The Nakayas Have Landed!

[stevesurf]

a die hard Montblancer is getting interested in these Nakayaka thingys

 

Me too! Having written with Frank C's extra fine nibbed Nakaya, it took me back to the days I used to draw with rapidograph pens.

 

Now if I can only find a large 149 or 146-sized Nakaya with a real extra fine

Caution -- One or two strokes or rubs at a time. You're not in a hurry. I tend to get impatient, but I try hard to slow way down

I've bitten the bullet and have now got a halfway decent nib. It still needs tweaking. I'm being cautious, but increasingly annoyed about what a monster of a lemon this nib is. I just have to pick up any of 5 pens next to it and the writing experience with them is smooth and gorgeous - and it was that way right out of the box and has continued to be for years.

 

I'm still reeling at the money I paid for this Nakaya that may yet end up as an unusable work of art. Should have bought one of those shiny Japanese trays instead. I could have had that work of art at an eighth of the price!

 

Sadly, I can't yet say, in any way shape or form, that this pen is gorgeous to write with.

 

@Pen Nut - now that you mention it... ROTFL
