As already said here: pens with boxes are a cool thing...

I wonder, what's Christof going to be bring next?

 

Oh, yes, I see, you are still missing that single band light tortoise... (that ain't going to be hard compared to the two-banded one!)

Like everyone else, that light tortoise is taking my breath away. It is one of the most stunning pens I have ever seen... I wonder if I will ever have the chance to own one.

When I have a look at the "newly" made tortoise pens as the M101 tortoise and the M101 tortoise/red, I really doubt that a release of the 400 hellschildpatt (light tortoise) would be a good idea. It seems that it is quite difficult to find matching material in nice colors...

Totally serious question,

 

How would one go about finding one of these? And how much would one need to part with? I keep looking at this beauty with my mouth open.

Christof, that's some pretty hardcore stuff you are posting. Just gorgeous!

Does Christof own any black pens? :lol:

Fred, actually I LOVE black pens! It took me quite a while to get all the black Pelikans:

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
