Case For Asa Nauka?


T4TEXAS

Recommended Posts

I just received a custom Nauka and am intetested in a single pen case for it. The pen is huge, 163 mm in length.

 

Would greatly appreciate any suggestions for a single pen case or other alternatives. In production or someone who could custom make one. Preferably leather so I could take it with me, but open to other ideas.

Look up Michael (my63) who has a couple of long threads on FPN about pen cases. His leather work is fantastic and he uses a special tough insert to make the cases proof against your sitting on them, and other accidents.

 

Hope you enjoy your Nauka. It's a lovely pen.

Too many pens, too little time!

Michael will do a great, an exceptionnal work, and the result will be worth far more that what you will pay for. This being said, I am using regular 2/4/6 pencases for my Nauka without any trouble. This should apply for a on pen case I guess.

Nano, I have a 2 pen case and a 3 pen sleeve and neither will hold my Nauka at 163 mm capped. Would you measure yours please, and also tell what brand regular cases you use.

The pen is 162-3 mm closed. The pen cases are

- 6 pens: Franklin Christoph Penvelope

- 4 pens: unknown brand

- 2 pens: bought to member ashishwakhlu

 

I must add that I am using a one pen case made for my Densho by member my63. It's a h*** of a pen case!

 

Edit to add: sorry about the double post

      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
