The one that particularly interest me is the M815 Metal Striped Blue. The design of this pen is simply gorgeous. In particular, the silverish stripes contrasted beautifully with the blue barrel, bringing both style and finesse to one's hands as this pen glides gracefully across the paper when writing.  Internal to the pen is a brass base which adds extra weight to the instrument, for those who like their writing tool to be a bit on the heftier side.

Pen Shows I am attending in 2025

Being a relative "newbie" in the world of Fountain Pens, I had previously only attended a Pen Show once. This was the Tool Internal Pen Show in November 2024. This year, I have two Pen Shows in my calendar schedule. The first will be the Malaysia International Pen Show to be held in Kuala Lumpur on the last weekend of September while the second will be the Singapore International Pen Show to be held in my home city on the last weekend of November. In-between these two Pen Shows, Pelikan Hub is scheduled for the last friday of October. While I will need to give this year's Pelikan Hub a miss due to my work schedule, I will be attending both the Malaysia and Singapore Pen Shows. My air tickets and accommodation for the Malaysia Pen Show have been booked and I am all ready! TWSBI Eco
