Graf von Faber Castell Tamitio - Scottsdale Pen and Knife

The Faber-Castell Tamitio series falls in between the price ranges of the Ambition and Graf von Faber-Castell series of writing instruments - affordable luxury.

However, even though the Tamitio (formerly known as Initio) is the entry level into the Graf series, it still offers excellent quality and value along with a limited lifetime guarantee. The fluted barrels are appealing to both the eye and the hand. Currently stocked in black or rose.

Spyderco Delica4 Flat Ground Knives at Scottsdale Pen and Knife

Spyderco Delica4 FRN...in 1990 Spyderco shook things up by introducing two knives, the Delica and Endura. First of their kind on the market, both folders opened up the knife market to lightweight performance, one-hand open pocketknives that just about everyone could afford. They settled as Spyderco's top two bestsellers and their improvement hasn't slowed since.


The 4.25" fiberglass reinforced nylon handles come molded with Bi-Directional Texturing for preferred traction and improved ergonomics. Inside the handle dual skeletonized stainless steel liners make the knife stronger without adding weight and make an anchor for all external and internal components to attach through adding sturdiness and rigidity.

The 2.875" satin finish VG-10 blade is flat saber-ground with a stronger tip and larger 13mm opening hole. Added to the blade's spine is slip resistant jimping. Phosphor bronze washers smooth out the open/close action and the clip is upgraded to a four-way tip-up, tip-down, left- or right-handed clip. Only 2.5 ounces.

Parker Duofold Lapis at Scottsdale Pen and Knife

In 1921, the Duofold is introduced. It becomes a resounding success, even used by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to write the Sherlock Holmes series. In just four years sales quadruple. In the mid-20s Parker introduces Duofolds in a new, durable plastic called Permanite, replacing the traditional and brittle vulcanized rubber. To demonstrate its’ toughness, Parker drops pens over the Grand Canyon and from airplanes!

In 1941, the innovative Parker 51 comes to life. Promoted as “a pen from a different planet” it lives up to that promotion and immediately attains unworldly success. At the close of WWII, Eisenhower’s 51 signs the Armistice pact for the European Front while in the Pacific Theater, MacArthur’s 20-year old Duofold is used to sign the document officially ending the war.

In 1993, George Bush and Boris Yeltsin used personalized Parker Duofold World Memorial Rollerballs to sign the historic START II Treaty to eliminate nuclear weapons. That same year, at his inauguration, Bill Clinton is presented a Parker Duofold Marbled Green Rollerball to reflect his interest in environmental issues.

Just introduced this fall, the Parker Duofold Lapis with gold-plated trim is a stunning continuation of this historic model.
