The Kuro Tamenuri Nakaya Decapod is the pen that convinced me that we needed to bring these pens to the English speaking world. Click here to see it.

 

This Sailor Sapporo is so pretty. Really a great color. Not deep enough to be purple, not light enough to be lavender. Ah… just right! And you can’t go wrong with a Sailor nib.

 
Nakaya Long Cigar Aka tamenuri I love the Nakaya Long Cigar model in Aka-Tamenuri for its deep rich color. It has a great balance and tactile feel. You don't have to post the cap to get the great balance. Mine has a custom cursive italic nib made from a single-tone double-broad size.
 
Nakaya Portable Cigar Heki tamenuri I love this Nakaya Portable Cigar Heki-tamenuri! The elegant shape complements the finish and makes this pen a pure beauty. I love the medium soft nib with added flex. Along with a bit of John's magic to make it buttery smooth it keeps up with my fast writing. I am in heaven.
 
Sailor 1911 Rhodium and Black I like the simple elegance of the rhodium and black on the Sailor 1911. The broad nib is very smooth and writes very nicely. This is one of the best pens I've used in the shop.
 
Pilot Namiki Falcon Resin I prefer the Namiki Falcon black resin because I am a man of the people. I believe even members of the working class should be able to afford a quality fountain pen. Its soft flexible nib allows you to eschew authoritarian notions of conformity and gives your writing the line-width variation it deserves.
