Since misery loves company I figured I’d let you know: you have company.

Just give me the Parker 51s and nobody needs to get hurt.

Pen - Parker “51” aerometric, Burgundy, made in England in 1954.
Ink - Rohrer & Klingner Salix.
Paper - Rhodia No. 13 bloc pad.

Photography - inept (due to impatience and laziness).
Handwriting - still a messy, inconsistent scrawl (due to impatience and laziness) :doh:

Every school report I ever received contained the remark ‘could try harder’.

ETA: I just looked at my school report from when I was 11. My form teacher wrote “...must aim towards improving his handwriting, which he neglects” :lticaptd: :blush:

      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

      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
