Mr Peter Ford of MrPen very kindly sent me the complete lineup of 10 nibs he sells for the Churchman’s Prescriptor model. A very exciting opportunity to demonstrate how each of these nibs write.
Let’s talk about why anyone would want to use fountain pens in an increasingly digital age.
Let’s take a scientific approach to keeping our hobby interesting!
Let’s talk about how to get the most out of watching a fountain pen review.
A kind thank you to Alyssa from Nella Cucina who special ordered this bag for me and made sure I received it within a short time frame.
In 2013-2014 I did a series of weekly videos entitled The Inkcyclopedia. In every installment, I would show off an ink in quite some detail, using several nibs and doing a couple of tests with each ink.
I have decided to make this series of videos available on my own YouTube channel now, so that (new) viewers can watch them there. Bear in mind that these are older videos, so their quality is not that of more recent videos.
Enjoy, and find an index to all inks covered in the Inkcyclopedia here.
Let’s talk about the differences between using, accumulating, and collecting fountain pens, and why they are all fun endeavours.
In this video I discuss my opinion on fountain pens as an investment and the recent spike of interest in Arco celluloids.
Thank you to Alain for lending us this pen! I can say our feelings on pens sure have changed over time. We’ll have to do an updated version.Reviews, writing samples, and previous Serious Nibbage episodes can be found under the Pens, Paper, Ink menu!
