New from Franklin-Christoph, the M-4 Magnet Necklace Pen pen features an attractive clasped silk cord. The ballpoint pen uses a Parker-style Piper Ultra-Glide 1000 refill, and the cap attaches to the barrel with a magnet feature. The pen is available in black or yellow with rhodium trim ($47.20) or engraved sterling silver with a 2mm Swarovski "sapphire" ($77.20). Each pen has a lifetime warranty and comes in an attractive gift box. These prices are for a limited time only. I saw the new pens for the first time about a month ago, and they are well balanced and well constructed. They are also a perfect size for quick retrieval for note taking at about 4.25 inches in length. The M-4 Magnet Necklace Pen may be purchased directly from Franklin-Christoph.
