Not new in pens but new here and old in Japan

[mke]

Nearing the end of my worklife, I am looking into having more time. First thing to do is to simply and reduce.

I then have more times for my cats @mkeinj (Instagram) and for the pens I want to keep and use - see @mkepens (Instagram) and https://mkepens.blogspot.com/ (Blog, irregular hopefully becoming regular then).

Some people might know me from FPN (mke, also there). I am an out-spoken user (fan?) of Waldmann pens, Scriptorium pens and Manupropria pens - I also like Hongdian pens because of their EF nibs.

I wrote about my keepers here: https://mkepens.blogspot.com/2022/02/slimming-down.html
However, it might needs an update soon if I really buy a special Montblanc, I will then sell the pens under "The big ones" and the "Second-level keepers" too.
They will appear at http://mkengel.de/pensales/pensales.html if it comes true.
