Stationery Review 418 - Endless Companion - Is This the Best Leather Pen Pouch I've Ever Used? (USD 60)

Hi Friends,

Endless Companion Pen Pouch in Black Leather (5 Pens) comes in multiple colours, in both leather and vegan leather. I really love leather products, and this one is special as it's from Endless Stationery from Chennai/Madras, which has made a name for itself in the international market. Endless products are great in quality and design. I have one of their inks as well, which I will showcase in the next few days.

This is one of the slimmest pen pouches that comes with a diary or notepad as well, which is fountain pen-ready or friendly. I really loved the soft-touch leather along with the pen loop, which is adjustable. My only prediction is that, with prolonged use, the soft part between the 5 pens will break  sooner than later.

Stationery Review 417 - Lamy Safari Harry Potter Edition Fountain Pens (ZAR 1200)

Hi Friends,

Lamy Safari Harry Potter Edition Fountain Pens are really unique, with each house representing one of the designs for the Lamy Safari Medium Nib fountain pen.

Stationery Review 417 - Lamy Safari Harry Potter Edition Fountain Pens (ZAR 1200)

I got this set from the marketplace for around ZAR 1200 only so it meant that each Lamy Safari pen costed me around ZAR 400 each which is little less than the original price during the FPD sale.

Hi Friends,

Montegrappa Ducale Black Fountain Pen (Medium Nib) is a great writing instrument. This is my first one ever, and thanks to Montegrappa for creating it. Check it out! We have paired it with Pilot Iroshizuku Black ink named Take-Sumi.

I have been using this fountain pen since the time I bought it from Facebook Marketplace and have totally loved the weight and design of this one. I think this is our first fountain pen from the Italian range.

Hi Friends, 

The Pentel Hamper for the Media Kit at Comic Con Africa 2026 was part of the goodies we received. They were selling this as a starter kit for around ZAR 100 as well. Check it out!

I really loved the packaging and the selection of a wide range of pens from the Pentel Japan group. This is really a great media kit they provided to all the people who helped Comic Con Africa expand to the country via blog posts and content creation.
