Read MoreThis 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 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.
---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.
---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.
---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.
---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.
I put a Mont Blanc rollerball in mine along with corded headphones and two pencils. They all get along quite nice. I never liked my pen just sitting in my briefcase so this adds a nice buffer. I have my initials on it and it'd be nice if we could have more letters...maybe just for a first name is all.

I don't know about you, but I like to keep my stuff organized. Functionality is job 1, but style is 1.b. This pen case does both. I was tired of pens flopping around my flight bag - I looked at different ways to keep it all organized, then bought my first case. I loved it so much, I bought a second 10 days later to store my Apple Pencil and charger, as well. It's the best setup I've had (until SBL comes out with whatever they come out with next). The bear trap closure meets the function/style requirement to a tee. I've got Tobacco and DCB now (my go-tos)... they both look great, but the "give" on the DCB is unreal. Beautiful, with tons of character.

This is the perfect thing to carry pens and such. Fits my Ipencil and a highlighter as well. Closure is great and secure and has superior design!!

My job keeps me mobile. At a moment’s notice, I may be working from any one of five facilities, my office, my home, or my car. I bought “The Tank” backpack to haul my things around, but wanted something to keep pens close by and easily accessible as I’m frequently asked to sign things. Enter the bear trap leather pen case. It is the perfect size to hold three pens, a mechanical pencil, and pencil eraser. The quality and craftsmanship of the product is exactly what I’ve come to expect from Saddleback. The leather is beautiful, the stitching is perfect and the closure is firm and tight (and yes, it smells wonderful too). The best part for me is the fact that is easily and securely stored behind the side pouches on my backpack, making it readily accessible without having to open a pouch to retrieve it. I have been nothing with pleased with this product and highly recommend it.
