as usual a very good review. Have a lot of fun with your pen ;)

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

I don't know the FPH pics of the pen make it look like there is alot of variation in the green, I'd wait to see it in person and buy one that I could pick.

I guess seeing a pen in real life is always the best idea.

Apologies for the thread revival, but I've found a couple here in northern Europe for 681 Eur (approx 850 USD).

 

Is that a reasonable price to pay for the Bernard Shaw? How much does it retail in the U.S.?

Of course it is a LE but since I'm just moving in the MB camp, my knowledge on prices worldwide is fairly limited.

 

If anyone can assist, I'd appreciate.

You can get a new Shaw in the FPH for roughly this price and probably less so assuming you are talking about a used one then it seams a bit expensive.

I would say a used one should go for around 700$ or less.

Much appreciated, Goodguy.

 

For the record, I was talking about a brand new one in a MB dealer here, after the 5% discount they give me.

 

I'll probably pass despite it to be a good opportunity, they seem to be desparate for business (the recession has made its mark visibly here in the last couple of years).

      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
