Kirk Speer started collecting pens in 2016, with his first pen being a Parker 51. He fell in love with collecting any pen he could find, mostly at antique stores. He soon realized the importance of the nib and began by repairing and tuning nibs, followed by custom grinds, which he began offering as a service for others in 2017.
