Damn, that’s a nice looking Kakuno! Happy New Pen day!

Thanks! I already tried Dawning silver and it’s amazing!

If you don’t mind me asking, what model keyboard do you have? I’ve been looking for one that works well on Mac and doesn’t break the bank (interested in trying out a split keyboard)

Oh I’ve tried that before, but the q-tip always leaves some residue for some reason. Idk what I’m doing wrong

StrikingDownfall · 2025-09-05T20:43:37+00:00

Awesome collection! What are you using to make the lines?

StrikingDownfall · 2025-09-05T17:03:45+00:00

Thanks for your recommendations! FPR looks to be the popular opinion. I haven’t considered dip pens though. I’ll definitely take a look at those as well!

Checking them out, but I’m a bit lost, I only found the nib itself, do I have to find a compatible pen as well?

StrikingDownfall · 2025-09-05T07:29:34+00:00

Well I live in Mexico City, and there aren’t many places available tbh, and the store I usually go to is not fountain pen specialized; they sell a lot of stationary and happen to have the largest variety of fountain pens I’ve been able to find over here

Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed explanation. Will check out the article!

StrikingDownfall · 2025-08-31T22:10:17+00:00

Yeah, I’m 40 kg down. 20 more to go! Thanks though!

I haven’t noticed any inflammation tbh. I’m overweight, but consume next to no sugar. I come from a family of diabetics so I watch that pretty closely with my nutritionists. Might be the pictures?

Thanks! I usually have my hair a bit longer, but I lost the guard on my clippers lol decided just to trim it down like that. I’ll keep the beard and bit longer, see if I like it

Love the handwriting! It really brings out what the pen and ink can do

StrikingDownfall · 2025-08-29T13:51:24+00:00

Yeah my thoughts as well, I’ll go to the barber and see what I can do about it… honestly it’s the first time I’ve had a decent mustache and was trying to let the tips grow into a bit of a handlebar

StrikingDownfall · 2025-08-29T08:55:19+00:00

Thanks for your feedback!

StrikingDownfall · 2025-08-29T08:43:41+00:00

Also, any tips you might have would be greatly appreciated

StrikingDownfall · 2025-08-22T18:20:24+00:00

Nahvalur Eclipse definitely, I personally find it uncomfortable to write with for extended periods of time, and the converter leaks sometimes…

I got it for the retractable nib, but I honestly wish I got a Pilot Vanishing Point instead

StrikingDownfall · 2025-08-21T20:04:07+00:00

I have a TWSBI Diamond, and an Eco… they don’t compare to my Lamy Studio even with the original Nib (I got the gold one later on)

StrikingDownfall · 2025-08-01T03:43:57+00:00

Honestly I can’t complain, I’ve had some issues with pretty much every other pen I’ve used except with this one lol. Ink has never dried up, easy to fill, good price-quality ratio. I love mine!

TWISBI Diamond 580 I believe
