Hi, I'm very excited to say my first hello :)

I'm from Calcutta, India and recently switched my city to Delhi.

Professionaly I'm a director of design and a fashion editorial photographer
by choice. I have been using fountain pens since I was kid, I remember,
the first fountain pen I've ever used is a Parker 51. Now, I'm a Sailor man.

Three things I can't live without; my Sailor Sapporo, my Moleskine
and my Winsor & Newton watercolour.

Greeting, AR

Welcome. One warning, it is a great place to become obsessed with fountain pens and there are a great bunch of enablers.

 

Wood engraver, potter, and sketch with fountain pens here. Do you sketch with your pen and use the Winsor Newton washes over the line drawings?

Wow -- your first pen was a 51? I'm jealous! I never heard of them until I found my way here a couple of years ago. Now I have 4 of them, plus a 51 Special and a 21. LinearM is right, BTW -- this place is just loaded with enablers.

You probably will want to spend a lot of time in the Ink Review forum if you like color at all -- there are some really amazing inks out there.

Howdy and welcome to the FPN. Seems that you have much experience with pens. FPN ' found ' me about a year ago and I'd held a FP only a few times. After coming here, a person with one pen, I have been ' forced ' to seek more, and more, and more.... Enjoy.

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
