Thread: Any Fountain Pen Users?

Came in today a set of parler pens.

45 Fountain pen Med nib
Clickety ballpoint
Mechanical pencil
Fibre tip









Ballpoint, fountain pen and pencil all work like a dream, very happy. The fibre has no cartridge and parker no longer make the refill, but I hear some have success with rollerball refills so may try that.

Definitely think this will make a good suit wearing set. Inlike to keep a pen on hand when I'm out in a suit 😂

My go to fountain pen is a Cross Art Deco platinum plated. I love all things Art Deco, including that pen.

Two of my favorites that I use most of the time.

A Karas Kustoms Fountain K Pen



The other is a titanium Namisu Nova pen with a titanium nib.

Jinhao 159, very large fountain pen, everyday user for me. No specialist here for sure but the vintage fountain pen I used before seemed like they were always scratching the paper. This Jinhao just glides nicely.

I have a few 450's, i like them except that the lids fall off and they are hard to start if they dont get used regularly

Never had the nib fall off, and since I changed ink it doesn't seem to dry up like the old one did.

The thing I love about Jinhao is that while they write really nicely (most of the time at least), they are so inexpensive, I have no problem taking them to work. If they were to disappear, they are easy to replace.
