Simon very nice pen, reminded me of agate. I always get in a right state when Inking my pens and I’m careful. Thank you for sharing this enthusiasm with us. Better than watching tele. Looking forward to the Vodka on the Rocks!
Thank you Simon! Wow, I am so very much enjoying all your fountain pen videos. This particular larger size reminds me of the pen and ink set my Mom and Dad bought my sister and I as a Passing year school gift. You have sparked my happy memories 💞
It may be that ordering from different dealers or locations determines what comes in the box. I have a number of BENU pens and they've always come with both a converter and one long ink cartridge but I've never received a little pen stand as shown in your video. For your next BENU pen you may want to consider one of the models with glow in the dark ends, it just adds to the fun.
Simon No! I am not going to start collecting pens now!!! I might though. Confession: these fine pen videos I really like an awful lot, but I kind of use them as ASMR type things to cope with mundane workday stuff. But man that arctic blue really had me thinking about getting into journaling. I just wish I could start collecting cash instead of hobbies LoL!!!
Thank you for these posts Simon. Having always been commented on for my neat handwriting ever since junior school I've always thought you can't beat a fountain pen. Watching these posts has rekindled my interest, and I have this week splashed out on 3 new fountain pens by Nahvalur (new name for Narhwal pens) to use for my OBOD studies. I must admit I love them. A good weight in the hand and beautifully made. Do you have any? If not I can recommend. Thanks again for proving in this technological world that pen and parchment are (in my eyes) king.
Haha Simon!! 😆 I can completely relate to your passion for fountain pens!! I wrote with a Lamy for years and earlier this year decided to get myself a new fountain pen. It sent me down a rabbit hole and made me want to buy ALL THE PENS 🤣 Ended up with a TWSBI Vac Mini and a copper + resin one by Ystudio 👌 This Benu looks sooo beautiful - thanks for sharing!! 🤩
Bourbon is on my list.. It's beautiful-- BTW welcome to the #6 nib world, where you can exchange nibs very well. Also, Cult pens is a great resource. I order from them even though I am from the US. They are a great company.
Bwaaahahahaaa see i told you so Simon. Start with a Lamy and before you know it Benu has sucked you down the rabbithole! Congrats on your first Benu, it's a stunner.
Oh hey there Simon, or should I just call you SATAN? lol It's so beautiful. I wondered about the posting but as you always say you've got big hands and it looks like it fits. I love the little pen stand. I stan the stand! I have a new monitor, this is the first time I've really gone fullscreen to blow something way up and.... that Bourbon pen is almost mesmerizing. It's a beautiful piece of work. It's bling - no doubt about it - in that color palette it's maybe understated bling? lol Not really , it's just gorgeous. Tell the truth, Simon, did you buy the pen to match the ink? Confess!
I have just found about five messages from you in my “held for review” area here on UA-cam. I have no idea why, but I have freed them up now so should be able to respond. By the way, have you left the Hermit’s Cave Facebook group? I just went to do my weekly welcome to the new members and your name is greyed out. No problem if you have, I just hope someone wasn’t rude to you or something like that. 🙏🏻❤️
@@the_hermits_cave Facebook threw me out. I'm not sure why, I must have signed up wrong or something. Is it because I hate them? They're on to me! I have no idea but I'll try to figure it out later on today.
Beautiful Simon ,Thankyou.👏🌟🙏🏻♥️
You are so welcome, it’s one of my absolute faves 😍
Just amazing , beautiful ! Congrats !
Beautiful pen, lovely ink!
I adore fountain pens and I have quite a few of them. The Benu’s look gorgeous!

Not yet 😉
Oh great , nice colour and perfect to use 😍
It is really beautiful Simon. Enjoy
Bourbon always makes the day better, as we always say in Kentucky, the home of Bourbon. Lovely purchase, enjoy.
It is beautiful, congratulations to your first Benu pen!

I love the look of Twsbi pens!
Beautiful video! I have a Benu Dragon’s Blood and it’s so gorgeous. It’s definitely a rabbit hole!
Tell me about it, I’m now undecided between the Vodka on the rocks or the Celebration (I love purple).
@@the_hermits_cave I’ve just checked them both out and that’s an impossible choice 😂
hahahahah I love it!!!!!😂❤

Hello there, I know it’s very ‘off-topic’, but which deck is the one featured at 0:17 in the introductory titles? It looks great!
It’s the Keymaster Tarot. Beautiful isn’t it?
Yes, lovely! Thank you 🙏
Just ordered it! Thank you 😊
if only my handwriting wasn't awful 🤣
Mine isn’t the best! 😉
