    Default Hello from North Bend, WA

    I've been a long time lurker but introducing myself now. I'm a year and a quarter or so into this addiction... uh, "hobby", and my daily carry is a nock.co Brasstown holding some some Lamy Safaris and AL-Stars and Kuretake brush pens for sketching, alongside a nock.co Lookout with a TWSBI 580 Rosegold with a CI nib grind, a yellow (ORANGE) Vanishing Point, and vintage Wahl Eversharp. And I think Montblanc Irish Green is the best ink ever produced, with Kon-Peki a very narrow second

    Hey there! Care to post some sketches? We have a thread for that.

    Never tried Irish Green, but I have Kon-Peki! Welcome aboard.
    My other pen is a Montblanc.

    And my other blog is a tumblr!


    And my latest ebook, for spooky wintery reading:

    Welcome! Nock cases are brilliant aren't they? I invested in the full Kickstarter set & have never regretted it. You must post some of your sketches.

    Afraid I can't agree about Irish Green; it's a very nice ink but there are better....... ;-) ;-)
