      I’m hoping the paper holds up under FPs. It was a really nice show this year. I hope you can get to one yourself. It’s so nice to be able to hold the pens before you buy.

      I need to find a better way of telling folks I’m there, but I’m just so shy. 🙈

    OMG I love this! What a fun pen show! I am very enabled with your stationery purchases, and so glad you got nib time with Kirk. What a bummer about the Pelikan, but I’m so excited about your oblique grind on the Kaweco. I have a couple of oblique nibs and I definitely need to explore them further. I have one of the F-C pocket notebook covers and they are so well made. I hope your husband loves it. That tiny pen is awesome, and I love your Little Pen Designs pen. Totally gorgeous! And your labels! I need to check my stock. 😹 Thank you so much for sharing! 🤘🏼😸🧡🖋

      Pen shows are the best! Yeah, I’ve been trying to force myself to love that Pelikan, but I think it’s time to pass it along to someone it’ll work for. That oblique is so pleasant. Actually, I’m going to go clean out Kirk’s ink and ink it right now!

      It’s so much better to be able to handle them in person. Especially if you’re not sure if it’ll fit your hand.

    I don’t think Kirk Spear is capable of selling a poorly performing nib. I purchased two pens at the Triangle Pen Show. An Artcraft Celtic Dragon from Kirk. The tactile feel of this pen is fantastic, and the John, the maker of the pen, is very responsive and easy to work with. I also bought a beautiful Red & Black Ebonite pen from DarailPenz.
    Nice haul.

      Nice! I had chatted with him a bit about the mini Wancher and asked if he tuned it, and he said he doesn’t. They’re just that good out of the box. My Nahvalur I bought from him also has a great nib. So I think you may be onto something.

    What grinds do you have on your Pelikans? I have a medium nib that I need to get tweaked because it's just too broad for me.

    • @TheDormousesDesk
      @TheDormousesDesk  7 місяців тому

      I have a cursive italic and an architect. My other m400 is vintage with a bit of flex.

      @@TheDormousesDesk Nice! Do you have a favorite? I know people say that the cursive italic is hard to write with, but I love the way people's penmanship look with that grind.
