I couldn't resist... done the ordering, now doing the waiting.

Josh, I'm digging back into FPGeeks after a long break from said forums... and here you are!

Another beautiful Nakaya added to your collection, ay? Very nice. As you know, I got to see a mutual friend's Naka-Ai in ao-tamenuri. It's very alluring. The color at times seems very green, and in other light very blue.

How is that Decapod Twist in your hand? I do love facetted pens!

Hi Julie!

Beautiful indeed

The ao-tame is exactly what I was hoping it would be.

The Twist is heavenly in the hand. I was worried about the length, but it carries its weight (lightly) towards the front - my previous long pens (MB 149, Pelikan M1000, Danitrio Sho-Genkai) all had more weight towards the rear and just didn't feel right in my grip.

Glad you are back!!!

That makes sense. The other 3 would have the piston weight in the back, too. Glad the Twist is "heavenly." Nothing like a pen that feels great to use!
