My Personal Pens: Classic Pens LM1 Flame Red
The Classic Pens LM1 Flame Red is a large pen, but it is smaller than the Classic Pens LB5 made from the same diffusion-bonded acrylic, and it was limited to 500 pens (375 fountain pens and 125 roller balls). I love this pen, and I believe it is a great pen for everyday carry. I have not yet done a full review on the Classic Pens LM1, but I will record one as soon as I have time.
Classic Pens LB6 Virtues Essence
This pen was kindly lent to me by Andreas Lambrou of Classic Pens. An expensive pen, but a largely handmade pen.
