It would appear they're getting something very small. That's pretty cool.

 

Yes...something very small when closed...but that converts to something pretty large when posted...FOR ME!:happyberet: :bunny01:

Thanks, all. I'm pretty excited for this curvy-cutie pen.

So, what's the trick to waiting for a pen to arrive?

-Pace the floor?

-See a hypnotist? (Nah...he'll just make me think I'm a chicken and how could I write if I had wings?)

-Hold self-debates regarding what ink to load the incoming pen with? (I think I'm going to try a 2:1 mix of PR SSB and Noodlers LegalLapis.)

-Meditate? (Nah...to me, the sound of one hand clapping is the same as the sound of ink drying. So, I'd just start -thinking about the incoming pen.)

-Take a nap? (Nah, I'd just have a day dream about the pen.)

:gaah:

Enjoy the wait, Lloyd. Cos once the pen arrives, that part's over. :-(

 

 

Hee.

Is it a cartridge pen only, or an ED pen also?

 

Do you have length measurements for it? nm I see you have those on the blog page for the pen.

-Pace? You'll wear the floor out

-Hypnotist? You can write in chicken scratch

-Hold self-debates? You could end up re-electing yourself!

-Meditate? Your right you'll just meditate about how great the pen will be

-Take a nap? You can sleep?

      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..

      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
