Ran across this name recently in regards to a pen. Couldn't find any more information about the pen, but apparently he wrote a book? Called "The List"?

 

Anyone have information about this person? (I'm assuming he's a person?)

Hi Psyktek,

 

he seems to have his website at bbpen.com. He appears to be based in Beligium.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Denis.

It shouldn't be called "The List". It should be called "Le List", or rather the "LE List". It's a list of Limited Edition pens. If you want to see some outlandish monstrosities, take a look at the site. You'll have to log in as a user, though.

 

LE pens should be called OM pens, Outlandish Monstrosity pens.

I have to agree with that last post. I logged in and looked at the Stipula entry.....

 

 

 

MY EYES, MY EYES!!!! :lol: Some of the strangest objects posing as works of art/pocket jewelry. The majority of those pens would be, I think, absolutely unusable unless you sat at a desk and had a wall safe to store them in. Obviously made for collecting and not using in many instances. :doh:

Looking over the list most of the monstrosities seem to be european. I guess we're lucky that they don't come across the water :lol:

 

 

I wonder how many of those pens are superlimited editions maybe less than 5 or even a single of each. The perfect thing for someone with too much money and not enough taste ;) :D :rolleyes: :lol: :unsure: :blink: :sick:

Oh my! Check out the entries for Michel Audiard. Why even bother putting a nib on those things? They're supposed to be pens? Just call them sculptures and be done with it. Not that they are even in particularly good taste, anyway....

Too much cents, and not enough sense.

Taste is in the eye of the beholder.

Actually, there are many American monstrosities there, as well.

 

In fact, all of them come from the Outlands. And to the Europeans, the Americas are the Outlands, and to the Americans, Europe is the Outlands. The common factor is that they are outlandish.

 

Take care,

 

George.

Yes but the hideous melted wax or objects that when capped you couldn't guess were pens seem to be mostly of european production.

 

 

Yes the Americas has Krone but there are a bunch more of the one off oddities elsewhere.

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
