Very nice!

 

All those 1009s in one place! They should be split up. I have room in my cabinet.

I am not allowed to sell on this site yet. I have not been an member long enough, nor do I have enough forums / threads started. Also yesterday I managed to get my wrist slapped by a moderator for answering a question honestly. That entire thread has since been totally removed.

 

Over next few days I will add more photos / threads on other pens that I have been gathering up over last 4 or 5 years in the course of my Charity Fundraising business. Sorry I am not allowed to give any info as to name of that business or its outlets. I am currently assisting 40+ charities across the UK.

Talking about selling here is a touchy subject. All pens I have gathered from my business activities over the last few years I have just been putting these in a box for my retirement fund. I have accumulated a few nice pens, Waterman, Cross, Parker, Sheaffer & Conway Stewarts to name but a few.

 

I laid my staff off last year and moved into semi-retirement, I now work a 3-4 day week aiming eventually to do 2-3 day week, this will allow my poor autistic / dislexic brain time to relax and unwind. I will never 100% retire. I have been looking for a platform / group where I may be able to pass on the better pens I have to people who will really appreciate them.

 

I still have a lot to learn about this site, must not break any more rules. This will also be my last post for now as I have now reached my maximum posting limit for 1st 24hrs on site.

      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
