Two Nib Eastman From Newton Pens


Newton Pens

Recommended Posts

Since I’m going to DC this weekend I thought I’d get a couple of different things put together to bring with me. The USA pens of course, and then something that people have asked me about pretty much since I started making pens 2 1/2 years ago: a two nib pen!

There have been lots of two nib pens made. Some with both nibs at one end, some with a nib on either end; that’s where mine will come in.

Here’s an Eastman I made up tonight.

I think these would look best made from the Eastman, Majestic, or Townsend, and will be $100 extra.

Update: As I was typing this I was contacted about this pen – it’s already sold! Thanks! :) I’ll still have it at DC to show off.

Thanks!

Like the look of that very much. Seems that the ink can be different either end - yes?

Sincerely, beak.

These two nib pens got such good reception a the DC show. The blue one I made up sold early Friday morning and I could have sold the orange/gray one several times over if it hadn't already been sold before the show. :) I left DC so incredibly pleased. I can't wait to make more of these things.

      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
