ABSTRACT:
A writing instrument has an elongate body equipped with a pocket connector. The connector includes a leg secured to the body and a relatively ridged, elongate stem extending from the leg in generally parallel relationship with a face surface of the body to define a pocket receiving space therebetween. The stem has a remote spring engaging surface near an end of the stem remote from the leg. A pocket engaging leaf spring is disposed in the space and has ends in biased engagement with the remote spring surface and another spring surface near the leg. The spring is bowed such that a central portion of the spring is closer to the body face than the spring ends. The disclosed body is a scabbard which remains in a user's pocket when the writing implement is in use.
