Mike, you were the one who turned me on to getting a King of Pen. And I've never regretted the purchase. Thanks for doing what you do, and Happy New Year!
Snagged one of those Navalurs, too: 278/365, (B) nib. Love the look and feel, and despite being a great writer, I just ordered a couple of their replacement nibs i.e. a fine and a 1.1 stub to go with. Wishing you and yours a very Happy and Healthy New Year ... cheers!
Nice haul. I do wish the Nahvalur was in regular production. I love titanium pens and this would be perfect in my collection. The Leonardo is outstanding. .y only wish is that it came in the Momento Zero Grande size.
Nice haul. Bummer I went to order the Soda Cat washi but it was gone from the atlas website😢. Just received my KOP profit from endless and the medium monster nib is so smooth it is down right slick on the page.
As a fellow Texan I can relate to “plong-ur”-However, my naval history foray taught me the way to pronounce it, and you gotta flex some French muscles. Think of a beige plunger for the “Plongeur”, you gotta get those French muscles working: “plon-ZHUR” sorta sounds like the “g” in beige with the “eur” in voyeur, or better yet the _jure_ in de jure.
I love those Primary Manipulation resins. I got a full set of them from someone selling pens to raise money for tuition for her child going off to college. Sometimes In just take them out and admire them. So three pens? How is that excessive? It’s not bonkers at all. The spider agrees with me. Those are all pens worth having. And we know that you got them just so you could review them for us.
Can we get more ebonite feeds, Narwhal? I have quite a few Narwhals and I do always find them maybe a touch dry, as much as I like them. I would love an ebonite feed to make things maybe a bit wetter.
You know, I find the rest of the Nahvalur lineup to be dry, but my Nautilus pens have all been pretty great. It's really interesting that they went with ebonite on this one, and I do hope we see more of that.
Mike nice sailor,my 1911 large,is being repaired,my friend drop it on his display case and bent the nib,so Kirk spear in Colorado if can't be fix new nib 150.00 to replace it,frank in Oswego,ill
Awesome Haul! Sailor KoPs on my wishlist!

Oh, good! I'm glad you haven't regretted them! They feel like such a luxury to me, but I really like them.

Yes to both of these!
One KoP a year. That sounds like a VERY good plan.
Mike, can you do a review on that titanium' pen please?
I plan on it!
Just starting the vid.... but I always peel that beautiful Atlas sticker off the box & I put it in my journal.
Happy holidays! :-)

Wife found the soda cat tape and out of stock. Hope they get more!
I hope so, too!
Your Leonardo PM 4.5 looks SO MUCH BETTER THAN MINE! Ahhh, I am gutted.

Ugh. I always do bad things to French words until someone reminds me how their letters work. 😵💫
@ I’m definitely guilty of it too 😅

I DID get them for reviewing, but it still feels like an extravagance that I don't deserve, sometimes. Thanks for reassuring me. :-D

I'd bet he can fix it. I've seen folks like Mark Bacas fix nibs that look like someone tossed them in a garbage disposal.
I told Kirk Spears if you can't fix it you said it'll be about $150 to replace it in the I bought the pens at Goulet pens in 2017 over 300.00
Plongeur is French for diver. The g is soft pronounced a bit like zh.
