They recently said that their pens are made all over the world. A few might still be made in the US but I believe Taiwan is the major source.

I think that this list really depends on how many small and independents you want to count.

The only major player is Bexley.

If you want to start splitting hairs, I can list plenty of penmakers that are independent, and manufacturing every part for their pens (excluding nibs of course.) If you want to count these, then you can get into.....

Michael's Fatboy
Edison
David Broadwell
Bruno Corsini
Joe Cali
...I could go on.

Brian,

Thats exactly what I'm looking for. Independents, making everything (not kit pens) and outsourcing the nibs.

"...I could go on."

Please do. The floor is yours my man!

It would sure be helpful if someone would post links for all these makers' Web sites, or at least for those who have them. smile.gif

Don't forget Brian Goulet (Goulet Pen Company)! I'm another one of those 'small independents' everyone's talking about. But hey, how do you think these big companies became big? They all had to start somewhere!
