Some of the the JINHAO pens look really nice - might take a punt on one for the money.
I was thinking that myself, John.
I've ordered one of these Platinum Carbon pens from Cult Pens. It should turn up today or tomorrow, so I'll see how I get on with it. I ordered the converter to go with it. Obviously not a pen for carrying around, but I have a selection of Vectors for that. I wouldn't want to lose a good pen and I'm very good at losing pens.
I do think I need to go to a shop where they will let me try before I buy before spending a significant amount of money, though.

.... but they also do the ultra high-end pens hand painted in maki-e lacquer see http://www.lux-brand...enusa/makie.htm works of art rather than pens.

However, I got a Pilot V pen a couple of years ago, and I'm now using those frequently. Not much more than a cartridge at £3 each, they are cheap enough that I have several on the go with different coloured ink (black, blue and red generally).
That Sailor Chalana is beautiful. I may have to start saving.

There are some absolutely beautiful inks out there - I'm going to ransack the drawers for the convertor that came with my artpen and start investigating some.
Also enjoyed browsing your site, Gordon, although the pens are beyond my budget at the moment!
Looks like I've another hobby - Mrs Monkey will be thrilled...
Bought one - less than £12 inc postage, in fact it was nearly all postage. Looks quite good, if it ever arrives!
