3952 Old Mountain Goat - Dapeng Bay Golden Camphor Burl High-Definition, High-Gloss Version Two-Tone Calligraphy Nib Fountain Pen

Dapeng Bay: 3952 Old Mountain Goat - Named after a famous Taiwanese landmark, this is a special edition for grand writing. Carefully selected golden camphor burl, crafted from natural wood using a special technique, resulting in a dazzling, high-definition, high-gloss surface treatment. The high-definition, high-gloss finish involves repeatedly applying transparent lacquer and polishing until the pores formed over years in the wood grain are filled. This process requires dozens of applications of lacquer. This technique creates a smoother surface, offering a better feel when writing, and makes the exquisite wood grain more three-dimensional and clearly visible. It also makes the surface easier to maintain, protecting the wooden pen body from accidental ink stains. However, this finishing process incurs a higher cost. Both high-definition, high-gloss and standard finishes have their unique charm, catering to different tastes. Old Mountain Goat sincerely offers this fountain pen, and we thank you for your support. The high-definition, high-gloss finish resembles the luster of wood trim inside a luxury car, so polished it's mirror-like, with a particularly substantial feel. Most pens on the market are simply polished or waxed after being turned on a lathe; such meticulous treatment is exceptionally rare (natural grain, high-quality items shipped randomly). The pen is fitted with original brass hardware, plated in a gunmetal gray finish, featuring a twist-retracting airtight cap and a specially designed flexible clip. The nib is a German Bock #250 (#6) two-tone steel nib, meticulously hand-crafted by Old Mountain Goat artisans into a calligraphy nib capable of producing distinct thick and thin strokes, reminiscent of a brush pen. It offers tactile feedback, allowing for variations in line width for Chinese characters, enabling you to express your unique taste. **Gift Set Includes: German SCHMIDT K2 Converter (ink not included) + One handmade black genuine leather pen sleeve crafted by a Taiwanese master craftsman (style shipped randomly) + 3952 Old Mountain Goat wooden pen box packaging.** Dimensions: Barrel diameter 14.5mm, 144mm long with cap closed, 127mm long with cap off, cap diameter 14.5mm, cap length 64mm, total weight 45g, total length 150mm. Hand-ground and adjusted calligraphy nib: 1. For calligraphy nibs, it is recommended to first use an ink dipping method for writing (do not remove the converter installed in the pen barrel; this prevents ink backflow into the pen body after writing). This allows for familiarization with the nib's characteristics. After a period, use the converter for inking and writing. 2. The calligraphy nib is an EF nib that has been ground and adjusted to have a curved tip. Achieving line variation does not solely rely on pressing down; it is influenced by the angle of the pen holder. By utilizing the curvature of the nib's tip, you can create different line widths. Holding the pen at a more upright angle minimizes the contact area between the nib and the paper, resulting in finer lines. As the pen holder angle becomes more oblique or with slight pressure, the contact area increases, producing thicker lines. The ability to write with varying line widths depends on your proficiency (each nib has a certain degree of pressure it can withstand; avoid excessive force to prevent nib damage or misalignment. It is recommended to place a writing pad under the paper when writing). In response to environmental protection, paper bags are not proactively provided. If you require a gift bag, please specify this in the order remarks after placing your order. Thank you. Images are for reference only. The product is a single unit. Some photos may have slight color variations due to lighting and angles; the actual product is the standard. Note: Regularly wipe and maintain the inside of the pen body and cap. When storing, do not leave the nib facing downwards for extended periods. Warm Reminder: Avoid pressing down on the nib or writing with the nib off-center (for right-handed users, it is recommended to hold the pen so the nib points towards the 10 or 11 o'clock position). This prevents accidental misalignment of the iridium tip, which can cause scratching and ink flow interruption. The nib should be rinsed with clean water regularly to prevent ink buildup and blockages that could affect writing quality.
