I am not sure yet but I plan to visit a pen shop next week. That will be fun. Perhaps a Pilot of some model or a Pelikan. Would be nice if they have the Amethyst.

Perhaps my next pen will be one of those ....

A friend asked me to sell a part of his collection.

As he's doctor, he uses pens to write a few words many times a day , so screw caps are a handicap : he wants to get rid of .... He has big hands so he aldo wants to get rid of thin pens ....

He started his collection less than one year ago ....

The Pelikan M1000 is now in MY collection and I'm going to find new owners for the others ......fpn_1444582432__12107813_102076943126543

He is a doctor and getting rid of a VP? I imagine that to be quite a practical pen for a doctor. Or maybe my eyes are just not good enough at recognizing pens...

Intrigued by the demonstrator on the right. What is that, a Pelikan or a TWSBI? Can't really see the clip or anything.

Looks like a Pilot Custom Heritage 92..

Right, it's the Pilot Heritage .......

​I wouldn't be surprised if the next pen (set) for me would be a set of Staedtler Premium ​Initial Lignum, with fountain pen, rollerball, and mechanical pencil. But I have to wait till after my birthday next week, you never know if I will get gift certificates or something. The Staedtlers would be a bit less expensive alternative to similar set of Graf von Faber-Castell Classics...

      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
