That's really a lovely case. What a great find. I know I'm scared to carry pens yet having one handy still seems so essential. That case would be so lovely to see in your bag, too!

I recommend the space pen. It's leak proof, compact and lasts forever. They cost about $30. My first one lasted 10 years, and I never had a refill. Until it got stolen. The 2nd one is holding strong for 8 years now. Never a problem with leaving or anything. And It is barely longer than a credit card. You can grab one on amazon. They have so many colors now, but mine is chrome.

I was going to suggest this too, I've had one for 9 years now and still writes perfectly and has never leaked!:graucho: But still keep it in a cosmetic bag!

I have been looking up the color combinations that were made for this bleecker nubuck pencil case 64544 and I have found quite a few options but some may be foreign exclusives:

carrot/bark
tidal/grass
squash/bark
burnt red/tomato
navy/mahogany
sharkskin/natural (like mine!)

Coach UK still has some available but for the equivalent price of 65 GBP ($109 USD) that's crazy for such a small accessory IMO! But it makes me appreciate my sweet little find even more!

If you have a Coach Men's Outlet in your area be sure to stop by, sometimes you can get lucky and find nice items at a good price!

This is awesome! I have the Bleecker Pencil case in Green but I don't like it and have never used it. I don't carry a pen in my purse because I'm so worried about a leak and would like to start carrying one, this seems like it would be perfect.

Does the green one have a zipper? I love bleecker leather but the cases with zippers looked larger and heavier to me. I just wanted something slim and lightweight.

Here's another thing: I carry pens that have a (secure) cover, like these

They're just a few of mine. Pretty, but very inexpensive. I bought them from China on eBay.

Thank you, I used them both today. But now I have to switch to a patent leather bag. It's raining outside and it is supposed to keep raining for the next 3 days.
:rain:

So Rory will get a break but the pencil case will be transferred from bag-to-bag from now on!
