Custom stick pens are the workhorse giveaway pen, and this category lists 20 styles, from the classic BIC® Round Stic® to wooden drum stick and hockey stick novelty pens.
Classic stick pen styles
A stick pen has no click and no twist. The cap comes off, the barrel is one piece, and that simplicity is why it runs well in large quantities. The BIC® Round Stic® Pen is listed in PP plastic at 5.9063" W x 1.1563" H x 1.1563" D, and the Classic Collection Tri-Stic® Pen is a three sided barrel at 5.10938" long and 0.5" in diameter, so it will not roll off a desk. Frosted, translucent, clear, and colored cap versions are listed, along with a soft touch click barrel for buyers who want a click action in the same slim shape.
Novelty and shaped stick pens
Shaped pens sit in the same family. The Personalized Wooden Drum Stick Pen is 9" x .375" and the Promotional Plastic Hockey Stick Pen is 7.25" x .375", both longer than a standard barrel so the shape reads from across a room. A hockey stick pencil at 8.75" long and a wooden stick pen at 6 3/8" long by 5/16" diameter round out the wood and sport styles. Schools, rinks, music programs, and youth fundraisers are the usual buyers for those.
Ink, material, and tags
Most barrels here are PP plastic. Twelve styles carry a black ink tag and six carry a blue ink tag, so confirm the ink color before the order goes in. Eight styles are tagged free setup and seven are tagged free shipping. Five carry a Prop 65 compliant tag, and eight are tagged rush available, which helps when an event date moves.
Ordering
Pick the barrel first, then the ink. A round barrel is the safe choice for a mailing or a counter cup, a three sided barrel stays put on a desk, and a shaped pen works when the pen itself is the message. Related pages include Ballpoint Pens and Twist Pens.
