Hummm...

 

Gap between tines seems to be too wide...

 

:lol:

These are apparently also going to be available at the new pen shop in Pittsburgh, Birmingham Pens (the new B&M store that used to be fountainpens.com).

Very cool. I bought a package of squirrel shaped paper clips. These would be another interest of mine!

Very cool! I think I'd like them better if the nib pointed downward, but I still intend to get some. ;)

And they're big and sturdy enough to actually be useful. I picked up a package of cat-shaped ones last year when I was at Wonder Pens in Toronto, and while those clips are really cute looking, they're sufficiently small and have a fine enough gauge of wire to be not much good for actually holding a lot of papers together (although I suspect that they'd make fine bookmarks... ;)).

      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
