Today’s a Good Pen Day!

Truth.

Today I am packing my LAMY 2000, Sailor Sapporo, Pilot Falcon and Pelikan M205

I just ordered one of these for myself today with 1.1mm nib.  I had some reward points that made it a free pen!  Whee!!!

I got myself a TWSBI Mini for my birthday. Yay!

And, here, in case you want to get one for yourself.

This is like a typewriter for me.  I’d love one, but I’d never use it.  My fountain pens are already anachronistic as it is.

I still want a Mini.

I would love one of these urushi lacquered pens one day (in a less gaudy/more masculine finish, of course!)

One day … when my ship comes in …

Nakaya handmade fountain pen, “Writer” model, portable size, in aka-tamenuri lacquer. Description from the site:

“Tame-black”, a grand master piece of Nakaya Fountain Pen,
is a different coat of lacquer. Its characteristic is that blackness is lesser and 
the red is out from the very beginning. 
It gives a sense of transparency by deep combining the beauty of deep red. 
Lacquer is really very beautiful.

The story behind Nakaya is pretty cool. Also, check out the wonderfully hyper-detailed order form. 

I saw one of these at the DC Pen Supershow some years back and instantly fell in love. I’m saving up my freelancer money for this.

(Also, immlass? I think you’ll really admire the purple variant. If I weren’t already crazy about the aka-tamenuri, I might consider it.)

Some #German stuff that made me happy today—getting my #LAMY 2000 back from repairs, a bottle of Rohrer & Klingner Salix and a #Fischer-Dieskau compilation from the library. (Taken with Instagram)

I am so ordering one of these as soon as they are released.   I love my Vac 700.  TWSBI is a fantastic pen company.  And so glad they don’t charge an arm and a leg for pens with integrated filling systems (um, Pelikan, I am looking at you!)

For some reason, I’ve been craving a TWSBI.  But damn, do I need another pen?  I have way too many!
