    I'm reminded that this may be the only orange pen I've ever liked.

    Not enough to own one, but seeing others happy with it is just fine!

    Ah, it's back again!

    Hector, your pen had made a big impression on me, not the 'orangeness' but the concept and execution. Couple that with finding that PFM's were such a good fit for my hand, and I knew I had to try one of the Legacys. So, last August, I sat down with Jim Rouse at the SF Pen show, and about 1/2 later, I ended up with the one below (naturally, the photo is no match for your's). Jim is a great guy to hang with - in fact, I hung with him the night before when he and Scott Franklin had flown in for the show, down in the lobby bar. The crazy part? The other person there was Dan Smith, original owner of your pen!
