I need one, please!!!! Just completed form, using my real name (pm me for that, if you need to), but PLEASE engrave "Irish" on the name cap, if I'm among the first 20 (and it looks like I am :) ). Thanks!!

I'm in! I love that I can get a JoWo nib on it - they have really aggressive feeds that seem less prone to blobbing on eyedroppers than the traditional hand-cut Indian feeds.

In the description you wrote that the pen is a 3-in-1 filler (eyedr + c/c), but on the form there's a choice between eyedropper and c/c: which is the difference between the two options?
I mean, the eyedropper version can still accomodate c/c ?

Thanks

I am confused by the filling mechanism and nib options. I would like a Schmidt #6 nib, but I also would like to use this pen as an eyedropper. If I choose c/c mechanism on the order form, can I still remove the converter and use the pen as an eyedropper?

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      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

      @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
