Thursday Drops: Fourth of July Sale, New Pilot Hi-Tec-C Coletos, New Blackwings, and More!

July 4, 2024

Our annual Fourth of July Sale starts today and will run through Sunday evening at 11:59pm U.S. Central Time. Use the coupon code “FIREWORKS” at check out to take 10% off most shop orders. Some exclusions apply, including Pilot, TWSBI, Blackwing, and Roterfaden. Many of you know that we are planning a move to our physical location in the next month or so, and would love to not have to move inventory with us!

Several new arrivals also hit the shop this week, including the latest Blackwing Volumes Release: Volume 746, the Golden Gate Bridge pencil. This deep red (“International Orange”) pencil features a multi-layered matte barrel with a matching eraser, matte black ferrule and firm graphite. Between this pencil and Volume 2 (Let the Light In), with the extra-extra firm graphite, these are two of the better releases from the entire Volumes series. Single-step sharpeners, legal pads, and handheld erasers are all in stock.

All the Coleto Gel Refills!

As we announced Tuesday, we recently received a massive shipment of Pilot Hi-Tec-C Coleto Multi Pens, and all of the refills! The Coleto is one of my favorite multi pen systems, due in part to its low price of entry (barrels start at $3) and customizability (nearly three dozen gel, pencil, and eraser refills). Be sure to check these out and more!

Remember that all domestic U.S. orders over $75 ship free! No coupon code necessary, and this is in addition to any applicable discount.

  1. Blackwing Volume 746 “Golden Gate Bridge” Pencils. Featuring the same firm graphite found in the Blackwing 602, this could be my favorite color scheme of all time in a Blackwing Volumes pencil. We also have fresh stock of the Volume 2, which features the XX-firm graphite.

  2. Pilot Hi-Tec-C Coleto Multi Pens. One of my favorite multi pens of all time, the Hi-Tec-C Coleto features Pilot’s excellent Hi-Tec-C needle-tip gel refill in a multi pen format, and it comes in dozens of different colors. Mechanical pencil and eraser inserts are also available.

  3. Roterfaden Taschenbegleiter Organizers. While we can’t include Roterfaden organizers in our sale, now is a great time to pick one up and stock up on A4, A5, and A6 notebooks (all of which are compatible and included in today’s promotion). There are several “soft” A5 covers available, which in my opinion are the best option for those who want to use thicker Hobonichi Cousin-style notebooks with their Roterfaden, as they’re cut slightly bigger.

  4. Traveler’s Notebook Systems. This weekend is a great time to build out a Traveler’s Notebook with all of the refills and accessories! We received a fresh shipment of refills a couple of weeks ago and are fully stocked.

  5. Stálogy Notebook Systems. Stálogy released a limited edition white half-year notebook this year, which pairs well with the new Stálogy notebook stitched covers, made from a high-quality Japanese paper designed to be durable and long-lasting.

  6. Midori MD Notebook Refills. We have a wide variety of different Midori MD Paper notebooks in stock, including the recently expanded MD Cotton line which now includes standard A5 and Square A5 notebooks. The MD “Light” Notebooks are a great option for Roterfaden.

  7. TWSBI ECO-T “Eggplant Purple”. This particular TWSBI ECO-T features a translucent purple color that apparently will be in short supply. TWSBI keeps emphasizing how this one will be a limited run, so we’re not expecting much additional stock.

  8. TWSBI Diamond 580 AL “Iceberg Blue” Fountain Pen. Those who prefer the non-textured metal section on the Diamond 580 fountain pens will appreciate this release - it’s been a while since the last one. Ice Blue/Glacier Blue/Iceberg - whatever you want to call it - is always a popular color choice.

  9. Kaweco Piston Filler Sport and Art Sport Fountain Pens. We carry most Kaweco Sport fountain pens, and still have some limited stock of the Piston Sport and Art Sport releases from this year. The Art Sports feature some of my favorite materials from 2023 or 2024.

  10. Zebra Sarasa Grand Vintage Gel Pens and Refills. We’ve been looking to add some higher-end “professional” gel pens to the shop, and the Zebra Sarasa Grand Vintage features a wide range of work-friendly colors in .3mm and .5mm formats. Many of the “Vintage” series gel inks are black-infused, and
