Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

Which craft numbers do these represent? Are they the Landing craft numbers?

An outstanding pen that I have got a real desire to own.

They don't seem to represent any particular craft number but rather just an estimate of the total number of craft involved in the D-Day Crossing.

My brother-in-law was shopping at the Vancouver Pen Shop in the early mid-nineties. Tom Selleck (who has filmed in Vancouver a few times) was there buying a D-Day pen.I heard that story not too long before I saw Mr. Selleck acting as General Eisenhower in a D-Day movie in 2004 called Countdown to D-Day. Funny how things are all connected in some neat way.

I love the colour of this pen. Is there anyone who makes an entire pen in a very similar colour?

 

OMAS did.

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
