Ooo, nice blue. Now that I'm all about the blue may I ask what it is . . . ?

 

Umm, the color may not be reproduced very faithful here, I fear (you can tell that the lighting on the paper was pretty uneven). That said - it's Sailor Seiboku blue black pigment ink (in a brand new Pelikan Souverän M805 black blue silver with M nib).

Phew. I thought I was going to have to add another to the list. Sebuku is lovely but trashed one of my pens when I forgot about it. You make it look lovely . . .

Thanks! It certainly is (the very nice nib might have helped some, too ...)

Took a bit more care with the color this time, in turn let some creatively malformed letters stand (no, that's no spelling error in the third line - neither in the fifth).

Does handwritten using my keyboard count?

Nature is the one song of praise that never stops singing. - Richard Rohr

Poets don't draw. They unravel their handwriting and then tie it up again, but differently. - Jean Cocteau

Enjoy the ink, but what's the pen?

Yours,

From a person's actions, we may infer attitudes, beliefs, --- and values. We do not know these characteristics outright. The human dichotomies of trust and distrust, honor and duplicity, love and hate --- all depend on internal states we cannot directly experience. Isn't this what adds zest to our life?

Thanks. The pen is a Parker 45 with a right footer oblique broad italic, nib code Z. Nice nib but I prefer the standard broad italic, nib code E.

Beautiful writing.

I thought that the ink was Pelikan Edelstein Mandarin until I saw the postscript.

 

Cheers, David.

There is no fanciness to my handwriting, but as an ultramarathoner this is one of my favourite quotes and beautifully describes how it feels to lose yourself along some remote mountain trail amongst the peaks.

      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
