Okay, so I live in Nebraska. Where I live there are farms and cattle everywhere. The cows actually do outnumber the people. So if you have ever been to a dairy farm.... you can't help but think this pen looks like a cow with one utter. Anyway, its a bulb filler with a 14mm body and 17 mm cap. The pen is 6 inches long capped. I got that whole length thing figured out since the last one. The pen body is 5 1/2" long. As near as my terrible math tells me the pen holds about 6.5ml of ink which is about 5 times as much as a converter. I would love to hear what everyone thinks... moo, because all I can.... mooo, think about... mooo, is a cow.

Jeff.

Very nice. What kind of nib does it have? Writing sample?

The pen has a fine Jowo nib. I don't have a writing sample... and you may thank me for that because my handwriting could use a little work.

Cool pen. I live among buildings, so the closest thing it might remind me is the Atom Heart Mother record.

Many converters hold 0.6ml, so 6.5ml sounds like enough for quite some days.

The more I look at it the more it gets charming.

The pattern looks terrific with the shape of the pen.

      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
