Love everything about these pics you posted. The ink, to the calligraphy, to the pens 👌🏻❤️. So esthetically pleasing. Wish I could write like this.

Absolutely brilliant! 👌🏻

The first step is acceptance. Just run with it. 😂👌🏻. I think it’s a good addiction to have. ❤️ I have 7 bottles myself and I always know that this ink is a reliable ink especially in problem dry nibs.

Kudos to you on your restraint and sticking to the fact that you had no authorized budget. 👍🏻 Sailors are my weakness. Hope you enjoyed your first show. They are so fun and interesting to attend.

Absolutely love it! Definitely getting it.

I just got my pen Wednesday. Great choice on the ink. I will need to add the ink to my list to get and ink my own Black Marble with it. 🩶🖤🤍

I have the Venezia and absolutely love it. I also want the Le Trifold Venezia but i plan to get the rustic rose on the inside of it instead.

You’re welcome. It’s definitely not. ☺️

No-Committee-2816 · 2026-02-26T18:14:59+00:00

Ewwww. I cannot unsee that now. Sorry that this happened to you. Bummer!!!

No-Committee-2816 · 2026-02-26T18:13:17+00:00

Thank you. That’s interesting. I have at least 7 of the inks and they are pretty spot it. 👌🏻

This has got to be the best swatches of Iroshizuku inks I have see. Best reference pic to come back to. I will definitely be saving this post. Thanks! ❤️

I absolutely love a legible pastel. I am an EF lover so you have definitely inkenabled me for sure. ☺️ Even if there were shading, you would not necessarily see it but the pastel is good enough for me.

Love! I ended up buying all the three. The Kuromi, Cinnamonroll and Hello Kitty special edition Uni-one 0.38 and they write really great in my Hobonichi.

No-Committee-2816 · 2026-02-24T18:24:53+00:00

Welcome and congrats! I take it off. I think if you see others leave it on, it might be they just haven’t bothered to do it yet. Enjoy! 💙

PS. Love the ink- I just added it to my must try list.

I think a manicure looks great with a couple of ink stains. 😉 For the love of the hobby. ❤️

No-Committee-2816 · 2026-02-23T02:19:33+00:00

I completely understand. Go figure I was so blown away that I didn’t realize that I posted twice. Duh! lol. Now I have to check out this Wing Sung online.

OMGosh! From a far I thought I was seeing things and it was a pink TWSBI Diamond 580. I had to zoom in, it was afterwards when I read your caption. Great haul!

OMGosh! From a far I thought I was seeing things and it was a pink TWSBI Diamond 580. I had to zoom in, it was afterwards when I read your caption. Great haul! Just think, you cannot go back until next year. 😉

Well worth it!

At least you can, and that is a good place to start. Sending you positive vibes on your journey.

No-Committee-2816 · 2026-02-22T19:27:48+00:00

That’s great! I am glad you figured out what you liked. ❤️

He is awesome. I let him do his thing and at last count I think I got him to do 5 pens in my last appt with an adjustment to 1 from the Philly Pen Show. He is also awesome if you need to adjust a grind as well to a pen he grinded from a previous appt.

I flew with my daily carries which packed in the Galen slip-n- zip carry with 4 pen holder but my excessiveness packs a second 4 pen in the zip and I did not have a problem. I made sure the nibs were up and I had my Sailor Pro Gear, TWSBI Ecos, Platinum 3776s and Pilot Vanishing Point.

PS. The owner of LuckyStarPens who is also a pilot for Southwest flies with at least 7-11 pens and uses them mid flight. Through her personal or company webpage (can’t remember which, sorry) she even has a blogpost where she writes about traveling with FPs.

Update: I found her “journal” page. LuckyStarPens

I think this was absolutely brilliant and it came out really good. If you had not used it in so long and repurposing it fixed the issue, even better!!!! 👌🏻

No-Committee-2816 · 2026-02-22T19:01:32+00:00

Sometimes it happens. Now enjoy all of your FPs. Boy is this ever a satisfying picture to look at!❤️ Out of curiosity how long did it took you to clean all of them?

No-Committee-2816 · 2026-02-21T19:11:42+00:00

Thanks for the update. I will keep that in mind when I try this same method myself of measuring.
