Sonata = Diamine Music Collection Beethoven

 

Okay, new (well, sort of) word (more like words/concept): Hall of Fame (in honor of the new inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, who were announced this morning. And also sort of keeping in the music theme....

If the OP claimed any 'rules keeping' (which he doesn't) then I still think this would count :) Brilliant

Aurora Black. Probably the ink I've written the most with, which makes it my most talkative ink.

Inadequate: Caran d'Ache Saffron - I have an inadequate supply of this ink.

 

New word: Sleepy

 

 

Organics Studio / Frank L Baum / Emerald City Green because our heroes succumb to slumber outside the gates.

 

New word: Dreamy

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

J. Herbin Gris Nuage, definitely. (:

 

One that is perhaps a strange one: Medieval.

 

 

Hey, welcome aboard!

 

Medieval - J Herbin Ann ink 1640 - not because it is that old but because it has such a strange sheen that I could see it being used in the old books. Although perhaps Diamine Registrar's ink would be a better choice.

 

New Word: Regency

Regency: PR Ebony Purple. To me this ink is reminiscent of the rich hues and regal architecture that denotes the Regency period.

J Herbin Eclat de Saphir... IIRC sbrebrown does something involved in that field, and I found his sampling of that ink in one of his wet B nibbed pens to be the most impressive showing of it.

Childlike - Visconti Turquoise, because you can't take it seriously, it's simply a bit of fun.

      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
