James Brand has built quite an illustrious name for itself in the EDC space and its Benton Pen is the newest addition to its collection of high-quality EDC gear. Adopting the James Brand signature modern minimalist styling, the Benton Pen features a sleek 304 stainless steel body that gives the piece an excellent sense of heft, substance, balance, and durability. Laser-etched stippling at the end of the pen helps provide extra grip while also offering subtle flair to help the EDC item stand out from the pack.
The rear click mechanism featured on the pen is ideal for an EDC piece, as its satisfying action is quick to deploy compared to screw caps and there are no small parts to misplace. The click point of the Benton Pen also includes a lanyard attachment point to help in easy deployment and deep pocket carry.
