Yesterday was a tri-colour day; Noodler's Nikita (red), Monteverde Green, and Noodler's Kung te-Cheng (Imperial Blue).

My son's lever filler had a rather spectacular sac failure resulting in a very impressive deluge of J. Herbin Lierre Sauvage

Yet another Sarah.

Kobe Maya Lapis Bue and Diamine Shimmering Red Lustre (needed them both to finish up holiday cards).

A bit of Lamy Petrol while cleaning out the M300, wrapped the nib with a paper towel when I unscrewed it but then picked it up with my fingers to drop in the cup of water to soak.

It's hard work to tell which is Old Harry when everybody's got boots on.

There appears to be a tiny bit of diluted KWZI Chicago Blue LE. And inside my thumbnail a little bit of Birmingham Smithfield Street Bridge Truss Blue from yesterday....

My right hand is lightly stained in Noodler's Baystate Concord Grape. The tinge is quite light, so it looks like I have a skin condition...that's what I get for reaching my hand in the soaking water to reteieve the parts of my Charlie I was (putting off) cleaning!

      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

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 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
