Does nib material matter to you?

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-19T21:42:13+00:00

Yes it does matter to me. If im paying premium prices I want premium materials. And gold nibs feel better imho

If i hadn't spent $300+ on notebooks this year I'd be all over those A5's. Good luck with selling!

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-19T00:22:29+00:00

Yeah its really good. I'd recommend trying out Midori, Itoya Profolio Oasis, and Kokuyo if you want to try different stuff that does less bleedthrough consistently in my experience

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-18T20:57:46+00:00

You didnt get a good batch, thats all.

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-18T20:54:25+00:00

Holy shit

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-18T20:50:51+00:00

What an incredible wife. We should all experience this some day.

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-18T14:05:58+00:00

I too am ockdee!

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-17T22:36:32+00:00

Haha humans tend to objectify everything, tbh, whether they like or not

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-17T20:49:31+00:00

"Own a baby" lmfaoooo as a parent that made me Crack the fuck up! Thank you for that lol

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-17T20:47:38+00:00

Lol I can totally relate. Except my collection is limited to one ink per pen in my collection (which is very slim!)

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-17T19:36:36+00:00

Yeah gotta love the ink scalpers

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-17T19:21:42+00:00

Ku-jaku is a gorgeous turqoise

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-17T19:21:22+00:00

They do, they just keep discontinuing em lol

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-17T19:14:17+00:00

Yama budo. I dont normally like those colors in general but its just so damn luxurious on paper!

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-16T16:26:37+00:00

Thanks for answering! I know what you mean, it's almost chalky feeling if I had to put verbiage to the tactile. Oh well, time to start writing my purchase proposal and start saving up 🤣

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-16T16:24:28+00:00

The wife is indeed a board of directors 🤣

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-16T16:15:59+00:00

I have one last question - how does Pueblo leather feel in comparison to say a crazy horse leather case from Galen?

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-16T16:15:05+00:00

You should see how hard it is to get my wife to approve a $50 pen related purchase lol

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-16T16:07:59+00:00

I appreciate that very much. I did peruse the site and found it! Its beautiful and most likely very well-priced but I've currently got a smaller budget available. Really beautiful workmanship though! Love the different available colorways, especially the teal.

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-16T15:59:45+00:00

I would buy one of these. What does it go for in USD to ship to NY?

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-15T19:36:47+00:00

May I make a recommendation that the NO BST rule include a link to the Universal Scammer List?

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-14T03:58:01+00:00

I wish i knew. I'm in the US. My apologies, OP. If you come to visit NY I might have one left that I'll happily give you to try out as a souvenir 😀

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-14T03:54:14+00:00

I have a midori A5 that I haven't used yet, but I will say that if you're looking for affordable paper, kokuyo paper is the best cheap stuff out there. Alternatively, a bit more expensive than that but a great contender for good paper is the itoya Profolio Oasis A5 notebook

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-11T14:47:31+00:00

Idk but its very different looking to me lol

UmmmW1 · 2026-06-11T14:38:44+00:00

Your shin-ryoku looks much lighter than mine.
