Congratulations and enjoy the sweet pen - good stuff, Kurt :)

Actually I couldn't remember what the name of the croc. in Peter pan was called :lol: ... she had a taste for timepieces and phalanges... :lol: Maybe I'll do an annotation of the story a la T.S. E. for the little references that are in it. If you look close you might even see my wife's name :D

 

 

 

And thanks to everyone who voted for me, I hope you enjoyed it.

Congrats to all, and especially to the winner!

 

I look forward to future contests (perhaps, if I'm organised enough again, i might submit a piece)

 

Hope that there will be a great prize for future contests too. :eureka: (Any criteria for what qualifies as a good prize?)

      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.

      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
