      2. @hakui This pen is so bad, so I would consider switching to a good dip pen a blessing. But it seems, that nobody in Europe makes oblique pen holders with flexible brass part and not even import them(!), so I’ll probably resort to making my own. Not like that kiwi from a coca-cola can tied with rope, but not a garnish one either. The hardest part would be findind a firm piece of wood and making the stick balanced.

        To be honest, they sell plastic oblique Speedballs here, but I don’t want to suffer again because of a $3 pen.

        1. @tijagi how important is the holder for the pen overall? i'd assume it would mostly be the nib..

            1. @hakui Since you already went to sleep and I may not be here, when you read this, here’s the article: https://thepostmansknock.com/oblique-pen-holders-artisan-pen-giveaway/ (I already knew everything from this article before I found it, but I just like how the material is stated here).
