HisNibs.com update -- Fabulous Four from POKY
March 11th, 2014

Greetings,

In this newsletter we're introducing another Chinese pen manufacturer --
POKY. Rather than create a separate page for each model as usual, I've
decided to introduce these as the Fabulous Four
http://www.hisnibs.com/poky.htm.

On the re-stocking front, the Pilot 78G
http://www.hisnibs.com/pilot_pens.htm black with 'B' (stub/italic) nib has
returned. The only color/nib combination that is still back-ordered is the
Cinnabar Red with the 'B' nib .

As this newsletter goes out to a mailing list of thousands of customers,
please understand if there's a delay in answering your email queries or
orders after one of these is sent. We will respond in order received and as
soon as possible!

Join us on our Facebook HisNibs.com fan page which can be reached directly
at https://www.facebook.com/HisNibs1. Come join us for what has become a
lively meeting place for news about pens, ink and handwriting.

POKY Fabulous Four

http://www.hisnibs.com/Poky4PenGroupPosted_small1.jpg

Although each is quite distinctive in design, there are enough similarities
in construction of these Poky models that I've decided to group them
together. Each of the Fabulous Four shares a black cap and barrel, golden
furniture in three cases, and quite similar sizes -- again in three of the
four pens -- and Poky displayed on the cap band.

There's a definite Parker-homage going on here as well.

I've named the models:

Golden Arrow
Duo61
Dragon Flowers, and
Great Wall

Just follow the link below to read more about them.

After a second re-stocking in about as many weeks, the only nib/color
combination that's still back-ordered is the Cinnabar Red with the 'B'
stub/italic nib.

      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
