I'd also like to know the clip color. Might help me decide between the clip or clipless. Thanks.

Clip color is silver...

Thank you Mr Mehandiratta and Mr Subramaniam for organizing this group buy. I have waited for this version of Nauka for a long time. I have just filled in the form and hope to receive your payment instruction soon.

Looks like the Jowo nib, if I'm not mistaken.

I have not noticed that on first look as I only concentrated on size comparison. But Vaibhav's nib seemed to be black in colour. Is it a special one or just the trick played by camera and lighting effect ?

I'm so glad this pen is offered as a group buy! I have the Nauka in black ebonite with a clip and a Schmidt nib. This one with the translucent body is perfect for use as an eyedropper, so I just ordered it as such with no clip. Same beautiful Nauka shape, two very different pens!

Just out of curiosity, since I'm waiting on the payment request, are Schmidt nib/feed combos and JoWo nib/feed combos interchangeable?

 

I've been thinking about getting some different colored JoWo nibs and if they are, then I'd prefer to get a pen with a Schmidt nib to save myself a little money when I switch.

I have many unlisted but I'm trying not to spam the thread.


I also am happy to provide new vials for samples too!

      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
