The Worcester Pen Company have built a first class reputation for superb quality hand made pens, their latest model may be a design departure but the quality and style are still most evident.

I think it is, havent seen the pen in person, but I understand that it is in silver. Described as the Worcester Matte fountain pen with Sterling Silver Skull roll stop.

 

At the London pen show in 2016 one American visitor was struggling with the pronunciation of Worcester, as in the town and Worcestshire Sauce. Pronounce both as Wuster, we do.

That tends to vary based on what part of the USA you're from. Massachusetts has a city named Worcester, and we pronounce it as "Wuster," pretty much just like you folks do. And yes, Americans from other parts of the country also have trouble pronouncing "Worcester" when visiting Massachusetts.

Same pronunciation challenge with Gloucester, MA. Some people want to call it " glow - (as in wow) chester rather than the "native pronunciation of Gloster or as we say it here in Gloucester, "Glosta"!

 

We do tend to "speech" funny here in Massachusetts. Especially Bahstahn!

One of the first speech lesson I received when I first moved to Hudson, Ma, was from a taxi driver who was taking me to Logan Airport (Boston). According to him, the correct pronunciation for Worcester is "Wustah"!

Amusing clip of an Italian chef trying to pronounce Worcestshire.

 

 

I had a look at the new pen at the London show and it is superb, a very special finish, innovative design together with very high manufacturing quality.

 

If you want a new pen that is a little bit special, a pen you will not see everyday then contact information is below.

Wouldn't that actually be pronounced "Wustuh"? B) (I lived in Framingham for 4 years).

LOL, yes, technically it would be pronounced "Wustuh" if you have an old-school "Bahstahn" accent. :)

 

I don't have a very strong Boston accent, despite having lived in Massachusetts pretty much my entire life, so I personally pronounce as something closer to "Wuster," but understand it both ways. :)

All this talk of Worcester sauce is making me want cheese on toast, or maybe a nice welsh rarebit.

Splash some Worcester sauce onto cut cherry tomatoes laid on top of the cheese on toast before it is grilled, gorgeous.

That's a charmingly funny video but I'm afraid as soon as the picture came up I had a heart attack....

 

"Nooooooo!!!!!!! he's using *Heinz* Worcestershire sauce?"

 

It's *got* to be Lea & Perrins! (Available in Leclerc, Anet, France - at least *they* got it right! and with a bit of soy sauce, garlic, parsley, basil and olive oil, it makes a fantastic marinade for beef.)

Too many pens, too little time!

Agreed on that AMK, father has it with so many things, even soups and macaroni cheese.

 

 

Lets not forget the original mission of this thread, Worcester Pen Company. I saw their products in London and they are of the finest possible workmanship.

 

Please take a look

Interesting pen anyway.

 

 

An interesting pen from an interesting company.

 

It is very easy to go and buy a pen from the big 3 makers, but the Worcester Pen Company takes pride in what they make and makes a very good product.

 

Only a small company, they deserve our support.

      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
