Headed to Tokyo. Recs for Nakaya or other Fps?
 
I'm looking to purchase a Nakaya as a gift to myself. I have a few MBs but would like to venture off to another brand and it seems like Nakaya is well regarded here.

Any recs on specific models? I have EF and B nibs already from MB, so I'm pretty open to all types of FBs. Are there any flagship models/nibs you recommend?

Also, any specific shops you would recommend in Tokyo to get the best price?

Thanks all!

I wish I could help more, but if you get to visit Nakaya do let us know about your experience.

I have several Nakayas and love all of them. I would suggest an expressive OM or CI nib to make things interesting. They are astonishing pens!

If you're in Tokyo please stop by Eboya.

NIKKO EBONITE MFG. CO., LTD.
Address:
1-38-6 Arakawa, Arakawa-ku
Tokyo 116-0002, JAPAN
Phone number:
+81 3 3891 5258

Nikko makes the ebonite that ends up as Nakayas and Namikis and Danitrios and King of Pen and Izumos and also some really fine ebonite pens of their own design. They are also great folk.

Also New Years is a big celebration period so check to see what is open or closed.


Also check out the Tokyo Pen Shop Quill.

I doubt Nakaya will have you, but Itoya in Ginza have a very good selection of their pens.
