I just have to say that the steel (F) nib I received yesterday from Richard Binder...is the cat's pajamas! I am so impressed! Writes Right is right. Just had to say I am sooooo impressed! Binderized is more than just a catchy phrase. Silky smooth...

Could be in my excitement over this nib...but you should see this nib write with the Diamine China Blue in the last Ink Drop (which BTW was absolutely grand)! This nib and China Blue! Happiness! :)

It's always great when you find a good combination. Have fun. You should get to a show so you can watch him adjust the nib.

Richard indeed makes nibs write first time everytime. Smooooth. However, I find them just a tad to wet, but not enough to stop using them. Uncle Red is right that if you get a chance to watch him work you should. He is one of the true masters and a nice guy to boot.

      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

      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
