Stationery Review 136 - EXPERTS Agree This TRC Logo Brass Clip is a Game Changer

Hi Friends,

I bought this Traveler's Company TRC Logo Brass Clip from Amazon.com for USD 19 including the taxes. Check this out as I saw both the designs at the Maido SF store in Japan Town, San Francisco, California. It was around USD 25 + taxes there so I thought of not buying the same from there.

I am a fan of all things leather and brass/copper/silver/gold or any other precious metal. These metals make things durable and they last for a long time. My brother had the TRC Brass Ruler which he wanted to give to me but I didn't take it as I have many other metal rulers available with me. The quality of the ruler was amazingly great too so it led me to get one of the metal clips as well.

My first experience with brass was the Kaweco Brass Sports Fountain Pen that my brother really liked and I handed the same to him as it was in his favourite medium-sized nib as well though the pen has a Fine nib but due to the weight or a regular, they writes a little bit bolder than the Japanese nibs.

Coming back to this TRC Logo brass clip it keeps the journal page down due to its weight supporting the same. You can also use the same as a bookmark and also to keep your book open while your hands are not free. I really like that in case you want to take notes in your diary and it helps to keep the book open.

Due to its square design, it's really a good one as it can go deep inside the journal/book and also has a hole in the back so that it can be attached to the journal or book covers so that you don't leave it behind. The clip doesn't have any design on the back which is a missed opportunity as it would be great to write something like MADE IN JAPAN or something of that sort.
