Mission
The mission of this database is to find the best pen available for under $10. This could be a full stock pen stock at Staples, the coolest new pen from Japan, or a combination of parts of varying inexpensive models. The key attributes are: availability, affordability, reliability, and overall quality.
Best Everyday Carry Pen
Looking for the best EDC pen? That's not exactly our area of expertise so check out Budget-EDC.com. Penbase focused on the best pens under $10, not rugged EDC-type pens. Plus, we'd never carry the same pen every day! That's way too much pressure and we have way too many pens for that!
