Your dad does exceptional work. He's not old at 73. He's a very vibrant in his prime man if he is capable of work like that.

And a writing test :-)
Nice calligraphy, I can only dream of being able to write like that !
Well this was a little odd...
Another Jinhao that I have *no* recollection of having ordered arrived the other day. It's an X450 and, like all the other Jinhao pens I have, is a really impressively nice pen. It has a nice weight, feels solidly made, and even has a wee bit of flex in the nib.
But what worries me is this: am I now buying things in my sleep?
i have at least 6 x450's and my only complaint is the locking mechanism for the lid, they seem to fail pretty easily, so now i have about 3 that the lids stay on, all i do is swap the nib etc into a working body, or if i am feeling really lazy i just put a working lid onto the body that has the ink colour i want loaded in.Quote:

i bought it for home, when it arrives i will have to decide on what ink to use, i have a bottle of parker blue ink, so i will probably use that.
So what you're saying is I need at least five more? :)Quote:
