Mclaren Pencil In Stainless Steel

[brahe]

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if someone could help me identify this pencil I bought. I don't have a box nor documentation, nothing. I know it is very heavy and is made of stainless steel. I feels and looks very nice. It says McLaren but apart from that, I have no clue.

I have attached some photos.
Your help is highly appreciated.

 

Thx

Bram

It is McLaren the car maker, the logo on the clip identifies it. In line with their cars it should be very good quality. So all you need now is to save for the car to go with it!

Hi Barriep,
The saving part for the car: this might take a while.....

These were sold about 10 years ago, and were fairly pricy. I know that Airline international was selling them at one time. They might be able to give you more information.

Hi Doug,

Thanks for the info. I have e-mailed them and asked for info.

If you have more info on this pencil like who is the producer, prices then and now, availability etc, I'd love to hear it all.

Again, thank you!

The info Airline International could give me:

- it was produced by McLaren over 10 years ago.

- this type also had a Roller ball model.

- the pencil is made of titanium

Bram,

 

These were actually made by a company called TML based out of Norwich under an exclusive license from McLaren International Ltd. It was part of a series that they did in titanium and carbon fiber. They made pencils, rollerballs, and fountain pens. The fountain pens were unique because of a wild looking plunger system. Here are some of the other examples.

That is a great collection. I wanted one badly but didn't get one at the time due to the cost and possible weight of the pens. I prefer lighter pens.
