Unboxing the Diplomat Viper and a new Sailor ink from Atlas Stationery!

[@sailcat9]

The Viper is an attractive pen. I hope it performs as nicely as it looks!

[@Sonicman415]

Gorgeous pen.. I’ll be visiting Atlas in early January 😁

[@davidottman9501]

Thanks Mike! That orange-ish ink looks great! Looking forward to seeing your opinions on the pen after you've used it a bit. It's funny that you are collecting black snakeskin pens. hahaha!

[@janscott9151]

Oh Mike, another ink ordered! You are such a bad influence but that afternoon tea looks gorgeous.

[@managingmarlys]

There is a sailor dromgooles exclusive in color Apricot. Orange as well

[@MarshaLove0723]

Take a shot of your favorite beverage, every time Mike says "interesting". 😏 🫶🏾

[@Calcprof]

Interesting pen and ink. Thank you.

Love the Viper, esp the Diplomat magnetized cap. Let us know if you hear from Diplomat why the shorter converter?

[@marilyngardner4269]

Hmmm... usually if people find a grip "kind of slippery," I find it very slippery. Probably not the pen for me. Thanks for the first look.

[@ruthfeiertag]

The converter looks Sheaffer-ish at the bottom? I’m not going to encourage you to disassemble the pen, but you do you. Please report back about the grip section after you’ve used it for a while! The Tra ink makes me want to go steep something. Maybe some chai.

I have a question that has nothing to do with this video lol. My wife is a teacher and she uses sticky notes a lot but the post-it notes are not FP friendly any suggestions on something that is ?

[@inkdependence]

Huh. That's weird. I use the recycled super sticky Post-It notes all the time and they're generally pretty good with FP. The bigger lined ones and the ones that are shaped like fun things aren't the same and they don't seem as good, but the regular ones have been fine. I think Midori makes some sticky notes that should be good, and I know Vanness had some that were good, but I can't recall who made them.

@@inkdependence, the MD Memo Block (500 sheets) has great FP-friendly paper. But it lacks the adhesive on the back to afix the sticky note to something.
