ABSTRACT:
A writing instrument having a ergonomic configuration and methods for making the instrument are provided. The instrument is elongated having an equilateral triangular cross-section and having a uniform partial twist along the length thereof. The partial twist permits flat surface engagement for the index finger, middle finger and for the hand between the base of thumb and the base of the index finger of the user. The uniform twist in combination with the equilateral cross-sectional shape also permits tight packing in bulk, and the partial twist permits flat sided engagement with the resting surface (desk top). A method for making the instrument in the form of a rigid pencil is also provided.
