Having ordered from Asa Pens directly before I would imagine that the Jowo nib offerings are XF-B and 1.1mm italic.

This is a beautiful pen, but I want to be sure of the size (I hope it is a large one), especially the length from the nib point to end-of-barrel (uncapped and unposted), or a comparison photo. I like to write unposted. The ASA site usually has this information available.

 

Also, it would be helpful if a list of color names or color descriptions were available, since the light on the right side of the rod photo did not allow the colors to be specifically defined.

 

Thank you for this group buy!!

Which still leaves the question of nib widths with the Schmidt and 'stock' nibs... I would also still like to be sure that my preferred nib width would be available before committing myself, usual listings aren't always a guarantee that specific widths will be available.

I believe the standard sizes, but I hope to have more information this evening or tomorrow.

ASA is in India and I am in New York. I have to wait for the sales page to be available on the website.

I am not sure the exact names of colors. Those small rods are new ebonite colors they received. I too write unposted, and I have larger hands. I have asked for dimensions, but that was this morning my time, overnight in India. Here is a comparison photo:

      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
