No way !!!! Well who would have thought..................... :rolleyes:

 

Our pens / writing instruments / babies etc are worth so much, not only in money terms but pride of ownership etc and how do we maintain them ? with bed spanners and cutlery !!!! Come on people we can do so much better than that.............grabs tin helmet and hides :)

I come from a time,and a trade, jewelry,where you make a lot of your tools. Either from scratch or by modifying something else.

      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
