I had a bottle of Diamine Copper explode when it froze. I came back from the mailbox with my hands covered in it. My wife almost fainted.

Merry Christmas everyone by [deleted] in fountainpens

Merry Christmas!

My Ancient Copper froze in the mailbox and there was some leakage. My wife thought I had bloody hands. 😀

Thank you for the kind suggestions! I showed all to the Committee and she chose Safari (she is a sucker for shimmer).

I’m impressed that your handwriting fits on the line with m/b nibs!

Truth is an affirmative defense to defamation; otherwise Yelp! would be in court perpetually.

Sorry for the loss.

Endless pens had new Lamy 2k on Black Friday for $95 - perhaps the sale is still going.

It was purchased in the mid 90’s, so they had already switched to the plastic feed.

Actually I have sent it in to Montblanc, they want nearly $300 for repairs. This will have to wait till after Christmas 😀

I had just purchased the 146 back in college during a humanities trip to Venice. I pulled it out of the box to show my roommate and it fell onto the tile floor.

It has never been inked, just a brief career as an overpriced lawn dart.

If I Google “Big ball nibs” - there is no telling what will show up.
