big shout out to your product photographer, they make the pens and inks look fantastic. really well done sadly I don't have the funds to buy them all but believe me with the pictures taken I want too.
The finial for bamboo shoot is a bamboo shoot, chestnut has chestnut, gourd has a persimmon , persimmon has wild grapes, red bean has ancient rice, they are mix matching finials with limited inks they released with these pens.
I believe the Gourd pen has a symbol referring to the ink it comes with which is the plum! The persimmon pen probably also refers to the ink which is grape. :)
It's always a treat to see Drew. I place an order with Goulet every month. Drew's videos about the latest additions to the Goulet catalog help me agonize over what to buy next. I'm bragging - not complaining. 😸 Besides, Hemingway Jones can't say enough good things about Mr. Brown. Best wishes from Vermont 🍁
Greetings Drew, I’ve previously recorded quite long vlogs myself only to find that the auto-focus has been pulled by something and so the hunting does its thing. Thankfully it’s the quality of the content that matters to 99% of people! 👊
I think Sailor is pulling our legs. Either that or they just messed up. The ink that comes with the "persimmon" pen (that has the grapes on top) translates to grape. The ink that comes with the "gourd " pen (with the fruit on top) translates to Plum. I think maybe it was translation issue. Stunning pens though... my favourite Sailor release in a long time ❤
I loved the persimmon pen from Sailor.. I have bought too many Sailors this year, so I need to wait for the persimmon to find its way into my collection eventually ! Just when I thought I have had enough of Sailor, they find a way to draw me into this..again !
I guess when you hit 40 things get a bit blurry. 😉 The Irish green TWSBI is gorgeous. Do I really need another TWSBI? Of course I do. The Conklin Duragraph Demo is already on my wishlist. TWO ink calendars this year! I will never use up all the ink I have now, but they are so much fun to open and swatch.
Persimmon is stunning, the color of the cap is persimmon, but you're right though, that stamp on the cap really doesn't look like a persimmon. Maybe it's a bunch of lotus persimmons? Either way, sailor has outdone themselves with these collections.
I almost bought the Conklin Duragraph black matte demo pen 2 weeks ago but I ended up going with the Monteverde Ritma Espresso. Not mad about it but this will definitely be in my collection within a month or two ❤
I'd like a duel between the kaweco liliput and the traveller's fountain pens. I like how kaweco writes but I've been thinking in trying the traveler's...
That magnetic pen loop is better known as a bookmarked. With a journal that has no ribbon you can use it to mark your place. Or use it on an old fashioned (non digital) book to open to the last page when you put the book down.
Oh wow, I might finally have to make the plunge and get my first Sailor with Red Bean!! What kind of color is the ink that comes with it? What a pretty pen 😍
I can't justify buying the colorverse calendar. I'd like it better if it included less ink bottles and other products instead, like those interesting cards, or pen holders, pen loops, small notebooks or postcards, stamps, etc., or if it was cheaper and included smaller bottles. I was expecting wearingeul doing a calendar with smaller bottles (like 5 to 10ml), maybe combining it with swatching cards christmas inspired, and maybe for 25th day a glitter potion that you could combine with the rest of the inks. Thanks for the informative video Drew!
I did a deep dive on the Sailor website bc the mix-matching threw me off - VERY satisfying explanations and images 🍇🥥🌾 BTW takenoko (bamboo shoots) are big-deal tasty, as in get a shovel and basket/throw a foraging party tasty .
Drew; the cap finals match the picture on the ink bottle. However, why a peach like persimmon is called a gord, or a cluster of grapes is called persimmon is just a cruel joke by sailor to try and confuse you. ; )
The Sailor Manyo quintet is fantastic. Two of them, especially, jumped out at me straight away. I wish these were offered in the standard PG, instead of the PG Slim. I’m still not overly fond of the design aesthetic of Scribo pens. But I do own two Scribo Feel pens. The truly stellar 14k flex nibs alone make the pens essential (and completely worthy) purchases.
Found a use for it I bought a Parker Vector but almost immediately discarded it as it was too small for my hands , it felt fiddly and was consigned to the spares box My wife recently returned from a conference, they had given out some smart A6 notebooks 240 pages so useful It had a pen sleeve on the side, a test of my pens revealed none would fit Then I remembered the Parker, yes perfect fit an ideal pocket combo Reminded that everything has a place it’s just a question of discovery 😅
I want that ECO, and I am not generally a fan. I have come to appreciate my purple one, but I like the VAC700R a lot more. I am debating getting my hubby the new Fire and Dice. I got the first one for him and it is a great pen but he doesn't use pens much at all, especially at home. I don't need another Duragraph, I don't need another Duragraph, I don't need another Duragraph! I would love to see the Liliput in Brian's hands! I love chonky pens but he uses the Traveler's Brass pen so it must not be too small. I am impressed with your ability to sell the Amalfi when you aren't a fan. I can't decide if I like this or not. It has a lot going on and is very unique. I suspect if I had been to the Amalfi Coast that I would be obsessed. The theme seems to match the coast very well. I would grab one if it weren't so expensive. Trying to pinch my pennies for now. This new stuff is all so tempting!
Drew - stop!! My wallet can’t take any more! And I want at least three of the pens you highlighted! So now it’s nail biting time while I choose which ONE it’ll be. Arrgh!😬
At 1:45 Drew says the Retro 51 set is a "Fountain Pen and Pencil" set. Was that a slip of the tongue? I'm not seeing a fountain pen variant. Just the rollerball.
Not sure what's up with those Japanese translations. Another commenter sorted out "budō." I'll add that "sumomo" is a Japanese plum, not a gourd. As with the "budō" case, the medallion and ink box illustrations make sense, but the English translations don't.
I am fully convinced Esterbrook is deliberately not making button fillers from their colorful resins. If it is to emulate the rolex scheme, then curse you market research department

The camera missed focus on this one. The sign looks great, lol. I still watched the entire video and appreciate you guys!
Just when I thought I was out and had enough TWSBI Eco’s….Drew Brown pulls me back in. 😂
That Amalfi is stunning! My favorite color parings along with so many details! Exquisite. Can’t wait to get my hands on it, thanks.

My OCD is crying so hard
@@bestthingeverbyjennSame, my friend, same🥲

Those Sailor pens are gorgeous; I'm really fighting the urge to dive down the rabbit hole like I did their galaxy series 😂
I scooped one from Goulet. Only have one other Sailor but I love it! Now the hard part… waiting for it to arrive 😆

H. Jones’ channel. has grown on me. He has shown love (sincere!) to some of the “competition” of other ink-fluencers on RUclips. Classy.
and sadly you'll never see him again. He was let go, which is why they haven't been releasing new videos/pencasts
Drew repeatedly smelling the Back to the Land air freshener was hilarious!
All of the new releases are amazing 😮 my favorite is the red bean sailor, even though not a fan of purple
Im picking both advent calendars.

They really should do an Irish green and gold Eco. I like the black but the green flag has a gold harp on it.
I think Sailor is pulling our legs. Either that or they just messed up. The ink that comes with the "persimmon" pen (that has the grapes on top) translates to grape.

YAY! DnD Pencil… running to the shop to order 💸💰💸
That quirky leaf is calling my name 🍃 🍂
The plant themed sailors as well. I'm a forager and as a result have an adoration of plants.
I guess when you hit 40 things get a bit blurry. 😉 The Irish green TWSBI is gorgeous. Do I really need another TWSBI? Of course I do. The Conklin Duragraph Demo is already on my wishlist.

Hi Drew! Some really interesting pens this week! Almost too many to wrap my head around! Thanks for the rundown, and enjoy your weekend!
Very proud of Drew for not roasting that Amalfi the way he wanted to.
Quirky leaf by far has the best bonus gift
The Conklin is sooooooo gorgeous! 🤩 Thanks for the video!
I almost bought the Conklin Duragraph black matte demo pen 2 weeks ago but I ended up going with the Monteverde Ritma Espresso. Not mad about it but this will definitely be in my collection within a month or two ❤
I'd like a duel between the kaweco liliput and the traveller's fountain pens. I like how kaweco writes but I've been thinking in trying the traveler's...
Hi Drew! Sumomo is kind of Chinese plum and budo means grape. Like Yama budo~
That magnetic pen loop is better known as a bookmarked. With a journal that has no ribbon you can use it to mark your place. Or use it on an old fashioned (non digital) book to open to the last page when you put the book down.
I really like the new sailor pens. Colorways are up my alley. One day I’ll drop some money on a pen like that
Drew sniffing the air freshener free gift of the esterbrook incredible rock. lol 😂😅
OMG I laughed my head off when you were snarfing the Talisman Benu! bhahbhahaha I love you Drew!
Thanks Drew! So many beautiful pens get released too often.
Oh wow, I might finally have to make the plunge and get my first Sailor with Red Bean!! What kind of color is the ink that comes with it? What a pretty pen 😍
That one stole my heart! A real beauty ~~~
New Sailor pens are absolutely amazing!!!

The Sailor Manyo III sets are just gorgeous! I may have succumbed ... 😚
The Colorverse is more, but you get a fair amount more ink, a total of 360 ml vs 318ml. Only 24 days instead of 25 though, if that's important to you.
Gorgeous pens, Drew. Thanks!
I did a deep dive on the Sailor website bc the mix-matching threw me off - VERY satisfying explanations and images 🍇🥥🌾
BTW takenoko (bamboo shoots) are big-deal tasty, as in get a shovel and basket/throw a foraging party tasty .
I love kislux that on the butterfly bag it says auguri / tanti auguri which means happy birthday
That's ok, Drew, you it matches your lovely warm and fuzzy personality. ❤
That Conklin looks sick! Definitely going on my 'to-buy' list.
Those Scribos look gorgeous!
The Benu Talisman is, to me, meaningfully smaller than the Euphoria - The Goulet Pen Plaza is a good resource to compare!
Would love to see a fountain pen version of the fire and dice.
The "bud" is the actual bamboo shoot, purportedly one of the greatest tastes in the world.
Drew; the cap finals match the picture on the ink bottle.

Drew, we all have those out-of-focus days!
Lovely scribo pens!
Found a use for it
I bought a Parker Vector but almost immediately discarded it as it was too small for my hands , it felt fiddly and was consigned to the spares box
My wife recently returned from a conference, they had given out some smart A6 notebooks 240 pages so useful
It had a pen sleeve on the side, a test of my pens revealed none would fit
Then I remembered the Parker, yes perfect fit an ideal pocket combo
Reminded that everything has a place it’s just a question of discovery 😅
I bet Chestnut comes with brown ink because chestnuts are green on the outside and brown on the inside.
I have no idea why, but I feel like you and I could be best friends, Drew. Love your videos!
I want that ECO, and I am not generally a fan. I have come to appreciate my purple one, but I like the VAC700R a lot more.

"Whale, whale, whale."
Whale done sir.
thanks for the info.
Persimmons are excellent! Just make sure it's a ripe one. You'll regret it if you don't.
My sleep score was 84 today!!🤓
The new twsbi comes out on my birthday!!!
Does the Kaweko Liliput feel comfortable when writing for a long time?
Let’s be honest. Two ink calendars doesn’t give us a choice, it gives us 2x burden to buy.
Drew - stop!! My wallet can’t take any more! And I want at least three of the pens you highlighted! So now it’s nail biting time while I choose which ONE it’ll be. Arrgh!😬
Ha! That's the first time I've heard Drew use the words "beautiful" and "Amalfi" in the same sentence 😅
please bring back the original fire and dice pencil!!
I thought the red one would be persimmon, since it is a red fruit
does your website switch into CAD money at all? or does it only display in USD?
♥️
For reference...'sumomo' refers to a type of plum, and 'budō' refers to grapes
im not sure why the persimmon one is called that and not grapes lol 😅
At 1:45 Drew says the Retro 51 set is a "Fountain Pen and Pencil" set. Was that a slip of the tongue? I'm not seeing a fountain pen variant. Just the rollerball.
Are the special nibs restocking on the back to the land?
What are the differences between the Scribo Feel and La Dotta?? I've been wondering!
Back to the Land, legally distinct from Living With the Land????? 🤯 I want all of them.
I like the look of the Amalfi but the engravings seem a bit sloppy looking for a pen in this price range...
Will the Liliput fit in the travelers notebook pen holder without falling out?
I think the brown Estie could have used the green accents instead of the blue
Hi 😊
The whale Opus with the blue geometry looks like a cheap 50 cent gel pen
Not sure what's up with those Japanese translations. Another commenter sorted out "budō." I'll add that "sumomo" is a Japanese plum, not a gourd. As with the "budō" case, the medallion and ink box illustrations make sense, but the English translations don't.
Grapes is Japanese is budo. Grapes on the finial, grapes for the ink. No idea why its called persimmon...
This thumbnail is delicious like chocolate Tootsie pops 😋
The Opus 88 artwork seems a bit childish. Benu a handsome pen indeed! Lovely Esterbrook colours.
I am fully convinced Esterbrook is deliberately not making button fillers from their colorful resins. If it is to emulate the rolex scheme, then curse you market research department
damn man leave me alone-- your videos push my covetousness buttons
I appreciate your skillful nonsense in addressing sensibility to scents- though I am not stricken with such sensitivity. Now, with regards to your constant use of “blurple…” The color is indigo. Many of us have pointed this out to you in the past, which makes me think that you are intentionally forgetting (like “forgetting” that you carry the TWSBI Precision).
I like when they say Blurple…I keep forgetting what Indigo actually is (yes yes I know) and Blurple is just easier.
