My First Bexley

Recommended Posts

I didn't plan on buying one today (though I have wanted to get one). A new-in-box flat top for $80 was way too good to pass up. I got #29 Green on Green with a fine nib.

 

Anyone in the Columbus area, Robert Mason in the Short North has more Bexleys at that sale price through tomorrow. I don't recall which other ones they have other then definitely #30 Blue with Brown.

I have an orange Flat Top that I got straight from Bexley on their eBay listings. I really like mine - writes great, and has a great feel to it.

He made me dip test it. It really wasn't my fault. :D

Nice to know that Howard is providing some of his non-production pens to Robert to sell. Just the kind of thing which can happen in a place like Columbus. I hope they both do well in this endeavor.

As if I need more excuses to buy pens. :D

      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
