It was just an old pen in my pen bucket at work. Nothing special. But that clip makes a huge difference!
Have you tried rolling it on a flat surface? If so you'll notice that the Apple logo will always end up upright. Just a nice weird little touch that Apple put in there. LOL
Interesting! I didn't know that.
[doublepost=1460856116][/doublepost]Here's a few more photos of the pen clip. It fits perfectly and can be slid up and down along the pencil to fit pretty much any pocket or bag.

I tried my pen drawer and not a one that had, I could cannibalize. I did find one I could steal the rubber grip from and that was an improvement.
Maybe check out a place like Staples or something. It would be worth even buying a pen that has this type of clip just so you can use it on the Pencil.
I couldn't stop laughing when I saw this post. Thanks for making me laugh!
This is absolute genius! I ordered the cute foods multipack.. I can give the rest to my daughter and keep the "Apple" pencil case. Haha!I use this, google "Smencils"
Maybe the pencil will soak up some of the Apple scent too. XD

I'm not sure if you already figured this out or not but I know that a number of iPad Pro users (myself included) used the clips from Pentel Sharp mechanical pencils. i can verify that clips from either the 0.5mm black or 0.7mm blue versions work great.

Thanks, I just found an old Pentel 0.5mm pencil and the clip worked perfectly.

These Fisher clips fit, but they slide too easily. If anyone has a way to keep them in place short of squeezing the clip a little more shut, I'd like to know what they did.

While I can't speak directly about the Fisher clips, the clip from my Pentel pencil fit fairly well, but wasn't quite as tight as I wanted it. So I just took come pliers and applied some gentle pressure. Im sure it would work fine with the Fisher clips.

Too bad I can't seem to find a 9.7 model.I now keep it in the iPad Pro+Pencil Moko faux leather case.... Amazing!
That looks almost exactly identical to the SNUGG case I had for my 13" retina MBP. Very slick.I now keep it in the iPad Pro+Pencil Moko faux leather case.... Amazing!
Is that an Ipad sleeve?, if so can you please post the info
Update: nevermind, found it

Can you post a link to that case or alternatively the exact model description?

Exactly! I too have a Snugg but for the retina MacBook, very similar to this one! Except for the pencil holder of course
Not an iPad sleeve (larger dimensions) but the perfect size for the 12.9 plus files etc. Comes in green, orange, brown and black (dark gray).Is that an Ipad sleeve?, if so can you please post the info
