I keep saying it; but thank you for continuing this effort, Virtu! It's making me sad not to live in Japan! These videos make it seem like the fountain pen culture is stronger there then here.

Thank you so much for the kind words over again. Really glad to hear that! Mr.Tanaka is a craftsman who uses potter's wheels for fountain pen production. His "ebonite" pens are stunningly lustrous!

Thank you very much for this, Virtu!! I can enjoy the videos even more now!! I have no acces to emoticons anymore (may be someone can help me with that) so I can't give you the dancing bunnies.

Keep up the good work!!

Happy Writing!, Mainecoon

Awesome videos! I have to say thank you again, Virtu.

I do love Japanese tradition, craftsmanship and everything related.

Reading this thread and watching your YouTube videos has been a great pleasure for me.

 

Keep up great work. :notworthy1:

Thank you for putting all the relevant information in one place.

 

You info on the Daimaru Fujii Central is especially useful, since I am going to Sapporo next week, and will definitely be dropping by that store.

Next week!? What a coincidence! If so, please drop in at Daimaru Fujii Central. I bet you'd like it.

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time
