3952 Old Goat - NARUWAN Ebony High-Definition High-Gloss Edition Calligraphy Titanium Nib Series Fountain Pen

NARUWAN: 3952 Old Goat - Our Beautiful Homeland, Grand & Elegant Writing Model. Carefully selected ebony wood, processed with a high-definition, high-gloss surface technique. This high-definition, high-gloss finish involves repeatedly applying transparent lacquer and polishing until the pores formed by the wood grain over years are filled with lacquer, requiring dozens of repetitions of lacquering and polishing. The high-definition, high-gloss technique results in a smoother surface, enhancing the writing feel and making the exquisite wood grain appear more three-dimensional and distinct. It also makes the surface easier to maintain, protecting the wooden pen body from accidental ink stains. However, this technique incurs higher costs. Both the high-definition, high-gloss and non-high-definition, high-gloss finishes have their unique charm, and personal tastes vary. The Old Goat fountain pen is sincerely introduced, and your support is appreciated. The high-definition, high-gloss finish offers a luster akin to the wood trim inside a luxury car—highly reflective and with a particularly substantial feel. Most finishes on the market are simply polished or waxed, making this meticulous processing rare (natural grain, quality items shipped randomly). This fountain pen is complemented by gunmetal electroplated clips and metal accessories, featuring a barrel-shaped, airtight twist cap design and an exclusive, custom-molded clip with a special spring mechanism that makes it a joy to handle. This model is available with two nib options: the Standard Calligraphy Titanium Tip and the Special Calligraphy Titanium Tip. The Standard Calligraphy Titanium Tip uses a German Bock #250 (#6) standard titanium nib, which has been handcrafted and adjusted by Old Goat artisans to produce line variations reminiscent of a brush pen, offering a unique, more elastic feel than standard steel nibs. The Old Goat Special Calligraphy Titanium Tip (ground and adjusted from an EF nib) is a specially commissioned nib from the German manufacturer, model #250 (#6). It has been handcrafted and adjusted by Old Goat artisans to create a calligraphy nib with line variation, achieving a distinctive brush-like flourish. Compared to the standard version, it offers greater elasticity and allows for richer strokes. The nib is engraved with the 3952 Yushan characteristic LOGO, making it a collectible (This nib offers the best elasticity but may be challenging for beginners; it is recommended for those who have experience with calligraphy steel nibs or standard calligraphy titanium nibs as an upgrade). **Gift Set Includes: German SCHMIDT K2 Converter (inkless) + One Handmade Leather Pen Sleeve by a Taiwanese Master Craftsman (color and style shipped randomly) + 3952 Old Goat Wooden Pen Box Packaging.** Fountain Pen Dimensions: Total length approx. 154mm, body and grip section approx. 105mm, maximum diameter (excluding clip) approx. 17mm, total weight (excluding nib) approx. 47g. Hand-ground and Adjusted Calligraphy Nib: 1. For calligraphy nibs, it is recommended to start by dipping the nib in ink for writing (do not remove the converter installed in the barrel to prevent ink from flowing back into the pen body after writing). After a period of adjustment, use the converter for inking. 2. The calligraphy nib is an EF nib ground and adjusted to have a curved tip that produces line variation not solely through pressure, but by the angle of the pen hold, utilizing the nib’s curvature. Holding the pen more upright results in less contact area between the nib and paper, producing finer lines. Tilting the pen more or applying slight pressure increases the contact area, yielding thicker lines. Achieving line variation depends on your proficiency (each nib has a certain tolerance for pressure; avoid excessive force to prevent damage or misalignment. It is recommended to place a writing pad under the paper when writing). The Special Calligraphy Titanium Tip is a custom-made titanium nib requested by Old Goat from the German manufacturer, engraved with the 3952 Yushan LOGO. Its flexibility is softer than a standard titanium nib but can be less controllable. The soft, elastic nature of the special nib can lead to ink flow issues if too much pressure is applied with less-than-ideal technique. If the user's grip angle is off and pressure is applied, it can distort the ink channel, disrupting ink flow and causing skipping. Therefore, this nib is more elastic and less forgiving; it is recommended to first master writing with steel nibs or standard titanium nibs before advancing to the Special Calligraphy Titanium Tip. In response to environmental protection, paper bags are not provided proactively. If you require one for gifting, please specify in the order notes after placing your order. Thank you. Images are for reference only. The product is a single item. Some photos may have slight color differences due to lighting and angles; please refer to the actual product. Note: Regularly wipe and maintain the inside of the pen body and cap. When storing, do not let the nib face downwards for extended periods. Gentle Reminder: Avoid pressing down on the nib or writing with it skewed to the side (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 point, which can cause scratching and ink flow issues. The nib should be rinsed with clean water frequently to prevent ink blockage and maintain writing quality.
