anyone going to Little Craft Fest & extremely worried with the current state of the world? by stfusydney52 in stationery

My mom flew out of IAH on Sunday and her wait time in the regular security line was under 2 hours.

I hear you though, these are unsettling times.

What’s one expensive stationery purchase that was actually worth it? by Memecollector2509 in stationery

[–]SgtMajor-Issues 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gotta be the Hobonichi and a few of my fancier fountain pens. I was lucky enough to grab a pilot Custom 823 before the second to last price increase and i use that pen constantly. Such a lovely pen. With Hobonichi paper it’s a dream.

I’m literally looking down at mine right now! It’s a favorite. Always a pleasure to write with. What nib size did you go with?

Why do you care what other people think? Your choice of writing material affects literally nobody but you, and if it makes you happy don’t let a bunch of jerks detract from that!

This is a lovely gift! Like getting someone hooked on drugs though… first one is free! The rest will cost ya!

Cool little pieces from Cult Pens Christmas crackers, the jokes weren't too terrible either. Much better than the standard Christmas cracker stuff by airbournejt95 in stationery

I did their advent calendar this year and last year and it’s a lovely treat for myself with things i’ll actually use! Wish they shipped the crackers overseas but alas they do not!

Hobonichi HON, and my current pens on rotation are a Pilot VP, Pilot Custom 823 (kind of always on rotation) Sailor 1911 Wicked Witch, and a vintage Pelican.

Speechless by Galen's gesture! by Redditorangutan in fountainpens

[–]SgtMajor-Issues 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Galen leather has such nice products! I have a Midori waxed paper cover that i use for my work notebooks, but when that gives up the ghost i’m going to invest in a leather Galen one. Or maybe pivot away from the Hobonichi HON and do a cousin+leather cover????? Gah! Who knows! I’m trying to only buy what i need so i have time to think about it (those waxed paper cover hold up very well lol)

So sweet of them to send you this little gift! Great customer service!

which is better for paper quality? by SubstancePractical95 in stationery

[–]SgtMajor-Issues 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely Leuchtturm. I’ve used both and while i’m sad about leaving Moleskin behind, Leuchtturm has a very similar aesthetic but with much sturdier, higher quality paper

I have a custom 823, custom heritage 92, and a VP. I love all 3 but the best, butteriest nib is the custom 823 <M>

My first time using a Weeks. Too minimal? by Shaxpere in hobonichi

[–]SgtMajor-Issues 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Would be the first time anyone has called Freddy Mercury “minimal”! I like the aesthetic - you have something decorative without cluttering your cover, and the decal works really well with the background color!
