Yep. Most of my pens start at $225 with a steel nib. Piston fillers add $150. That big fat sterling clip is another $100.

The ebonite adds a little bit as well.

I think the contrasting sections are lovely. They lead me to a question. Take the Amber fleck and Ivory acrylic Eastman for example. Can you execute the ivory pieces, the barrel and cap, in wood? How does wood affect the price?

 

I am absolutely drooling over Hakase's wood pens, but the prices being asked for them are rather high. (How's that for an attempt at understatement? :P ) You seem to be one of our very few home-grown pen turners willing to work in wood, and I am very interested in your opinion of both working with wood and of the quality of wood pens.

Sure I could do that. Working with wood increases the steps involved. I have to line the wood parts with acrylic or ebonite for threading and to keep ink away. I don't seal my wood pens, just buff, so it's up to the owner to keep the pens clean.

Send em an email shawn@newtonpens.com and we can talk about price depending on what you're wanting.

Thanks!

Sounds like a business I should get into!

It's a lot of work, and a lot of money to get started, but SO much fun. I can't imagine doing anything else right now. Who knows where I'll be in 5 more years though. :)

 

Nice thing about working in my own shop is I don't have to deal with a bunch of silly school politics, people who don't want to be here, griping and complaining, grading artwork (I used to be an art teacher, 7 years), discipline and writing kids up and having useless conferences with parents. :) My clients just tell me what they want, and I make it. It's great. :)

Very lovely! Wondering if the Black Ebonite Shinobi is for sale, and if so, how much? :)

 

I have one Shinobi available. It's a brownish tan fleck material called brown ice.

      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
