Delta ommagio fountainpen.it. The metal finish at the rings show the pen’s age with a bit of micro pitting. The stub nib makes it difficult to manœuvre over the paper, so I keep it for signing documents. I like owning and using it as a piece of a company that tried to innovate and left us with interesting pieces. Pity they’re out of business

Keeping it simple today with just one pen for everything: Platinum Carbon Desk Pen EF filled with Platinum Carbon. It's one of the few pens I think of as perfect for both writing and drawing. Small handwriting and delicate lines. And the ink is fantastic with watercolour.

Will work for pens... :unsure:

OK so I don't know what year it is! My excuse: lingering effect of 2020... :wacko:

 

Is it possible for a magician moderator to move posts to the 2021 thread and lock this one?

Well, given that this is page 74 of a thread which technically started in 2019, I think you're okay....

Good point, I'll lock this one as there is a 2021 topic in play.

      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
