    B&B's Second Limited Edition Fountain Pen
    The 2012 LE By The Edison Pen Company
    Just in time for Fathers Day!


    The B&B team is very pleased to announce the second Limited Edition Fountain Pen. We are delighted to be working again with renowned custom pen maker Brian Gray, proprietor of theEdison Pen Company. Brian has graciously offered us the opportunity to do a group buy again on one of his Signature Series Pens. These pens previously have only been offered as “one offs’’. The Badger and Blade Limited Edition Fountain Pen will be based on the Herald Grande. The HG is a sleek and modern classic that harkens back to the Sheaffer’s of the 40's and 50's. The pen will be constructed of premium black and blue swirl ebonite, a Rhodium plated clip and Rhodium plated steel nib.




    • Body Material: black/blue swirl premium German made ebonite
    • Clip Material: Rhodium plated
    • Nib Material: polished Steel
    • Nib Size: #6 nib, in Xfine, (.3mm), fine (0.5mm), medium (0.635mm), or broad (0.8mm) Tip size is approximate.
    • Cap Type: Screw-type, postable on body
    • Filling Mechanism: Cartridge/converter (converter included), or convertible to an eyedropper.
    • Weight w/ Cap 26g
    • Weight w/o Cap 15g
    • Cap Diameter .675"
    • Body Diameter .575"
    • Length Capped 6 1/2"
    • Length Uncapped 5 3/8"
    • ​Additional Nibs are available and easily swapped out, please contact Brian Gray directly for more info.




    Cost
    The price of this pen is something that will certainly be appealing. Since Brian is doing this from all the same materials, the same design, with no customizations, he can give us a very good price. Due to the production setting of this pen's construction, it is easier for Brian to make numerous pens of the same style and material than it is to make a couple pens that are totally custom. $175.00 USD includes shipping CONUS.

    This group buy is open to all members; international shipping will be at additional cost. Please contact me for specifics to your location.

    Shipping and timing. We expect the pens to ship by 06/01/2012



    How to order >



    Send a PM to Jim, (including your PayPal e-mail address, first and last name) and you will receive a Paypal invoice.
    Please note in your PM which sized nib you would like. The default size nib, if none is mentioned, will be a medium.

    The group buy will run for about two weeks. After the ordering period, this pen will no longer be available. All pens will be laser engraved with our badger head, serialized with xx of xx, Badger and Blade Limited Edition 2012.

    Hey folks...haven't been here all that long but long enough to see a lot of people talk about how difficult MWF can be to lather; ESPECIALLY if you have a hard water problem. Having been on Well water most my life, hard water was something you learned to adapt to. I've used the fat for a good...

    Supermax Stainless

    Thread Starter: Oscroft

    Does anyone use the Vidyut Supermax Stainless blades? I've tried a couple recently, and they're really pretty good. They're not as smooth as my favourite blades, like Med Preps, IS, etc, and they don't leave me feeling quite as comfortable - but they seem pretty sharp and have given me very...

    Cicadas are coming

    Thread Starter: p.m.a.

    Here in the mid-Atlantic region, we're likely to encounter a substantial emergence of this year's brood. Has anyone eaten them before and can share their experience, as well as any cooking suggestions? I searched the forum for "cicada" and came up empty. I remember the last time we had a large...

    I don't mean to try and have any final say on this stone here, or any other stone for that matter. All I'm doing here is relating what I experienced. I was interested in the Zulu Grey when I first heard of them last year. The abrasive in Frictionite 00 hones came from Africa, and I...

    Just ordered 10 of these off the bay. Not sure what to expect, but I really like trying the less talked about blades on these boards.

    Good morning gents. How long do the Ogalla scents last? Most AS's dont work for me because after an hour or so they fade. I like the sounds of some of the Ogalla combos... BR and their Sage and Sandalwoods particularly. I also read that somewhere sells an Ogalla sample pack? does anyone...
