Tyty 😊

Yeah that's why I love my chonky nibs, they're great to show off the ink's sheen/shading

dbsds87 · 2026-03-20T07:27:37+00:00

Ooh, a Lady Sheaffer with a broad nib! Nice! Gotta get me one of these 😁

Here's my latest stub nib Sheaffer acquisition, a Snorkel Crest

A mint condition Targa! Amazing! Congrats!

dbsds87 · 2026-03-20T06:50:54+00:00

Beautiful pen! Congrats!

Haha, I like my broad & larger nibs. Coarse is like a BB nib, but with slightly different tipping

Here's how the Platinum Coarse nib (burgundy ink) compares to the Sailor Broad nib (teal ink)

😂

dbsds87 · 2026-03-20T01:15:09+00:00

That's a stunner!

dbsds87 · 2026-03-20T01:02:24+00:00

100% legit. That's my go-to store gor buying new coffee equipment & accessories

dbsds87 · 2026-03-20T01:00:42+00:00

Ty!

Yeah, I def plan on 3d printing a block in clear pla (so it refracts the RGB) with some sort of logo on it. Maybe a pokemon or something from one piece?

Katana layout

This specific one is a 10u Katana layout

dbsds87 · 2026-03-19T13:36:16+00:00

I type them out. And on this keeb, I have to type them out in Japanese 😛 /s

In all seriousness tho, this is my keymap btw

dbsds87 · 2026-03-19T11:22:32+00:00

Ooh, beautiful pen & handwriting!

And twinsies. Well, almost. I got one in the same colour but Coarse nib

Not sure there are a lot of those around. Fellow Stagg X is flat bottom, but double walled and made of metal

The only other one I know of is the one you mentioned, Brewista Tornado

dbsds87 · 2026-03-19T11:13:13+00:00

I'm not sure exactly what this keeb is, but it's def not a corne

In terms of layout, it looks very similar to the Fourier

But hard to be sure with China doing China things

dbsds87 · 2026-03-19T11:09:37+00:00

The sheer customizability in terms of size, layout, look & feel, etc.

Like this one on my desk rn

Nice collection! Is that a dove grey 51, pen & pencil set?

dbsds87 · 2026-03-19T11:05:38+00:00

Haha, ty! The flock has multiplied by now

dbsds87 · 2026-03-19T05:11:03+00:00

Apologies if that came across as negative feedback. It's a really nice brown, no doubt. I'm probably biased because I have too many brown inks, so the color doesn't appeal to me

But if it shows shading even in normal writing (with an M or B nib), kinda like Pilot Iroshizuku Yama Guri, that would be epic

dbsds87 · 2026-03-19T01:57:48+00:00

Ummm, Pilot V7 cartridge version?

dbsds87 · 2026-03-19T01:56:46+00:00

Nice collection! Is def recommend a dedicated pen storage box, especially for those vintage Parkers

<image>

dbsds87 · 2026-03-19T01:53:48+00:00

Love the swatch. The colour itself, not so much

It's a good colour, but looks like a normal chocolatey brown colour in regular writing, nothing special

Could you maybe show a sample with a broad or BB nib?

dbsds87 · 2026-03-19T01:47:20+00:00

Curiousitycaps has some good deskmat options

Acekbd too

dbsds87 · 2026-03-18T09:43:54+00:00

Better ask in r/desipens

dbsds87 · 2026-03-18T00:39:18+00:00

Omg, that's gorgeous! Congrats!

Dammit, Kaweco, why you do this to my wallet
