our latest TGS Curated Box to the general customer base. There are a couple left, so if you’d like to participate in this round get yours soon.

The Nashville shop is open normal hours this weekend, from 1-6pm Thursday and Friday and 10am-5pm on Saturday. If you are interested in attending our upcoming On the Paper Trail Live in Nashville event in October, we strongly encourage you to purchase a ticket in advance, as we are unsure how many can be made available at the door.

Lamy Logo Tri-Pen Multi-Pen. By customer request, we’ve brought back the Lamy Logo Tri-Pen, which is a slimmer multi pen that takes universal D1 refills. This one features a stainless steel body with a matte black cap.
Lamy 2000 Fountain Pens. We have additional stock of all Lamy 2000 nib sizes available! Some of you have been waiting for the EF and F nibs to arrive, and they are here.
Pilot Custom 912 (FA Nib). The Pilot Custom 912 is now available from us in the softest nib that Pilot makes - the FA “Falcon” nib. The 912 version of this nib is slightly softer than the version on the Custom 743, so this nib will really show off multi-shading inks.
Pilot Custom 74 Lavender Fog. We have additional stock of Pilot’s latest North American exclusive release, including stock of the Soft Fine and Soft Medium nibs. Those looking for a nib to grind at an upcoming pen show should consider the double broad, which gives a nibmeister a lot of tipping to work with!
Lamy 2000 Multi-Pens (4-Color Ballpoints). Possibly our favorite multi pen of all time, the Lamy 2000 version comes in the same Black Makrolon as the rest of the Lamy 2000 line, and accepts universal D1 refills for maximum flexibility.
Tono & Lims Friendship Fountain Pen Inks. We’ve received a large shipment of the Tono & Lims “Friendship” collaboration inks, including the Bechorium series inks in all variants (yes, even the turquoise shimmer HexacyanidoferrateII).
Tono & Lims “Deep Field” Fountain Pen Inks. These two inks are some of the craziest multi-shaders we carry in the shop, and during our last shipment both sold out nearly instantaneously. We made sure to order more this time around.
Tono & Lims Remastered Limited Edition Fountain Pen Inks. Certain limited edition inks are re-released for the overseas market. This batch includes the “Beyond the Horizon” inks with coveted multi-shaders like “Turbulent Sea”.
Lamy Safari Meteorite and Meteora Pens. The latest Lamy Safari release includes two textured models in black and dark purple. We have a restock of the fountain pens as well as rollerballs.
Lamy Safari Mechanical Pencil “Kuru-Toga Inside”. The Japanese market has access to the Lamy Safari mechanical pencil that also includes Uni’s patented rotating Kuru Toga engine. We managed to secure a small supply of these. Available both online and in-store.

Tono and Lims Beyond the Horizon Ink — Multi-shader “Turbulent Sea” is a customer favorite that we’re happy to bring back!

Plus Some Underappreciated Gems from Lamy and TWSBI….

As we’re discovering once you have access to the full manufacturers’ catalogs, there are tons of exceptionally good pens, pencils, and more out there that don’t receive much attention from the FOMO factory on social media simply because they’re not “new”, despite being well-made and even unique! We had a few such items arrive recently, including the Lamy Logo “Tri Pen” Multi Pen (which uses the same gravity-driven color selector as the Lamy 2000), as well as the TWSBI Diamond Mini in the “Classic” (Black Cap) color. We make every effort to stock some of the lesser known pens, some of which fly under the radar for reasons I cannot comprehend. (Like the polished wood Lamy 2000 ballpoints….)

Don’t forget that through the end of May, we are running a pencil promotion where you can get 10% off all pencils and pencil accessories using “PENCIL10” at checkout (excluding Blackwing and TWSBI)! We’d also love to host you in person. Our brick-and-mortar shop is open Thursday and Friday from 1-6pm, and Saturday from 10am-6pm. Keep an eye on this page for details and updates.
