:< such is a waste for it to become a beautiful stick... I think it's best to test it now before anymore problems that will arise with this pen... seriously who knows how many headaches it will incur 10 years later

 

 

I may not know u well...but from your replies, it seems that u are hoping for problems???

 

From your previous few comments, I opined that it is excruciatingly difficult to deal with negative people, people like you who like to bring others' mood down with your pessimism, anxiety, and generally I could feel that u have sense of distrust. While I can deal with you by understanding the reasons for your negativity. But I would not do it here. Anyway in brief, almost all negativity has its roots such as fear of being disrespected by others, the fear of not being loved by others, and the fear that “bad things” are going to happen.

 

I bet u hv better things to do than writing such time-wasting comments.. Suggest your bring these comments out of my threads and find your own playground.

 

Hope you gain the compassion, positivity, and maturity as I am not sure what seem to be your problem.

 

Hope u are blessed with all the positivity in 2015! May God Bless u!

Wow!!!! That is a gorgeous pen! You'll hear no negative comments from me about setting it apart as a work of art rather than a daily writer. Congratulations!!

 

When I think about the care and dedication to preserving and transmitting the Bible that generations of scribes exhibited... well, I think this is a wonderful tribute to that effort.

Beautiful artwork and decorations. Are you ever going to bring it outside or just keep it at home?

Since this is your 'grail pen', will you quit collecting after this?

I will bring it out to all my "pen-collector" gatherings, just to let my friends see and appreciate this piece of art. :) this will not be my last pen. this is just the beginning. lol

What a lovely pen. I have admired it in catalogs and websites and would dearly love it myself. I would ink it and use it if it were mine but it's yours to do with as you wish. I have never hesitated to use my most valuable pens because that's what they are made for.

 

BTW, I think Algester was not being negative or wishing for problems to occur but suggesting that if you don't test it now there might be some sort of problem that would remain undiscovered until you ink it 10 years hence. It's also possible that sitting unused for 10 years just might be bad for it. I think it was an attempt to be helpful.

Grace and Peace are already yours because God is the Creator of all of life and Jesus Christ the Redeemer of each and every life.

      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

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @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
