Esterbrook Camden Rollerball Pen Silver
Esterbrook is one of the greatest names in American pen history. Founded in 1858, by their peak they were making 216 million pens a year. Unfortunately, as the market changed, Esterbrook went out of business in 1971. Now they're back, though, with the name brought back and the designs reinvented by Kenro Industries, who have plenty of experience of bringing back or continuing famous pen brands.
The Camden is named after the town where Esterbrook started. It has classically simple styling, but with a beautiful brushed anodised (or anodized, perhaps, since they're American) aluminium (no, they're not having that one) finish. It's a nice mix of classic and modern, and while the metal body gives it a solid feel, it's still quite lightweight.
There's a bit of spring to push against as you re-cap the pen, as the insert that seals around the nib unit pushes gently back, so it makes a good seal - this helps prevent the ink drying out if you don't use it for a while.
150mm long capped, 130mm uncapped, 171mm posted - though it's a little risky to use posted, as the same spring mechanism that helps form a good seal when capped tends to try to throw the cap off! 15mm wide, 9.5mm at grip, weighs 32g.
Supplied in a nice cloth gift box and liquid ink refill.
