Btw the topic of this thread is - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

Bite me.

What do you guys think about fountain pens? I'm thinking about picking up a Naminki maki-e.

Aren't they beautiful? A little pricey but not as much as a lambo.

Does the ink cost more than the pen? The consumables usually cost more than the item you bought.

After a few years of using the pen you might find the ink cost more than a lambo.

Oh yeah. If you buy the maki-e Namiki refills and you write more than 2 letters (2 pages double spaced) per week you're looking at a second mortgage for ink. They will accept a proprietary non-maki-e Namiki cartridge as well (which can double as a catheter if required). This cost around $2 each and it's the same ink.

I'm so glad you people are open to any discussion in here. It's harder to find someone to discuss fountain oens with than was for Bitcoin in 2013!!

Edit: just found out that the pilot con-70 converter might fit the Namiki so I could save on ink buy purchasing bottles.
