Not a good listing for the seller, but a decent looking 25 for $20.

 

Listed under ballpoints and fountain is spelled wrong.

Those are nice looking pens. I never had a 25. I was obsessed with 51s for a long time.

Its okay to have more than one style of pen :D . I have a half-dozen 25's in the black, blue, green, and matte black colors (anyone have a spare orange one?), all smooth writers, neat flighter look, and super-solid for carrying in a pocket or briefcase. Although it doesn't bother me, a downside for some people may be the lack of flex to the nib.

One test is worth a thousand expert opinions.

How hard is it to find one of these with an EF nib? Or, with the lack of flex is it better to go F?

 

Do these accept modern Parker converters?

Nevermind. It seems EF nibs are rare and modern converters should fit. If I'm wrong on either point feel free to chime in.

      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..

      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
