Congratulations! Our new product TWSBI Diamond 530 piston filling fountain pen won the German Reddot design award–2010.

 

This pen was developed by using a brand new design concept, by Internet interactive discussion with the fountain pen lover so to learn and confirm the final specification of the pen. The development stages were also posted on the Internet to let the people be more involved in the progress. For more information please refer http://bbs.twsbi.com...splay.php?fid=6

 

The pen is now on the final stage ready for mass production. It is scheduled be available in our web stores around May or June of this year.

Very interesting and congratulations on the award! I just might have to order one of these when they are avaliable, they look pretty good with a good sized nib. Any info on estimated pricing?

The sword is mightier than the pen. However, swords are now obsolete whereas pens are not.

Nice work! If it's a full sized pen I'll be very interested in one. What is the approximate price?

CONGRATULATIONS Speedy!!!

 

I'm following your posts here since day one and I'm really very happy your project is near conclusion, with such a great result.

 

I'll certainly get one (to start with) as soon as the german outlet will be operative. I hope it will be very soon.

Speedy, At $39, this would be a very affordable pen. Where are you planning to market this pen?

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
