'''Myke Hurley:''' It may have just been that exact thing because a lot of these are special editions for retailers or whatever. So it might have just been like, we'll let you do it, but you've got to choose from these standards. And they're like, well, why don't we just do one of all of them? But there's nothing. There's nothing like it's not bad looking.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' It's just it has a certain look than when you compare it to the last one you put in the list. None of which none of these I've seen before you put in the list. This one's called the Crimson. So this is a Pro Gear mini Crimson. So this is the the Sapporo, the old Sapporo style, which I love. This is outstanding. It's just a wild one, right? It's like, give me this pen. Like, this is like my Hello Kitty. Yep. Pen that I want.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, so it's like red body, like red demonstrator body, red finial on the body, red grip section, pink cap and red finial on the cap. I'm in like 100 percent. Do the Sapporo minis typically have the same size cap as a Pro Gear?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Okay.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' So I don't own one of these. It's just the barrel shorter. It's like a short barrel kind of cartridge only deal. Same nib size and same cap, but truncated barrel, if you will. So you can't get a converter in there. But the style is, it's just on it. Like this is a, this is a me pen right there out of this whole list. I mean, cucumber water looks pretty good. But when you're like comparing the price, I would rather pay 265 for a mini pen in this color way than 600 for the Rialo.

'''Myke Hurley:''' But this is one of those things where like, this is what I'm saying with pen selection. I think 265 is a great deal for this pen. Yes. Right. I have no, I have no problem with that. I think that is a very good price.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' So even though, even though, let me, let me say one thing, the sailor, like the Pro Gear and 1911 limited editions are priced more around their base level limited editions where the minis are priced very much higher than their minute editions. Does that make, does that make sense? Yeah. The price difference is, is like proportionally higher. From the base level. Yeah. Yeah.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Which is fine. Like I would totally pay that for this, this mini.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I think it's great. Penside, you still do have some just amazing king of pens on their website available.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' I'm not going to look because I hadn't seen any of these. And so we're going to say everything I just said about how much I love all these pens. One of the best looking ones right now is available at our good friend, Pen Chalet. And I want to talk about it once we talk about our ad here.
