Hello,

 

I have been reading this for a while, finally decided to jump in and join you guys for some feedbacks.

 

I have been collecting for a while now, and had collected a large amount of FP, RB and BPs

 

Parker, Waterman, MB and Duke to name a few.

 

Hope to be able to interact with all of you and be able to utilize each other's knowledge.

Welcome to FPN. It's good to hear that you've made the leap from reading to posting.

Hi Tony, and welcome to FPN from another Michiganian (er, Michigander).

 

If you haven't done so, check out the Michigan Pen Collectors at www.michpens.com. The next meeting is December 10th, so you're timing is impeccable!

So here's what happened
While you were nappin'
I just went out for a snack
I was feelin' famished
And then I vanished...
But now I'm back

Hi Tony and welcome aboard! Sounds like you're off to a good start. Maybe we can help you get well on your way to a large collection :P :P ;) . See you around.

      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

      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.

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.
