Fountain Pens Meet Micarta: A Match Made in Heaven
In this video, I was able to snag a Skogsy pen that was available between the San Francisco Pen Show and when he listed remaining stock on his website. I have wanted to add a micarta pen to my collection, and this was a perfect fit. I picked up a reddish orange canvas pen in the 14mm model. This is a larger diameter pen which I tend to prefer, so this ended up being a perfect match for my writing and the way I prefer to hold my pens.
The craftsmanship of this pen is second to none, and when paired with the EF nib with custom cactus engraving and the single pen Rickshaw sleeve, this was just a win all around. I paired this pen with some Akkerman Dutch Masters Vermeer ink, and it is a great combination.
I show a writing sample on some iroful paper and I can say, the nib came perfectly tuned from the start. I look forward to getting to sit down and use this for some extended writing as soon as I am able.
