== Quaker Pen ==


'''Myke Hurley:''' And what she sent me was the Quaker. Mm-hmm. Right? So that style. She doesn't like the cap, but she likes the whole thing that is simple. Right. And matte plastic. She likes them more. Then shiny plastic. Hence the Metropolitan, right? Mm-hmm. She then sent me some other pen I've never seen in my life, so I will forget about that. It's labeled Pocket Founding Pen. She was on Pinterest, basically. Gotcha. Then she said something funky. She likes funky. Mm-hmm. And so she sent me a link to the Pelican Twist.

'''Myke Hurley:''' You familiar with this?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' No. Yeah.

'''Myke Hurley:''' It's a very strange-looking pen. It's one of those learn-to-write fountain pens.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' That's kind of what I was thinking it was, but I can't picture it.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yep. I'll put it in the show notes. But this thing is like $10.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Mm-hmm.

'''Myke Hurley:''' It's exactly like that one that you were showing me last week, or showing us. Like, this show is just me and you.

'''Myke Hurley:''' This is just our conversation. What was the name of that one that we were looking at? I don't even remember. Do you remember? It was like the colorful one with the smiley face on it. Oh, oh, oh, yeah. The Kakuno. The Kakuno, yeah. Love that. Yeah. So that was one thing that I forgot to mention. Likes quite funky designs as well. Okay. Gotcha. Just because I don't have anything like that.

'''Myke Hurley:''' What else do we have here? Maybe something girly and charming. Do you know what she sent me? What? A Nakaya. Oh, gosh.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, dream on. You can carry on down that little route. Oof. And she said, and I also like nibs like this that are beautiful to look at. Do you know what she sent me?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Mont Blanc.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Pelican M1000.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Oh, Lord. Yeah, that's a similar looking nib. That's huge. Beautiful, beautiful nib. Yep. Crazy.

'''Myke Hurley:''' That's good.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' That's good. She knows what she likes.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, that's more around design. Clearly, she's picking good stuff. Yep. That's funny. So, yeah, I'm probably going to get this Plumix. Let's see if it's on Colt pens because I'll just throw that in a cart along with this Pelican thing. Yep. So I can see what she thinks of those.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Plumix.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah, the nibs are really easy to change.

'''Myke Hurley:''' No, it's not on Colt pens.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' And you can get some funky Metropolitan barrels now, too. They've come out with more than the gold, silver, and black. Yeah, they're not. They've come out with white and purple and patterns and things like that.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, well. Maybe that's the ticket. They're not that exciting, though. They just changed the...

'''Brad Dowdy:''' No, no, no. Not for me. I'm just saying they just have more... A wider range now than the ones that when they first came out with. That might be Upper Alley.

'''Myke Hurley:''' So I can get... If I grab the...
