He Makes Them One At A Time...

[writepen]

Hello Fellow Members!

A friend asked me why I have never owned a Hinze Handcrafted Fountain Pen, and that sounded familiar--because another friend asked me the same question 4-5 months ago. So it was time to act, and here it is--I should not have waited!

This fountain pen was created by expert Custom Pen Maker, Jim Hinze.

The overall appearance fits the strictest definition of superb. The specialty resin of green, orange, and white, seem to move around with a whirling motion--chatoyant is the term used to describe this effect.

The threads are hand-cut quad start, which is unique for a custom pen.

One of the many desirable features of this model, "Amazon Jungle", is that the cap posts deeply which contributes to the ideal balance in the hand during the writing experience. And speaking of writing...Hinze Pens are fitted with Jowo nibs--considered by most fountain pen aficionados to be the most reliable steel nib. As we would anticipate, the nib is smooth and responsive and void of skipping, with a feeder delivering consistent, unobstructed ink flow. Specialty, in-house plating of nibs in a variety of colors is another option available. (See Photo--I picked green in addition to the silver). Nib grade choices are EF, F, M, B, 1.1 Stub, and 1.5 Stub. Mine is a 6mm size medium point. You can ask for 5mm if preferred. Bock nibs are also available upon request.

Sometimes we hear or read about fountain pens whose caps fall off in a pocket. The number of turns to remove and replace this cap is optimal and thus ensures a secure closure.

A Schmidt converter is included, and 2 ink cartridges can be added if desired, also free of charge.

All the features and benefits, including fair pricing, make it easy to understand why Hinze Pens has such loyal supporters! https://hinzepens.com

Nice pen, I assume the material is aluminite. I've been told is not so easy to turn but it does provide some rather interesting results.

 

I'm not a fan of your promo posts, and all those different size and font characters you used make me somewhat dizzy.

Out of curiosity I did look at the linked site, though. The pen turner looks like he knows what he is doing.

 

If I may suggest to him, the site needs more pictures. I'll never buy a pen unless I see what it looks like in all it's detail, and the section and nib is the most important part to see.

It's one of the easier materials to work with actually. So is ebonite and most regular acrylics. Celluloid, when you can find it, is a pain b/c it needs so much more time finishing it, but it's still not too difficult to machine.

ah, thanks Shawn, which are the really difficult materials then?

btw I think I've seen some G10 pens you've made!

Well, I've just ordered one and I'm excited to see it when it arrives.  @sansenri I think they took your suggestions, the website now has a lot more photos.
