Hello folks,

Here is a pen that is not earmarked for anyone specific, and so is going up for sale (I have too many pens already).

This is an example of one of my 'Shirt Pocket Fountain Pens' (SPFP), so-called because I designed it with the most practical needs in mind for a daily carry pen. These pens are a perfect length capped to sit nicely in a typical shirt pocket, yet when posted (they are designed to post deeply), the length is only about 10mm longer, which is very comfortable for most hands to write with for long periods. The diameter is also very nice for most hands, a little thicker than both the Pelikan M600 and the Parker Duofold Centennial (I had these handy for comparison).

The pen is done up in an eye-catching red, black, and white swirl acrylic, framed in black trim. The filling system is cart/converter as is typical for my pens, and it is currently fitted with a medium polished steel JoWo nib. I can swap out the nib for a fine, broad, or 1.1mm stub if you prefer. Or, if you like, I can custom grind a medium or broad to a stub or cursive italic, for $20 extra. All of my nibs are write-tested, smoothed and tuned before shipping.
