All the leaves are brown

And the sky is gray

I've been for a walk

On a winter's day

California is great, but my Kanilea pens take me straight to Hawaii as I look forward to the end of another long Midwest winter.

 

Hugh and Carol with Jonathan Brooks do such great work!

The Maui Makai might be the best looking pen I have seen. The acrylic is stunning. I want to pick up a Kanilea when I can meet them in person, maybe this fall at DC pen show. Congrats

Can you put a vintage nib in one of them?

 

I believe they use Jowo #6 nib units, so anything that will interchange with those should work

They look great! :-)

 

Enjoy!

P.S.: The song will follow me this evening...

 

+ 1 on both sentiments -- the Kilauea is particularly attractive (and there are WAAAY worse songs to be earworming... :rolleyes:).

Beautiful pens.....anyone got six numbers or an oil well I can borrow for a weekend.

In reference to P. T. Barnum; to advise for free is foolish, ........busybodies are ill liked by both factions.

My wife and I picked up the same pens (with EF nibs) this weekend at the Chicago Pen Show!

      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

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
