Lol @fountainpagan,

Seriously a lot of people think that it is really some sort of candy...I don't take it home at all because my daughter may just give this candy a try!

 

:lol: :lol: :lol:

 

Well, it is certanly a good representative pen of Holi ;)

Beautiful!

I am using this semi-custom ASA Maya 3 in 1 without cap bands prepared for my JoWo #6 nib units.

I noticed several problems and emailed ASA pens about them. Hopefully ASA can be of assistance in solving some of them. I will write a more elaborate review on the FPN regarding this pen in the future.

@ mhguda, it is such a pity you don't take your pens out of the cellar and share with us. I am certain you hide beautiful treasures. ;)

 

@ Fuellerfuehrerschein, nice ASA you have got there. Congratulations.

Hey, fountainpagan! I have actually shared pictures of at least two of my three Islanders: the Rosewood (the very first one) and the Kwihi (the most recent one, made from a blank that came from my parents' garden... Let me see if I can find the picture...

fpn_1461425857__fosfor_kwihi_3smaller.jp

Yes and I see I also had a picture that contains the sandalwood when it was new...

fpn_1446357060__fosfor_islanders_3.jpg

The Sandalwood is not the prettiest pen I have, but it's the best-smelling one!

 

ETA I am using the Kwihi regularly these days...

Thank you mhguda. Those are very beautiful pens :) .

But I was not talking only about the Islander. Good to have put you up to work. I know you hide beauties. :lol:

When I (finally) receive my Ranga Varuna Gajendra I promise to show it off here. I am not posting a photograph of my Ranga Transbamboo, because the photos I tried did not come out well. The same goes for the TransNauka. And I think those are my most recent new pens, except for the Maya (which others have shown better than I ever could) or the Gama Sneaky, which I'm still wondering if I like its looks (it writes nicely and the swirls form a nice pattern, but the color... not quite decided yet). So I will try and do a little better...

I am teasing you, Margo. You don't need to do the photos :) .

 

What model is the Ranga Transbamboo? Is it like the Ranga Bamboo? Or the Ranga Bamboo changed names? I don't know this one.

      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
