Like the looks of the pen, though a bit too slim for my personal taste.  Attractive clip.

Jinhao FP - M. nib.  Ink:  Mixture black/blue.  Have had this Jinhao for about 14 yrs. 

There is no model # on the pen.  Dragon clip with red stone eyes.  Stone on top

of cap finial.  Nib surprisingly smooth.

Penbbs 309. Swapped the nib for a Jowo 1.1mm stub. The piston initially sticks when I fill the pen but screwing it in and out usually frees it up

A couple of Kaigelu 316s arrived yesterday afternoon. Lovely pens. The acrylic appears to be an attempt to duplicate Conway Stewart blanks.

Jinhao X450, Ebony 51A (#5 nib, not the hooded nib), 599, and 992.

I don't know if the PenBBS 494 is Chinese. I think it is, but don't know for sure.

Also a no name Lamy Safari copy that uses Lamy nibs, ink cartridges, and ink converter.

 

Have some 992 Demonstrators inbound. I want to convert them to dropper/syringe fill. 😷

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      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

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @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
