The pen looks stunning! The nib looks minuscule compared to the size of the pen. I am going to buy either Danitrio or ShiZen, I do not like small nibs. This video was very helpful!

@@PenultimateDave I know. The Miyabi Empress is a VERY girthy pen the nib is long enough but compared to the pen looks too thin. Don't get me wrong THE EMPRESS is a GORGEOUS PEN under the right circumstances I would buy it too but before I buy one of those I would rather have a Danitrio Sho-Genkai in purple or something like that.

Could you please tell where you purchased this pen or put a link. I didn’t understand when you said the name of where you bought it. Thanks

I purchased it second hand from Chris at truphaeinc.com as he sometimes gets consignments to sell.

This has become one of the favorite pens in my collection. My one quibble is that when a pen hits four-figures, I would expect the threads to be lacquered as well. Now, let me convert all those measurements to American for you…😄

Yeah I do think that's a common complaint about non Nakaya urushi pens, lack of lacquer on threads.
