Signature Became My Edc

Recommended Posts

Working two days in an adverse environment, so I made the slim Signature my EDC--Burgundy RB, FP, Pencil.

 

Using a bold nib, and super smooth. These pens are so-o-o nice!

 

Just got my third ST Dupont, a LE Opus X.

 

Cross metal pens remind me of ST Dupont, and the "fit and finish", and especially smooth nibs of the Signature really evokes the Dupont writing experience.

 

Just my subjective impression.

 

These are affordable on The 'Bay. Consider one, (i have no conflicting interest woon't sell any of mine),

 

And if you have a few stuck away, pull them out, and use 'em if you got them.

It is too bad they Feel the thinnest of all the Crossi, otherwise, I won't argue with anything else you said.

 

An Outstanding pen. Their Flagship at the time that IIRC retailed for over $250.

 

In my opinion, it's Really easy to miss it as a Cross. It doesn't resemble any of their other pens.

 

I didn't go look on The Bay just now, but I remember when I thought the last major lot of new ones sold a couple years

ago. They did go cheap around $100 I think. The last nibs available on Fleabay and from the factory were B and XF. I

had a new XF in my pen, sent it to RI and had them put a B in it. The Signature had a bit more ornate engraving on the

nib too.

 

I figured I could always have the Broad ground Down to whatever...

      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
