Edison Mina in Black Mottled Celluloid
18k Gold nib --- Ground to 0.25mm needlepoint by Mike Masuyama
Cartridge/Converter
Asking $230 shipped to registered PayPal addresses [International users pay shipping]
This pen is one that I want to love, but it is not right for my hand. I had Brian make it with a slightly extended section instead of the traditional section. The extended section does not modify the balance in my opinion, and still fits within the original cap. I am attaching the original photo from the Edison Pen Co. as well as one of my own that shows it off in the sunlight. The extended section did make it comfortable to me for short spurts, but longer writing sessions still finds the step between the body and section hitting my middle finger in just the right (wrong) way.
Please note that the sunlight catches the dust in the second photo quite well...it is not scratched.
Mike Masuyama's work is excellent as always.
1783017832
I also have a pen rest that I bought with it that could be added for $10.
If you don't want the gold nib, we can work something out there as well. I have a 1.9mm stub and JoWo #5s are readily available.
