The adjustable 3 pen pouch by galen is based off of the Piquadro Nikolai cases that were very popular in the 90s and have been unavailable for many years. I am glad to see someone revive the design. You will often see Sarj post photos of pens resting on his Piquadro Case. Thank for the video.

Mmmm tacos 🌮 and pens 🖊️…

That Kilk and Urushi of India red pen 🤩 are my faves you plucked. Normally a huge fan of Leonardo’s but the blue textured one is strangely so basic looking- surprised you snagged it. Great video— glad you enjoyed your time in DC / Falls Church!

I sent you my thanks your presentation at the DC Show. Now, Dropping a note here to comment on the Platinum pen I received from the presenter of the Fountain Pen Informational Seminar at the DC Pen Show. The (M) nib on the Platinum fountain pen is amazing. I keep writing things just to experience what I have never known when using other nibs. It feels like this nib is floating above the page and laying down ink so beautifully. Wish I knew who to thank for this gift from the Show.

Thank you for taking the time to share your trip with us David! Much appreciated from a fan on the west coast.

What I enjoy: a straightforward, informational "haul" video with enough information to intrigue anticipating future presentations but not so much detail as to bore with a too lengthy video. The focus on pens, cases and ink without stickers, etc. is welcomed. I, too, have been intrigued by Maverick layered resin pens. Gem encrusted pens don't cause me to vibrate with desire as I feel it was produced only to attract those who enjoy the price more than the artistry or function.

Thank you thank you thank you. Times 10! You have given me the opportunity (almost) to have actually attended the DC show! I would love to have all the pens you previewed with two big exceptions. I am not a fan of Esterbrook, which markets and prices their offerings as if they were somehow luxury items. In my opinion, no Easterbrook (now, the reincarnated brand) is worth more than US$120 (I am being conservative here; I'd rather say no more than US$90) including the one you show. Also, I wouldn't buy the pretty guilloche (that's what it is called) Leonardo at any price (seriously, not even for US$50) with its brand name emblazoned on the grip. Of course, just my personal opinion. 🤓

Great recap! I enjoyed this, rather than the “walk through” videos. Thank you so much!

Thanks for doing this one. Wow, looking forward to seeing all these pens in detail. Not an ugly one in the bunch.

Hello David, lovely overview! the purse thing is called a tote bag by most folks who make them, to the best of my knowledge.

Very nice recap. I am especially interested in the HIR. I can't wait for the reviews.

If you ever come to Asheville, David, you should definitely try Taco Temple...our own little HITW. 😊

The clip on that Desiderata looks like a fixture you'd see on a boat, especially the way it comes out of the cap. And then that Mythic looks so Art Déco, even more so than its Duofold inspiration.

That Mythic pen is sinking some hooks in me. Putting down a deposit on something with a long lead time isn't usually my thing, but I'm seriously considering it for that one.

That 3d dragon was amazing, it was Quetzalcoatl isn't?
