Hightide Penco Bullet Ballpoint Pen Light

Don’t be misled by its playful appearance — the Penco Bullet Ballpoint Pen Light is a seriously well-designed writing tool. Made in Japan, this compact little number is crafted for those who need a pen that slips neatly into any pocket or pencil case, without compromising on performance. With oil-based black ink and a satisfyingly smooth glide, it’s always ready to jot, doodle, or dash off that grocery list you’ve forgotten thrice. The sturdy ABS resin body comes in 12 cheerful colours — mix and match lids, if you fancy being a bit of a maverick. Also available as a mechanical pencil.

What Makes It Work So Well

• Truly Pocket-Sized: Measuring just 9.3 cm closed, it fits into even the slimmest of spaces without a fuss.

• Built to Travel: Ultra-light at 8g, and made from tough ABS resin — it’s ready to roam.

• Refillable Reliability: Uses standard D1 refills, so you’re never caught inkless.
