:cry: I had your photobucket album bookmarked, and then yesterday it was suddenly password protected. That really broke my heart!!! -_-
I have a few dozen pics saved on my HDD, but I need more....

Reading PMs. If that's true: that's two Sasquatch thumbs down! Unbelievable...never heard of something like that before.

Hm, if I wanted a stub nib, I would go for a Lamy 1.1 in that price range (more stub nib variety). Unfortunately, Lamy 1.1 stub nibs are nowhere to be found here (please correct me if I'm wrong; that...

The demonstrators are standard models here in Japan...

There is another difference: The demonstrators ("iro-ai" models) always come bundled with a CON-50 converter. There's is also a third nib...

Lamy ABC (=> German standard grammar school fountain pen)

Nagasawa in Kobe already posted a picture on one of their blogs, so they should sell them already, too.

Cursive!

My cursive is ugly, but my print is even worse...

Lets take the 3776 Century for example: I can get that pen for 8,000 Yen without hassling with shipping, ebay, etc. And if I go to a normal store it's just 10,500 Yen. If I'd have tried to buy one in...

My updated list:

- Sailor Profit Fude DE Mannen (55°) => because it is so cheap done ^_^ -> very light, hard to control, a lot of fun
Twsbi 540 1.1 mm stub exchanged
Twsbi Vac 700 EF exchanged...

As for the nib of the Kaweco: Take a BB nib and grind it to a stub. There is a lot of tipping to play with ^_^

My 60's Kaweco Sport became my daily writer since my GEHA Schulfüller needs to be retipped...

A metal pen the size of a Twsbi 540 means a lot of weight (unless they go for a thin aluminam). We'll just have to wait.

It seems like there is a great hunger for the flex in Japan...


Recently this youtube video of a Custom Namiki Falcon Resin (Mottishaw Spencerian mod) has become very popular. It is already at...

Not the finest out their, but you could also take a look at Kaweco Sport EF. Pretty smooth for how fine it is. You can also check the Nib Nook feature of the GouletPens website:...

Kobe Ink Selection Limited Edition "Vermeer Blue".

Had to use newly bought coffee mill...what a difference!

Yep, the GEHA cuts into the paper when flexing. But I was surprised, that there still was no bleedthrough.


I have also bought a smaller one that seems to have different paper. It it not at...

Here is a short review of a Campus notebook as it was requested on the chat.

- Size: B6
- Pages: 30 sheets
- Paper: 15 "lines" per page. The lining is for writing English (= Western languages)....

Wow, that is one awesome looking Sheaffer!

That will be hard. I have never seen one on ebay again (Americon and German ebay). Also not web shop has this model. When I bought it the seller also had two other older models...

I just thought that since they offer a fountain pen it would be the sensible thing to complement it with a fitting notebook...

Sounds great. Now they only need to provide more (and cheaper) shipping options ^_^

Fine internet radio:

KEXP also has great little gigs (3-4 songs) of mostly smaller and often local bands on their youtube channel. I use it too find "interesting"...

This notebook is actually the first one I have seen here in Japan that specifially targets fountain pen users. No other (Japanese) notebook I have seen here so far was labelled as fountain pen...

The dot grid paper and the paper of the notebook I reviewed are not the same. Only the reviewed one is specifically labelled as fountain pen friendly (at least in Japan). That was the reason why I...
