B)Medium nib

D)Although I own a couple of MB pens this beautiful piece would take my collection to an entirely different level. I think the color is amazing and I would welcome the opportunity to write with this pen.

Thanks for the great opportunity!

So I think you need to make a standard range selection.

if i win, i prob wouldn't mind paying the difference..

but to play by the rules:

1: Portable size Writer (With Clip) in Kuro-tamenuri (Black-Red)

2: fine (3)

3: clip

4: love the smooth finish of the lacquer and the subtle hint of color change.

but i would prob ask him to add the dragon image like the one i picked previously.. =)

[bkandj2000]

My selection:

(a) Nakaya Piccolo Black Hairline Finish Fountain Pen.

(b) Medium.

(c) Rhodium tip, rhodium nib. Nib mod: double-slit music for increased ink-flow.

(d) I admire the simple, yet classy styling of this model. It is an example of a sporty writing instrument being a gunmetal shade of gray, but also having just the right amount of understated elegance displayed in the overall matte texture. It would be a perfect compliment to my Rolex GMT IIc, stainless steel version.

Thank you for the opportunity to enter.

Kind Regards,

Blaine

(b) Nakaya nib, broad, 0.44-0.54 imprinted Nakata, made of solid 14K gold. Customised into a stub

Please note that this activity will be CLOSED in 24 hours from now.

So get in while you can, this is your last chance...........

Don't say I didn't tell you.................

This is a free activity.....................

That is all......................................

[vitix]

(a) Matte Briarwood Light with clip
(b) Super Extra Fine
(c) Two tone Nib
(d) i'm new in to the Fountain Pen, my dad gave me his old Montblank and i love it... i chose this one cause i love the way it looks and i know that with Nakaya it will be the best Pen i have ever writed with!!

[spuds]

I'd originally decided not to enter as I've not used a 'proper' pen in years but please disregard that Steve for the reason I've explained in (d):


a) Nakaya Long Fountain Pen Aka-tamenuri
(Long Cigar, no clip, dark reddish-red, with the painted "goldfish" converter)

b) Broad nib

c) For a right-handed writer.

d) My wife just saw me looking at the Nakaya website & she told me that she kept all my letters from way way WAY back when I was working away.... & that she loved the fact that I'd written them to her with a "real" pen. (It was a Parker Duofold).
I figure if I win this pen maybe I'll write her another letter thanking her for the last twenty three years she's put up with me!

Thanks for the opportunity Steve....

[bcarmenRolex]

I hope I'm not too late:

a) Matte Briarwood Light
b) Fine Nib
c)14K finish.
d)I really like a wood finish on Pens. It makes them seem historic. I used to have a fountain pen when I was a kid. I was facinated by them. I like the fine point for taking notes. The example looks great to me.

Pretty much make it look like the example in the Briarwood section.

[researcher]

I made it just in time:

a) Portable Writer (w/clip) Kuro- tamenuri (Black-Red)
b) Medium Nib
c) Rhodium color Nib and Clip
d) I really love the red undertone against the black pen. I think the rhodium color would look really nice instead of the gold color.

Thanks for this opportunity Steve.

[Bisquitlips]

I would love the:

(a) Portable Writer (With Clip) Heki-tamenuri (Brown-Green)
(b) BB Stub Nib which would be my customizations!
(c) Gold clip and two tone nib.

This pen is luscious in the extreme! Fantastic coloring and workmanship. This pen is ART!

YUM!!!

Wow... How did I miss that one?!?!

Will still stand by my original choice, though...

[Jimbits76]

Now the draw is closed, I just wanted to say that this is a fantastic prize and that the pens are truly stunning. The red/black of Steve's choice and the Briarwood gloss that Kyle picked are absolutely gorgeous writing instruments.

Good luck everybody.

Woo Hoo! I echo this sentiment toward the prize. It feels like an exclusive privilege to be considered with only about 73 others. Thanks Steve!
