Autopoint Twist-Action Stylus/BPs
Permalink Closed

I finally got around to shooting photos of my group of Autopoint twist Stylus/BP pens. These Sheaffer Connaisseur look-alikes are actually lacquer-coated brass, and quite hefty. These come only as stylus models, but use Parker-style refills, so a quick swap gives you a Parker-fueled Sheaffer look-a-like. There has to be some irony in that!

I like them, and at $4 or 5 each with stylus tip, I don't try to pretend they are anything but very useful writing tools, with a decent look. Mine are black/gold lacquer, and Red Leather-look, and Black Leather-look. Not nearly as real-looking as my Legacy Heritage leather pen, but I don't care about that. They are USA-made, in Janesville, WI.

Nice! Those are the "Leathern" and "Lacquer" models, right?

They should kill two birds with one stone and top the things with capacitive stylus tips as well as the resistive tips inside.

Mike,
Yes, you're correct. For the price, they make nice everyday pens if a heavier, presumably brass-body pen suits your style. I'll have to get myself another All-American pencil when I order from them next. I also like their Jotter-clone pens, and own 3 of those. I appreciate that they are an American company producing decent and affordable products I like using.
