Story

Stübby is a pen whose tip extends counter-intuitively when pulled. While seemingly magical, it is. If it's difficult for you to fathom how it's possible, you should buy Stübby and simply indulge in the magic of it.

Stübby features a predominantly stainless steel construction that has a pleasant heft in the hand. All parts are fabricated to difficult-to-believe precisions, then exquisitely hand-assembled with unbelievably good-looking hands.

The art of hand-writing is still aliving and thriving. And—as with any art form—the more varied the palette of instruments, the more profound the composition. Tug on Stübby and let the coda of your masterpiece gush forth!

What is the gamut of colors and finishes?

Stübby's base material is stainless steel and is finished with a PVD coating. Visit the online store to see what colors are available.

Can Stübby be refilled?
