How does a fine pen come to have the name Michael's Fat Boy? In this case, it all started with calluses on Michael Hochstetler's fingers. In the early 1990s, to fight those calluses, Michael began designing pens that were easier and more comfortable to grip than those commonly available at the time. As a result, he earned two U.S. Patents: ergonomic writing instruments #5,228,794 and ergonomic instruments #5,332,324. Now comes the aluminum Fat Boy pen with its extra wide barrel - hence "Fat" in the name - for gripping comfort. Crafted in the U.S.A. from aircraft quality billet aluminum for a comforting heft and solid feel, Fat Boys are assembled using the highest quality retractable mechanisms from Germany and use the Parker Pen Company's genuine Parker Gel refills. It all combines to deliver a strong clear line through the German stainless steel nibs (available in fine, medium and broad). This "Best Of" is in short, one very fine writing instrument - one you'll want to check out. But hurry. This is a limited edition, there will only be 500 of these extraordinary pens manufactured.

From independent research, we selected the Michael's Fatboy Comet as a 3LUXE "Best Of". To see our other Pen selections visit our Pen Overview.
