Have not corrected any of the flaws on these pens as I will leave that to whomever gets them to make that decision. I can also include a Liangbo dual nibbed pen with any trade as well if you are interested. What do I want to trade for?? Well, I'll let you know what I want/like... MB 146 (fine or medium nib), Namiki Vanishing point Raden (fine or medium nib), Aurora Ipsilon Deluxe (fine or medium nib), Sheaffer PFM IV any nib, Eversharp Doric any nib. What else am I looking for? I don't know.... what do you have?? You have an idea now of what I'm looking for. I'll take offers to purchase as well. PM me or you can email m_dbrown at yahoo.com

 

Thanks.

Let's see... the Phileas, Targa, Imperial, Senator and Carene nibs are nails... zero flex. All smooth but no give at all. All of the remaining pens have flexible nibs, the Waterman ringtop is probably the most flexible.

      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
