Fine. I'll steal some puffery from the amazon listing:

 

 

Over forty years after it happened, the 1960s remain the most consequential and controversial decade of the 20th century. Swinging London was the catch term applied to the fashion and cultural scene that flourished in London. It was a youth orientated phenomenon that emphasised the new and modern.

Carnaby Street is synonymous with sweeping changes of fashion, that still appear today, including psychedelic colours such as yellow, orange, lilac, pink, blue and green.

The Platignum 'Carnaby Street' No.9 Ball Point range, by Snopake Brands, recaptures the freedom of expression of the era. A freedom to express yourself in writing and making a bold statement.

Each Platignum 'Carnaby Street' No.9 ball point pen has been ergonomically designed for comfort - to cushion and relieve the stress of writing - with its smooth, flowing action. Each pen comes pre-fitted with a blue ink cartridge but has the bonus of a black ink refill pre-packed in the smart, stylish Platignum branded, silver gift box. This beautifully weighted and balanced pen is perfect for everyday use and would make the perfect gift for people of any age group, from a pilot to a school child.

and then some more prosaic description from Cult Pens:

 

Platignum No.9 Carnaby Street is a metal-bodied retractable ballpoint finished in bright colours with a black rubber grip and glossy black trim. Push-button retractor and characteristic Platignum pen-nib pocket clip.

      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
