Agreed. No problem with the price and the material is truly intriguing.

So you managed a trade, FPK?

**Beadnit** · April 6th, 2012, 11:04 PM

I'm waiting for a TWSBI Micarta and an italic Shaeffer from Greg Minuskin. Thanks for the tip, FPGeeks!

My first Kaweco is on the way from Jetpens. A classic Sport in clear with an EF nib. and a preppy in black to putz around with. prolly do an eyedropper conversion (maybe on both.) wheee!

**KrazyIvan** · April 7th, 2012, 12:31 PM

I inked up my Kaweco Sport since I just got the 1.1 mm nib and clip for it. Loving the 1.1 mm nib.

Parker Duofold from Greg Minuskin and I would love to get an Al Kaweko sport. I'm still playing with my new TSWBI 540.

Waiting for my TWSBI Micarta! It's been a long wait. Ordered it the day it came out and have been watching it slowly make the trip from LA to St. Louis Missouri ever since... I think it was put on the slowest Fed-Ex truck in their fleet. Just made it to the outskirts of St. Louis last night and it's supposed to take another day to get to my house 20 Minutes away!

Oh well, I will have my bottle of Kon-Peki delivered on the same day so maybe it's for the best

Waiting anxiously for a Pilot Namiki Custom 742 with the Su (stub) nib in the medium size. Also ordered a leather pen case that holds 12 pens. I have pretty much wiped out my fountain pen fund. Going back to saving mode again.

I ordered 2 Kaweco Ice Sports from the Goulet Pen Co. One blue w/a 1.2 calligraphy nib, the other red w/a 1.1 calligraphy nib.

I like that they'll let you order a calligraphy nib for a few dollars extra, rather than buy a full pen w /nib and then an additional separate nib.
