Dorsal Fin V2, Heki-Tamenuri, 'm' Hard Nib Bought From Nibs.com

[RPB]

WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW! OMG! And did I say WOW?

I'm lost for words at the minute. Both with the pen and the import costs! ha.

I also had the Snowflower converter as well. Just filled it with my favourite ink, Tsuki-yo.

I went for a medium nib as I was worried the fine may be too fine. I could have been wrong. LOL. However the nib just feels great and 'sings' across my Design-Y notebook so well. OMG I am in pen heaven.

Heki-tamenuri? I thought the Brown would be thicker than it is over the Green, and there is one little 'blob' of Brown on the pen which is a slight disappointment to me, BUT I have to realise it is hand made. Oh yeah, and the nib is not perfectly lined up with the 'fin' either! now i am being anal I know.

Enjoy! Im off to write more with it.

Awesome buy, I can only guess at the tear inducing customs bill. Always nice getting that grey form through the post isn't it....

Hi, I was that keen to get it, I tracked it to the local depot then went today to fetch it! They didn't get chance to deliver it or the customs charge letter. LOL.

I was at the depot door wanting it.

Congrats. I have yet to see a finish in the v2 I don't like. What a gorgeous gorgeous pen.

 

All the best

That shape is a masterpiece. There's nothing better as far as showcasing pen shaping skill than a DFv2. I'm currently trying to figure out how to purchase a Nakaya. Either a Naka-ai, Neo, or DFv1. I'm waiting for the SF pen show to see them in person and then the saving begins.

I'd love to see a video of it.
