Almost gone!

 

Now adding Parker Quink Blue from writing practice as I let my left hand rest on the top of the page and use that hand to move the page.

De Atramentis Tchaikowski/Silver Grey.

I was using it for my morning journal in my Noodler's Flex Piston Creaper and was trying to chase the cat off the bed because she was making hacking noises. Unfortunately, I was using my right hand to get here attention. With the cap off. And of course we're talking "relatively wet ink in a pretty wet pen..."

AFAIK, there are no grey stains on the blankets or comforter; but there *was* a fairly substantial amount (on the middle finger of my right hand -- and it did *not* come off in the shower....

J. Herbin Lie de Thé. I have one pen filled with this ink, but it had been lying around unused for a little while. It didn't write as easily as I wanted and remembered, so I just turned the piston knob to saturate the feed, just a bit, bit more... oops!

My fingers (and hands!) are Organics Studio Maganate. Trying to conquer a particularly stubborn Noodlers Konrad. I accidentally opened the back of the pen and hand ink everywhere before I realized what happened!

Right now my left hand fingers are very Kon-Peki. Ooops.

So many hobbies, so little time....

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
