I apologize for completely forgetting about this. I got extremely busy with school and work, so I wasn't able to spend a whole lot of time online. Also, I tend to rotate through my hobbies, probably since I can't afford all of them at once, and I got absorbed in another one. Either way, I was going through some papers on my desk and came across my two CRV letters. They're a wee bit late, but here they are:

 

Don't know why, but I couldn't get my scanner to scan this full letter. The top line that's cut off just says Tsuki-yo.

To sum up my experience with Tsuki-yo. Good performance out of all the pens I tried it in and on all the paper I tried it on. Not a huge fan of the color, but I liked it better on the ivory paper. It's not on my short list of Iroshizuku inks to get, but I hope to have them all one day.

So many inks, so little time...

Anthony, I enjoyed the CRV with you. Amber

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Thanks for following up, and sharing your experience. I'd forgotten I sent that CRV off! You have lovely handwriting, and you may think it's an ordinary blue-black, but it suits your handwriting nicely.

So did I, just wish I'd gotten it up sooner!

Thank you! I've been working on my handwriting slowly since I started using pens. It's just difficult while being in college since I tend to revert back to my fast scribble print when I'm taking notes in class. I definitely liked the color better on the ivory paper though.

      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
