Hello~

 

My pen box is overflowing so I am cleaning house. This PIF is for a pair of Jinhao fountain pens (traveling together):

 

* Jinhao 163, glossy black/silver trim, with a custom-ground, rather sharp cursive italic nib, originally 0.7mm but now on the narrow side

 

* Jinhao X450, matte black/gold trim, with a smooth 0.7 mm nib, on the broad side

 

Both have snap-on caps and converters. I will also include a bag of additional converters.

 

This PIF will include free shipping to anywhere in the U.S. My apologies for limiting this offer to the U.S. during this time of difficult mail delivery.

 

I will keep this open for one week after it becomes posted. If you would like to put your name in the "hat," just reply to this posting. I will announce the winner here after the drawing.

 

My best summer regards to everyone!

Please toss my name into the hat!

You are all in the "hat"!

 

Keep 'em coming! This PIF will stay open until the evening of Thursday, July 23. Will pick a winner out of the proverbial hat on the 24th. :)

It's evening here in Wisconsin. A woodchuck has just stopped by the back door. It must be time to pull something out of the hat! Thank you everyone who joined in this very modest PIF. I wish I could send packages to all of you! This evening, this PIF goes to jcp1st. Congrats! Send me a PM with your mailing address and I will put this in the post to you.

 

All my best~

      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
