This is a thing. A thing that I want.

That redefines "sweet" in ways that have yet to be understood by man.

I suspect that writing with that pen would feel very wrong.

It looks like a pencil and leaves a permanent mark? oh man. I could 'ink' my stuff and still have that distinct sketchy pencilly look... oh wow.

when I have the money to throw around, I just might have to do this.

In related news, I'm beginning to believe we were separated at birth.

The fact that they are out of stock burns me like fire.

Out of metal?

[prodigal.livejournal.com]

The Soylent Pen line was a flop, so metal's all they use anymore.

I'm sure that, like all other cool pens and pen-like items I have owned, I would lose this forever in about two days.

Still: want.

My father has one of those! Or something very much like it. He got it when he was in, I think, Singapore during a stopover when he was in the Navy. (This was during the Korean war).
It's got an ivory handle and solid metal tip, and does write on paper, though not very well.

I always thought it was some wierd style of dipping pen, though it doesn't have any slots to hold ink or anything. The tip is a very dark metal. He doesn't even know what it really is, he just bought it at a curio shop because the handle was carved very prettily.

Oooooh. Lust, lust, lust.

1. That is indeed a superior pen.
2. Unrelated to this entry: you utter, utter bastard. Do you know how long it is going to take me to read the entire Narbonic archive? This is all your fault.

That is sexy.
They need to get some stock in, like, now!

The first time I ever heard of silverpoint drawing was after seeing John J. Muth's adaptation of Fritz Lang's "M"... The understanding from my art teacher was that the drawings will continue to change and tarnish as they age. God, I'd love to get my hand on a page from that book.

Fascinating. I wanted to get into a silver point a couple of years ago but never did because of the preparation you had to do with the paper. See http://silverpointweb.com/ (http://silverpointweb.com/). I wonder what sort of metal composite this new pen is made of. Maybe there is an alternative that could be used instead.
