When this one came along in an online auction, I was surprised to see that I didn't have it.
So I swooped in. This is an Equipoised "clasp pencil", and for whatever reason a plain old black and pearl example had eluded me until this point. These frequently slip under the radar, because other than a faint imprint on the barrel, only the shape and the unique clip give its identity away . . .
NOTE: This article is now included in the print version of The Leadhead's Pencil Blog, available anywhere you buy books, or also from The Legendary Lead Company.
