Today, with the cold (finally!!), an icy cool pen, with an icy cool ink color (in spite of its name): The Xezo Maestro in Abalone, with Waterman's South Seas Ink.

A winter poem from a Belgian children's reader...

I was packing my table when I uncovered this under a pile .

This was done a long long time ago, possibly a decade?

Its a practice hand , cos I was so inspired by one particular hand in that webpage Briem ? - something like that ..

 

I am kinda pleased with my own effort , having forgotten I once enjoyed handwriting for its quiet pleasures ...

I think it was written with a Schmidt steel nib reground into a CI by FPNer pb2 here :thumbup:

 

Sometimes its a struggle to correct handwriting habits,

I can't seem to improve on my alphabet 'a' .

Its supposed to be rounder at the top, narrower at the base.

But I notice I can't seem to overcome this . :(

      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..

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
