penholders

Writing instrument receptacles

Penholders are devices designed to hold a pen or pens.

The term covers everything from simple desk accessories that keep pens upright and accessible to the handles of dip pens that accept interchangeable nibs.

In table tennis, the penhold grip has the player grasping the paddle handle as one would hold a pen for writing.
