The Safari seems to get all the attention this year, so I want to find out more about its metal cousin.

 

Are there any official announcement and pictures, anywhere about the 2012 Special Edition color(s).

 

I think we talked here about a Blue similar to Glacier, but I also think that there is a pink and a white.

 

Am I right?

Is it fair for an intelligent and family oriented mammal to be separated from his/her family and spend his/her life starved in a concrete jail?

Thanks for posting the photo.  I can pass on the Cosmic.  I'd have to see the Azure up close before deciding to spring for now (and since I just got the new-to-me French Blue Safari in the mail about an hour and a half ago, it's now less of a "WAAANT!  Must HAAAAVE!" for me.  Although on my screen your photo makes it look more of a bluish grey, so it's not completely out of the question.... B)

My beloved Al-Star fell out of my shirt pocket twice yesterday. We’ve had warmer temperatures and I’m not wearing my usual sweater or jacket. I can’t see buying another one only to skin it up.😂

Thank you for the update, sentience. 

I ride a recumbent, I play go, I use Macintosh so of course I use a fountain pen.

      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
