Question how many users of pencils do you know consistently showing and actually on a daily basis preferring one. Keepsakes of all things I have in the thousands I suppose. Pencils I used them in the workshop for years then went for 2B,s ordinary pencils in the one dozen pack.
Trust you are able to satisfy your order and customer the last known sighting of a guy with a few pen combinations ie more than one that comes to mind is the Murder series with Inspector Frost who from what I can see rarely writes anything.
Propelling pencil lead is infamous in the softer legible grades to breaking off at the least reason and the means of replacing,availability of and ease of use a pain. I am aware the wearing of jackets in the Uk is absolutely needed for longer in the year and they support pens better but the shirt pocket soon shows the effect of more than one writing instrument.
THe most apparent pen I have ever seen was a larger Fountain pen weilded like a sword by a Barrister some years ago terribly impressive when signing legal documents I remember the performance still.
On the other hand we have at least twenty pens scattered around mostly from the Credit Union Bank unfailing click variety that we use, I can see at least ten at my desk. If I am at a garage sale etc I carry the throw away pens in my old gear remembering just who I am I do the same at hardware stores.
I am very kindly disposed in full respect for members who sell different pens and pencils having spent some time watching or helping my mates who make heaps from selling theirs. Pencils in sets sell especially in a combination pen box.over here.
