Schon DSGN Pocket Six Review

[@austin6982]

For the record, I thought that magic trick was awesome!

[@mikes10663]

My only regret in your getting this review out so quickly is that it will probably increase the competition to buy one on the web site when it launches 😄 I was hoping that Ian would have the Pocket 6 at the Commonwealth Pen Show next month; unfortunately he won't be there. We were spoiled while he was living in Boston he set up at the Commonwealth almost every year. Several years ago I heard from another pen maker at the show that Ian was working on ideas for a fountain pen, so I have been checking in with Ian ever since. I sure hope I can purchase one on Tuesday.

[@FigbootonPens]

Good luck...hope you get one.

[@michaelsimon4034]

Figboot on Pens I did! Was on the site promptly at 7:00.

[@FigbootonPens]

@@michaelsimon4034 Cool...hope you enjoy your new toy.

[@pfridell8424]

Wow! Great trick David! Do it again! Great little pen too. I'll check out his site on the 20th.

[@drd8251]

That magic trick was baffling, to say the least. When I snail-mail you again, I'll tell you how to do my favorite card trick. I don't own a pocket pen. I've been tempted to buy a Kaweco brass pocket pen to enjoy the patina but I've never pulled the trigger. The problem I see with owning a pocket pen is all my fault. I write in spurts; my thoughts don't often flow freely. So I write a little and then I cap the pen until my next thoughts come to me. Pocket pens, unposted, seem too short. That means when I write, I'd uncap the pen, post it, and then unpost it and cap it until my next thought bubbled up. That would likely derail my feeble thought processes. But I can appreciate your support of an American penmaker. Kudos, David.

[@dmullins311]

The pen and review was really good and shows the unique pen to it's best. But the magic trick....How is that possible ?? 🤔🤔🤣🤣

[@jacobus57]

Great pen! I could even justify cartridges for this one--it's what syringes are for! And I say MORE magic :)

[@chrislj2890]

Yer freakin' me out with that Rubik's Cube stunt. I keep watching it and am thoroughly baffled. That is probably the best design for a pocket pen I have ever seen, and posted with that #6 nib is one heck of a transformation. Blast you man, now I want one!

[@mickmckigney4177]

Lovely pen and interesting design, designer and manufacturer. Very coverable... Happy writing methinks and wishes.

[@mickmckigney4177]

Sorry I meant covetable.

[@BPick]

You should add the magic tricks to the end of your videos. Loved this one.

[@FigbootonPens]

The problem is that a lot of things like card tricks don't translate well to my video format. No one there with me to pick a card. We'll see, though...

[@apolvc]

What a great pen, and to see it coming from a great craftsman makes it even better! This is on my list, for sure. Thanks for sharing, David!

[@AnzanHoshinRoshi]

Thank you, David. I wind up never using pocket pens (except the Space Pen) but this is very nice. (David, I would enjoy some close-up magic videos on their own.)

[@superplannergirl]

How do you like it a few months later? Holding up to wear, etc...?

[@bangbang51211]

It's a beautiful little pen but I wonder how long that finish will last in a pocket.

[@NobodyHere]

Would you be able to confirm which colourway this one is? So lovely!

[@1Bibliotech]

I too am not typically a pocket pen fan, but ended up with the solid magenta model with the brass section, and I love it!

[@redbarnhomestead7384]

I used teaching “magic” card tricks in therapy in work with kids to work on confidence and focus. It was a helpful tool. Also, cool pen:).

[@austin6982]

The Pocket 6 I purchased at DC is one of my favorite pens. It is the perfect pocket pen and the stock Bock nib writes wonderfully.

[@cgmartin9789]

Great video, ended up picking one up. It would be cool if you made a list video of small batch pen makers

[@PlenusPotent]

Beautiful pen 🖊️, also nice magic trick

[@ss45247]

Another great discovery. Enjoyed the time magic trick too!

[@Guitarsoulmadness]

Beautiful pen. Very catchy to the eye. As a magic cube enthusiast myself, I think I know how do you "turn" that cube into solved state. Very cool trick.

[@brendanreilly2580]

Hi David! I'm wondering how much heavier you would say the brass section makes this pen. I'm thinking of buying one, but do prefer my pens to be a little heavier, so I was curious whether this section adds substantial heft to the pen, which would be nice for me. Thanks!

[@FigbootonPens]

The brass does help add some weight. I don't find it to be overly light.

[@Wolverine3660]

A wonderful pen, think I will get one soon. Thanks for the review, Dave.

[@mrkringlan]

Lovely design! And cool with a big nib on a small pen.

[@thelifeandtimesofjames4273]

Nice looking pen. And nice trick also.

[@Julian-bq9qv]

Great review and a sweet little pen!!!! And the trick- you think you could put my checkbook in that magic bag and make it turn out better???? I certainly encourage you to keep up your legerdemain as a second hobby- I have never met a sad magician!

[@dragorsi]

You need to close your eyes and pick one like that 😅 they look cool! Plus points for the magic trick!

[@sorucha8249]

Lamy 2000 100 years of Bauhaus is coming! Let's hope it'll be a more daring design than the 50th anniversary of the 2000

[@PatrisDev]

Sadly, I believe it's just a bit blue, similar to the default makrolon model.

[@dominictolentino2744]

Reminds me of moonman wancai, but in metal... Love the purple color of the pen and ink...

[@nicks931]

I thought that exact same thing when he showed it the other day. Meh... Nice looking though.

[@BlueMel_MH]

It's cool to occasionally end a review w/ a bit of magic! I've spotted 2 different color options (sold out), that I'll keep my eye on for a future restock.

[@unjuanequis6336]

Nice pocket pen, it looks like a PenBBS 471 but made of aluminum, and with cool colors, plus magic!

[@Chuculainn9]

Thanks, David. I enjoy your videos. I love magic, show us some card tricks.

[@MrAndrew1953]

Do you have the website address for schon dsgn pocket pens?

[@michellestephenson1680]

I’m certainly interested. Those are pretty and look like quality too!

[@FrauStaenki]

Your editing skills are really ... magical ...

[@FigbootonPens]

No edits...100% what you see. I've done that trick a few times in front of large groups of people.

[@nammaestudy1149]

Nice little Pocket pen, with many vivid colour options. Magic👏🏽👏🏽.

[@ajmulnix2639]

Ordered a unicorn with a brass grip section this morning. Thank you for the review!

[@FigbootonPens]

Nice...have fun with your new pen. I think you'll enjoy it.

[@SuperPhotoDave]

Nice pen. Nice review. Nice editing... I mean nice trick. Keep them coming. Reviews and tricks that is.

[@FigbootonPens]

No editing...100% real trick. :-)

[@SuperPhotoDave]

@@FigbootonPens I believe you. I was trying to be funny. My son also does some amazing tricks too right before my eyes that I still can't believe. Of course he won't tell me how they're done. Magician's code or something.

[@FigbootonPens]

:-)

[@adventuredenali]

Enjoyed your review... and your magic trick!!!

[@nikthegreek4223]

Have you tested the kaco master?

[@frenchbullfrog]

Nice review, hope to buy a pocket 6 soon, also do close up magic, taught by J Birnman

[@drd8251]

Okay, I just bought a brass Schon Pocket Six pen. Never thought I'd buy a pocket pen. I looked at the Kaweco and a review by SBRE Brown and opted for the Schon. The American-made Schon was more expensive but Dr. Brown's review dissed the nib. Thanks, David, for turning your fans onto Schon.

[@raphael52]

A little pricy for a new brand. I was trying to buy the copper version. They're going for $272.

[@BlackPearl-bp]

Great pen and nip and cool design. By the way nice magic trick as well 🙈

[@13noman1]

I foresee an unexpected budget “hit” in the near future!

[@LUIGI50013]

Beautiful pen might pick one up soon I was expecting a card trick but solving a rubiks cube is fun to because I could never solve one

[@FigbootonPens]

I have lots of card tricks...but those are harder to translate over to a video like this.

[@dragonheart804]

Awesome little pen. I’d say a mini handy attention grabber pen. And the best part the magical trick nice!

[@dan-gy4vu]

Sis really snapped on this one tho

[@alexmood6407]

There is just something about pen shows that makes big nib and wild colours a recipe for success.

[@lez7767]

Yeahhhh well done David,,, there was a guy on America’s Got Talent I think it was that was doing this kind of magic with rubics cubes I think he went all the way to the finals... I was going to post the link to it as I know you’d like it but forgot, I think ? So to see you do it was exceptional, well done great. The little pen... super cool everything about it and If I wasn’t flat broke without a pot to p*** in I’d get one. I have no said pot because of having to pay for a major operation on my little jack russel who has a tumour, so pens and everything else will have to wait. This little pen is a really attractive design and the Bock number 6 nib was a real surprise. They’ll sell out tomorrow (19th now Uk). Thanks for the review and the magic... wonderful. Best wishes to all PenPeople. LeZc @@

[@Cocobird5]

Loved the trick! Pen is cool.

[@janepilecki8083]

I love the pen. But I LOVE the magic trick!!!

[@greyareaRK1]

Wow, quite the tricked out studio.

[@jeffreystone375]

Fun as always!!

[@kapirk2244]

Love the pen! Love the magic trick!!

[@davidlegrand2931]

I really like the nib and colors wow.

[@LovkynaPeral]

pretty colorful ❣

[@RaiderSix]

I could never solve a Rubik’s Cube back in the 80’s. I bought one a few years ago and still can’t. 😄

[@MarkoMarkolovic]

Like the magic trick and the pen

[@benallgeier5932]

this one looks really sick

[@FigbootonPens]

So unwell! nathanwpyle.threadless.com/designs/strange-planet-special-product-so-unwell/accessories/mug

[@gordonb9316]

Like the magic!

[@TomS_FoX]

"Great pen" and even greater magic!

[@idipbananasintocoffee]

Awesome trick! The pen is nice, but I'm not sold on it - there are good metal pocket pens for less money - and Delike for example takes converters. Still, nice looking pen, and an excellent video.

[@quietpls]

I’ve seen a ton of pens. Literally. This was unique. I specially with that size 6 nib. With this review they will sell out pretty quick.

[@solar7927]

They did

[@TheRealSk8rcruz]

They have restocked. Just ordered one.

[@13noman1]

P.s. enjoyed the magic trick😊

[@sorucha8249]

Looks like a thick liliput Would get it if it wasn't so expensive

[@nicmert]

More magic!

[@TheMagicalSock]

David, I didn’t know you enjoyed magic. I am a card magician of 20 years. If you ever want to talk magic, shoot me a message!

[@FigbootonPens]

Lately, I've been working on perfecting a mercury fold. Still not where it needs to be to bust it out in public.

[@TheMagicalSock]

Figboot on Pens if you’d ever like any tips on anything at all, or to just talk about anything card magic, I’m always happy to! P.S. that mercury card fold is a great utility to learn - you can use it for all sorts of stuff as well. The ‘Hulk Smash’ of sleights.

[@VampireKa1n]

You lost me at cartridge-only, unfortunately.

[@allysonmcarthur4620]

I loved your magic trick! 🪄You slayed this review! ❤️
