Bear Trap Leather Pen Case

Versatile and stylish

This Bear Trap Pen Case is just plain cool. It's part of what keeps my bags organized and things in place. The spring steel closure is satisfying to open and close. The leather is full grain tumbled leather, which is the toughest and most resistent grade of leather there is. Use it as a pen case or for a pair of readers or thin profiled sunglasses. I suppose it could be used for a long coin purse if that's how you choose to use it. This is a simple little gift that everyone seems to really love.

Full Grain Leather Pen Case

Full Grain Leather is the secret to making leather goods that last. I shouldn't say secret, because it is not a secret to manufacturers. It is just a secret to most uneducated consumers. But, now that you know, it is no longer a secret.

So, What is Full Grain Leather?

In short, it is the highest quality leather available and is made from the full grain of the hide. This makes it the strongest, most beautiful, and most durable leather. Unfortunately, it is also the most expensive, so makers of cheap leather cases don't want you to be educated. All that is removed in full grain is the hair of the cow. The natural markings (brands, scars, bug bites, etc.) are all still in the hide and are cut away to make the highest quality leather pen case.

Top Grain Leather

A top grain leather bag is the second highest quality of leather and is made from the top layer of the hide that has had the finest part shaved off, the most rugged outer layer. This is done, so the manufacturer doesn't have to throw out any of the leather. Of course, it makes them a little more profit, but we are raising the bar on quality.

Genuine Leather

You get this from the department store on a black Friday sale. Retailers should remove the term genuine leather from everything, but they won't, so I will educate you. It just means leather of some type is in the item. It could be that awful bonded leather, just leather pieces and leather dust glued together to make PVC or PU leather. It is like the difference between particle board and solid wood, but worse. It is not even in the same ballpark as full grain or top grain leather. I hope this has helped educate you a little better about full-grain leather and cheap alternatives like PU and PVC leather. As always, if you have any leather questions, please feel free to contact us. We would be happy to talk with you more about leather.

These Leather Pen Cases Know How to Keep their Mouth Shut

Like a well-educated husband's mouth, these pen cases stay shut until they are squeezed. There are custom spring steel pieces that have a memory to remain in the closed position until you squeeze it. It is actually enjoyable to squeeze, and you can do it quietly or let it pop shut by letting it loose faster.

Fantastic EDC pouch

Bombproof quality and bomber style. I carry a few “nice-to-haves” in the pen case: Pen, mini utility knife, pry tool, and Knipex micro pliers. Fits unobtrusively in the front pocket of most pants, and helps me rattle less.
