The Burwell

Sunset surfer

This pen is now my favorite pen in my collection. The weight and the flow are balanced just like the compound curves I look for in the foil of the surfboards shaped by godfathers before us. The materials mirror the maximal longevity while leaving room for infinite growth within. If only I can achieve what this pen is. Thank you James, Lane

Heavy in the hand

Make no mistake this is a stainless steel pen, and it is heavy in the hand. I do a fair amount of writing and it's a bit much for continuous writing but good for some quick scribbles. Good click action, love that it has my name on it, looks cool and is built sturdy.

New to the pen game

This year I started getting into pens, well a few years ago before I even had a EDC I became a fan of the zebra 301, for its utilitarian style, quality and value. Then I picked up a Parker Jotter and swapped the ink carriage for a gel and it became my favorite for its “click” and writing experience. Then after Christmas I came across the James sale and stumbled across the Burwell. Don’t recall the sale price, but it was to good to pass up. I went rose gold, because it matched a watch I owned, but too my surprise when I opened the box it was almost bronze looking and I enjoy the color. The weight of the pen is premium. The build quality is nice, the “click” is great, solid feeling, damp, but still pops. Clip is tight, fits well in a pocket and securely. James branded ballpoint pen cartridge is ok. I will swap it out for a gel cartridge once it runs out of ink and it will be even better I think. I carried for two week in my pocket, but it has been living on my desk for daily writing. Loving the writing experience of this pen. Branding is subtle, showed a few friends and it is instant eye catcher. Don't think i could justify full price for this pen. But picking it up on sale…... ohhh Hell yeah!!!
