Welcome Nipu,

 

The great thing about this site is you get to find out that you are not alone, there are plenty more Fountain Pen users/addicts/collectors out there in the wild world.

 

Best,

Nipu,

 

scribbles in my moleskines seem pretty bland

Don't be put off by some of the stuff you see here.

There are folks whose writing is just naturally lovely - wife Sheila's is really nice, mine starts a page OK then degenerates as my brain (?!) switches from writing to communicating . If you get a formal letter from me it will be very neat & nicely done, my rambly snails tend towards scribble. :blush:

 

If you want to PM me we can have a chat about Avatars

 

Regards,

Welcome to FPN. BTW, just a tip, I think that down below you need to wear your FP upside down in your shirt pocket in order to keep it from leaking. :lol:

      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
