Stunned by a $7 Fountain Pen! [Pen ASMR]

[@StarOfArtemis]

I welcome every new video with open arms! I don't know what it is, but the "hey everybody" at the beginning of each one just feels like a warm hug.

[@justkelly2]

RelaxingASMR has a grandpa vibe that I love. Hobbies and warmth and comfort

[@fflow_wolff]

very comforting

[@NotChefCook]

It rly DOES !

[@brandonsweet1835]

Exactly!

[@kengsykeks9135]

Yeah 🔥

[@mse3700]

I've discovered that everything I see on the internet isn't always 100% true, so after all these years of you warning us of the dire consequences of spilling fountain pen ink, I tested it out (not intentionally). Well, it turns out you were right, the consequences are in fact quite dire. Thankfully, I was at my sisters house at the time. We're not currently on speaking terms.

[@MentalWanderings]

LOL, poor guy. Hopefully your sister forgives you.

The fact you’ve done this for 10+ years is amazing. You, sir are a trooper.

The first video I saw from him was 9 years ago. It was the Vladimir Putin Fountain Pen. With the green ink and sharpen the knife.

[@B3_6]

I love his videos!!

[@Angry_Toe]

Retroactively watching. I hope the reverence for your wife you showed in so many videos gives you comfort. You clearly showed her love throughout her life. I know she appreciated it, and it made her life better. Best of luck in your healing journey and I hope you treasure the little owl.

[@wyattwilliams3641]

Ive stuck around since i saw the catfish drawing video yearsss ago. i haven't seen every video but i always find myself coming back at times when i need to relax and just want to say thank you!!

[@MPHshoots]

Felt this

[@econ347]

There are people, that treat weapons/explosives with less care than you do with fountain pen ink

[@prodoommania4157]

You know I’ve been watching your videos for over 10 years now through various KZbin accounts and it has occurred to me that I’ve never (or rarely) commented. I just wanted to say thank you so much. You’ve inspired me to use fountain pens from day one and many years later highly value the experience. Plus I generally always have one of your videos in the background while I write. You have a positive impact on my life and I look forward to watching your channel every night when I’m unwinding. Thank you again. To this day I am very happy you continue to create content. Have a great day.

[@TheSpoonDeLauro]

As usual, wonderfully relaxing video! As for audio processing, I say that less is more in asmr. Even if your room has some background noise, using gates and noise reduction can often make huge difference with only a little bit in the mix. You want to feel as immersed as possible and sometimes background noise is just part of that!

[@PeakeOfficial]

Yes, I love the audio in this one. The tiny bit of white noise in the background actually helps silence my tinnitus kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZTZZpl9h5mUmbs

[@StarOfArtemis]

yes. asmr takes much less effort than some put in, Rasmr is just enjoying talking about and showing us his interests and hobbies in a soothing manner, that's why he's good. no mic tapping, hand rubbing or whatever else people do.

[@sofiastar2933]

i agree. yanghaiying is a great 'underground' asmr channel, nothing is edited or try to be asmr its just natural

[@sandnessmj]

So glad to see you back! I gave some of your older vids a few extra views the past few weeks…

[@FactsASMR1]

Same here, I especially love the Christmas catalogue videos in 3 parts.

[@RD-dd9ol]

Aw, I thought the cards were going to be opened in this video! Now I can’t wait for the next one. All your sports card videos are my favorites

[@nike12000haha]

Those cards were a tease at the end!! :) cant wait for the next video!

[@ElectronicAdventurer]

You introduced me to ASMR when I got recommended your video of drawing a catfish. Years later, you’re still very much my favorite asmr’tist. Love the videos, thanks for all the entertainment and relaxation. Cheers

[@RelaxingASMR]

Thank you for saying that. I appreciate it:)

[@heli0ns]

This was the perfect video to arrive upon after an exhausting weekend. Thank you so much.

[@CurtisUI]

Anybody else having a difficult time relaxing because of the anticipation for the next video? I still have some unopened baseball and basketball cards from the same era and I want to see what he opens. Sometimes if I am feeling down, I will open a random pack. The memories of the players come flooding back (endorphin release?) and it just seems to make the sadness go away. It’s oddly similar to watching these videos because I enjoy learning and I feel like I am listening to my favorite uncle. I hope all is well with your family and you are sincerely amazing. Btw, I obviously can’t be sure by watching the video, but as an educated guess I would say that your wife’s owl might have been carved out of a feldspar or variation. Quartz is a pretty hard mineral and not easy to carve because the crystals can shatter like glass, but that doesn’t mean that it’s not quartz. It’s just the color where the paint has worn off reminds me of dolomite or labradorite. Lol, I got a degree in geoscience about twenty years ago that I never used so my memory is probably a little off. Anyway, great video and I look forward to more of them. 😃

[@verite]

This is the video version of putting on your favorite cozy cardigan.

So little to feel relaxed about presently, thanks for being there.

This breaks my heart. So so sad. I am sorry for what you were going through this time last year. I also was going through impending loss at that time. ❤

[@RelaxingASMR]

Thank you. I hope things are better for you these days.

[@marysmusicaljourney2.0]

Yessss. After a 2 hour drive in the rain, this is a perfect wind down. All my love to you and your wife!❤️ hope you are both doing well!

[@remickstreetmusicinc.6931]

Live your pen ASMR and the baseball cards that stick together but my favorite is the stamp video #1 with the tweezers. That video is my favorite of any I have in my rotation. Hope you do another. You are goat of Asmr. Keep up the great work! I am a vet with ptsd and these videos are a savior to me some days.

[@FactsASMR1]

Love your content so much, welcome back ⭐

[@venusboys3]

Ahhhh... just what I needed today. Calming balm for my frayed temperament. Also, nice pens!

[@alexnightshade7030]

It’s always a pleasure to see another fountain pen video

[@debpaynepurnell6131]

I love these pens as much as my other mid range pens. Great writers.

[@smokymtpotpourri4760]

You've outdone yourself on this one Praveen!! I had saw a few clips of things presented here in your YT shorts or other videos, but presenting all of this information together, as you've done here, is truly REMARKABLE!! & it blows the mind in regards to "what we *thought we knew" about our history. Mind-blowing, though not surprising, coming from you!...because MOST of your videos have that effect. 😄 Keep being AMAZING, as you, quite casually, bring the world JAW-DROPPING lost history! We ❤ you Praveen!

[@Username35345]

Hope all is well with the family. I’m looking at buying a Lamy here in the near future because of you! Thank you for the vid, it’s much appreciated.

[@lordmegatron65]

This was wonderful! Thank you so much! I love your ASMR! 😊👍

[@EternalNyappy]

I want you to know that instead of falling asleep to your fountain pen videos, me, a 27yo non-binary person from Finland, watch through the whole thing, immersed. I found some local suppliers that stock and know stuff about re-fillable fountain pens. I am genuinely so happy that I came across your videos and found a new interest! I have a few fountain pens and I am so glad I was able to save one really old one from my granpa's old stuff 😍 it is muted green Parker, and I think it is from the 70's (at least because my granpa got it as a gift then)

[@Vwakeup]

I really like your owl too, it's pretty neat ^^

[@killva6903]

Exactly what got me started on your channel

[@audionmusic2787]

I am an audio engineer. Audio suggestions: EQ. ~3000 Hz cut 3 dB, Q=0.5 This will make the sound less brittle and crispy. More mellow tones for your voice without making it dull.

[@aquariusnymph]

My brain literally melted from the noise with glass on glass . Please please do an entire video on it, I found my new trigger!

[@MrFredstt]

Wow that Orange/black pen is gorgeous

[@Lord_Shmesh_The_Squishy]

This was an amazing watch. I absolutely love your penmenship!

[@codyedgington6852]

Never get tired of your talking. You deff have a gentle soft voice that shows your age and wisdom. Exactly how old are you? Rude to ask, but I assumed mid to late 60s?

[@LimaSierra114]

If you were to do a video on that tap of that glass alone my brain would be thrilled for one :) proper ASMR tingles. Also, since finding your channel I, like I think many others in this comment section, have purchased one of the fountain pens you recommended... Your love of them is infectious!

[@pluginseth]

May have just dropped $60 on a few pens and ink set. Been experimenting with fine line markers and soft tip brush pens, and I finally took the plunge.

[@NarutoIkari]

I love your fountain pen videos. I've been kind of curious though, do you plan to make another pen log video, Where you measure and weigh the pens. To be honest the first one you made almost 10 years ago, was the first video of yours I ever saw back when it was new. In small groups

[@RelaxingASMR]

10 years ago! Seems like only a moment ago. Measuring and weighing a pen isn't an unusual thing for me to do, so yeah, I imagine there will more of that sometime. Thanks for commenting:)

[@YourFreeBeats]

I have always had an interest in writing Pens (we are similar in age). The problem is I am left-handed. For those that don’t u understand, we are extremely limited on the pens we can use due to our hand being on the trailing side when we write. Thus a lot (if not most) inks are easily smeared by our hands. :-(

[@matthewperez2024]

I really need another hvac video 😫🥲

[@me414429]

Love the video as always! But as a couple others have mentioned, it appears the audio of this video may have something wrong with it.

rly? 7 bucks for the both of them??! What a catch, as a long time fountain pen user myself I tip my hat to that :D (I'm just the same old same old, Lamy german guy....but I'd like to grab me one of those) great find

[@asmrcascade5629]

Have you ever read any of Jonathan Steinberg’s books on fountain pens? I like his other books but curious if his fountain pen books are popular with collectors.

[@RelaxingASMR]

No, can't say that I have. I only have one decent book on fountain pens and it's by Paul Erano. I'll keep an eye out for Steinberg's books now that I know about them. Thanks!

[@AJKlos]

If you like these types of pens. May I suggest a Wing Sung 601A? Tubular nib is nice
