I'm with T-Mobile. I had near full bars throughout the entire space.

I must have been in a niche of folks with the wrong carrier! Good to know. Come and visit me or I'll visit you if you give me some clues.

Was my first show, and I had a lot of fun (especially with the trader pass and being able to dodge the crowd). I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me out-- I was able to get a vintage Pelikan nib fitted on my modern M600 body from a kind gentleman wearing a hat and a griege vest/outfit. He was across from Penguin Pens today and had a sign that said "Pelikan Parts." He also let me try his Pelikan concerto yesterday. I recall he had the golf & hunter pens as well. He didn't have any cards I believe so I was wondering if anyone knew his name! I'd love to keep a look out for him in the future.

You speak of Joe. He doesn’t have a website and in general he goes only to the LA show.

 

Joe is one of the elders in pen collecting. To know him is an honor.

      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
