I have four Nakaya pens by now, and these are truly excellent writers. I am planning to make a trip to Frankfurt by the end of January to meet Nakaya (I don't know who will be present there) at the Paperworld Fair. I recently got one of their desk pens, which is a pleasure to use. Whenever I take the pen out of the trumpet, it writes without hesitation. Ruud

The 'stone' finish is wonderful :rolleyes: I saw people saying the Nakaya website was not the easiest one to surf on, I have to say I can't find this finish in the listings. Anyone can help me to safely circumnavigate this site ?

You find that finish on the Nakaya website, choose 'special order' on the left hand side, and look for 'Ishime' on the left hand side. On that page, only a sample is displayed. I guess that the best way to order a pen with this finish would be to choose a model, and then ask them to make it in this Ishime finish. You can email Nakaya at nakaya@platinum-pen.co.jp.

"My very first Nakaya"

 

Covetness tinged with lust here. (I don't think any Smilies quite express how jealous I am!)

 

Please tell us all about this pen and its nib.

 

This is the one I think I want

 

(If I can get a picture to show...)

The very same Nakaya I have my eye on.

Go ahead!!!Go ahead!!!

You won't be sorry!!!!!

      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
