Prague Calling

Recommended Posts

Hello hello,

greetings to the community. Let me introduce myself.

 

Well, I am not slightly over 30, called Peter, born in the Orwell year, made in Slovakia, currently living in the capital of Czech republic, Prague. I am working as an After sales support in a former IT eshop (now they / we sell many more stuff, so it is not so interesting for me as it was years ago). My hobbies are computers, photography (on film), DX-ing and yes, yes, good pens :-)

 

My deeper interest in fountain pens started about a year ago but I really could not get myself into buying some serious pen. I just read a lot of reviews, dreamed about beautiful royal blue inks in a classy pen. But everything has changed yesterday when I bough my first one (and only one, as of today), Faber-Castell Ambition Black with F nib, Pelikan 4001 blue-black ink.

 

I dont want to write a lot about how it is a change in my life (it is) and how beautifly this pen writes - probably you all know this pen better than me. So everything I wanted to say is: Hello, I am here and I already am using fountain pen. And since 1 picture is better than 1000 words, here it is:

Have a nice weekend :-)

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
