Maybe a Lamy Nexx or Lamy Studio

Levenger True Writer

Dollar 717 (looks interesting)

one of TWSBI's upcoming pens, either the pearl 580 or a Vac Mini

A Conway Stewart Belliver Borealis tops my wish-list. And perhaps a new nib for my CS Windsor, a medium italic. And a new large pen sleeve from Franklin-Christoph to fit my Windsor.

I've seen tested it. It's really heavy large and unwieldy. A but too large for my taste.

Pilot Justus. But I don't think I'll be buying any pens this year, finances are tight and house repairs take precedence.

I just received my clear Platinum Cool today from Cultpens. I can definitely say that they deliver fast! I ordered it Tuesday and it was shipped and arrived here today (Friday). Really good and speedy service at least for me so based on that I'll recommend them :P Oh and I totally drooled over

The dark brown pearwood one one and the white one. Gorgeous looking fountain pens! There might still be one in my future :ninja:

But before that probably the Sailor Pro Gear Slim Blueberry

I love my Platinum Cool. Seems not to be a very popular pen on here but the F nib is just wonderful for the price. Really springy. IMO a lot of other more expensive pens struggle to match up to it. I bought mine from CultPens too. I've got the clear (and a blue with M nib). For an EDC they're great, and for convenience on the go the little Platinum Universal adaptor works well with short international cartridges.

I have a Faber-Castell E-Motion Parquet Black. It's nice to look at, the nib's okay, too, but holding the pen and writing more than a couple of words... You'd better test it before you buy or order it from somewhere where you can return it if you don't like it.

You've watched

?

 

My wishlist:

1. Parker Vacumatic green striated with striped jewels and art deco band. Seen once for sale, didn't buy it immediately, 30 minutes later it was gone and I'm still biting my ass...

2. Pelikan M1000

3. A Nakaya in aka-tamenuri

The next few on my list are:

 

Dinitrio Cum Laude

Italix Parson's Essential

Italix Originalis

Italix Churchman's Prescriptor

Italix Captain's Commission

Platinum 3776 Chartres Blue

Franklin Christoph Model 27

Edited by Blue_Moon

Franklin-Christoph, Italix, and Pilot pens are the best!
Iroshizuku, Diamine, and Waterman inks are my favorites!

Apica, Rhodia, and Clairefontaine make great paper!

I like making pen sets. I have a P51 Plum FP looking for the matching pencil.

Anything I do not have is on the wish wish wish list.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
