How Small A Nib Should I Go?

Recommended Posts

Pictures and more later when I ink it (them)!

 

Yes, please! I would like to see a writing sample from that XXF nib. Pretty please? :)

 

Of course! Sorry I'm taking my time on this one; I just got back from two weeks of travel through six cities and want to actually enjoy it :)

Looking forward also to seeing the Nakaya in action. I like the pen kimonos. I tuck my Nakayas into their kimonos every night. I could skip some of the packaging, especially if they dropped the price a few bucks. But it is nice.

 

By the way, did you want some Akkerman ink? If so, go to this link.

I'm still trying to figure out how to list all my pens down here.

Congrats sounds about right in terms of inks, you have to post the results now to the lost topic, so... if thats Thuston and Lovie, who does that make you.... the professor or Gilligan? Now we are starting to show our age. Congrats again on the pens excellent pens indeed....

 

Two weeks ago, I presided over a mock trial. The college students didn't know what the "Minnow" was. I was feeling my age.

 

And I have yet meet a man I respect who doesn't choose Mary Ann.

 

The bigger question is if you are Mary Ann who do you choose?

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Hi Sarahfar.
You have a very beautiful pen
You have beautiful handwriting
I would like to know exactly how to order a nib as you
I am interested in "Aka BB cut to a Stub / CI and the new one Decapod Kuro"
Maybe take a picture box from the store with information about the order?

3 have turned into 6 and the bottom line says 14K BB and the customization says Stub/Cursive Italic. I'll try to take some pics of thiat and the LOB/CI with flex too.
