Hi all! Photos of everything here: https://imgur.com/a/Bsm5QHQ).
First up for sale is a 1970s Kaweco Sport set, with fountain and ballpoint pens and leather pouch (and cute-ass medallion). The fountain pen is super special because it has a BB nib in 14K gold, which writes more like a stub (writing sample in album). Aside from user-grade microscratching, there's a significant crack in the cap, which seems to have stabilized for the most part but is worth noting either way. The crack does not affect the pen's performance at all--piston filler still works great, and the nib is a delight. The ballpoint is missing its refill, but I think there's a modern Schmidt one that should fit. Anyway, asking $85 OBO including CONUS shipping.
SOLD Up next is an 18K JoWo nib unit from FPNibs that I've only inked twice, and bought unused (I think) on here. The nib is plated in ruthenium-colored coating, and has a super cool "Naginata-Togi" grind on it, which is kind of like a rounded architect. At a higher angle, the nib writes a nice fine line, and at a lower angle, a fat architect-ish one. More info on the original grind style here: https://www.nibs.com/content/sailor-specialty-nibs. Nib will come with its original FPNibs box/label thingy. Asking $70 for this badboy, including CONUS shipping.
As ever, message me with questions, offers, or puns. Happy writing!
