Leather Triple Pen Case Options?

[sanesangowdayya]

Hello all, I previously purchased some cheap faux leather case from China and, although it looked and felt fine, after a few weeks the bands for the pen ended up coming loose so I'd like to purchase a new case.

 

Preferably it would be a triple pen case, flap and rectangular box shaped (defined corners, think FC vs Aston pen case), under $50, and available in the US. I've looked at some mainstream brands like Franklin Chrisoph and Pelikan but I was wondering what other brands people have tried.

 

Some other brands I've looked at are nock - decent budget option, wancher (great but shipping from Japan), and aston (also nice but I prefer the uniform surface of FC).

I have a 2-pen case from FC that I like quite a bit. It is super sturdy and I like that it has internal "partitions" to keep the pens separate so they aren't bouncing around against each other. I wanted the 3-pen case but it was sold out in the Stock Room so I just went with the 2 and I'm glad I did.

 

I know you said you wanted one that was readily available in the US but if you have time to wait I also recommend Galen Leather. They make all of their leather items and they have 3, 6, 5, and 10 pen case options. I have a 5-pen case and am able to fit an A6 notebook on one side and a variety of pens on the other. It will hold pens as large as a Pelikan M1000 so rest assured that most pens would fit It is a zippered case, however. I will say that it is nice and sturdy workmanship and the overall experience, purchasing, packaging etc. was really enjoyable. You also have a ton of options available for leather color.

 

Just my $0.02 worth.

Wow those galen leather cases look nice and their options are quite overwhelming.

 

I'll have to think about that - maybe a larger 5 pen case with a notebook is what I'm looking for after all

I have a Royce leather single pen case I got from Amazon and I've been very happy with it. They make single, double and triple cases.

Got a triple pen case from Toys from the Attic last week at the Ohio Pen Show (and one of their 12-pen cases as a Christmas gift): http://www.tfta.us/fine-writing-ink-accessories

That is a beauty.

Went with the pelikan 3 pen case, but franklin christoph and pilot somes case were close contenders. I'm sure all will make great cases.

I'm quite happy with my Libelle leather zippered triple pen case. At times I've had up to six pens in it (only 3 were strapped in) without issue.
