Bullet Pencils

Cagey · #1 (**permalink**) Tue Oct 18, 2005, 07:44am

By some chance, does anyone know who manufactures the bullet pencils? I know who sells them, but can't seem to find out who produces them and of course, the sellers won't tell.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I think he wants the company that actually makes them, not the vendors like the sports suppliers who resell them. My guess is you are going to have to look into China to find them. I know you can buy a lot of "promtional items" like pens, pencils etc from companies in China. They make them, imprint your company logo, and then ship to you.

Maybe you could contact one of the vendors and tell them your company wants to buy them and put their logo on so they can hand out to clients and customers?

I tried contacting a couple of resellers but all they will do is give me a quote. "For business reasons" they will not disclose the name of the manufacturer. There is one company in the US that makes these and that is the one that I am trying to contact. Many thanks to everyone for their input.

Shepenco is the manufacturer. Do a google search and you'll find them.

That is a possibility. I know you guys are hosting it so make sure you contact me for some kind of sponsorship. I am sure something can be worked out.

I didn't see any clip on the side of these. I like the clip otherwise I would probably lose them all the time.

There are two models. One with and one without a clip. The one with a clip is a little different now as I understand last year the machine that put the clips on broke and they had to do something different.
