My Nakaya Portable Writer "Bamboo Woods" from Nibs.com finally arrived today, after a delay at customs. There's not a lot of photos of this finish online, so I thought that I would share.

 

First two photos were taken with Leica X2, the rest with iPhone 5s.

For size comparison, here it is besides the Sailor Profit 1911 Standard, the Pilot CH 74, and the Lamy Safari.

Wow! This pen is a LOT more beautiful than I thought. The rich mahogony color of the section and the gold and umber of the bamboo and leaves is gorgeous. What an inviting and lovely pen!

I love this simple woods bamboo f. pen much more than the famous "Ascending Dragon " that is quite popular here.

It shows less, but suggest much more. Enjoy your pen.

Very nice taste in the pens. And the Leica X2 is a beast.

 

Congrats.

 

It's not the most versatile camera, but it suits my limited skills. :)

      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
