I have just come across an interesting-looking pen, being sold by eBay seller, Pen Paradise.

 

It's clipless, made of (matt) ebonite and has what looks like a Monteverde-branded nib (advertised as titanium-plated steel), available in F, M and B. It's a c/c. It was made in very limited numbers to Pen Paradise's specifications. It's a good-looking pen, but I've never heard of either it or the merchant. And the 139 Euro asking price (plus postage) seems a little steep for an unknown entity.

 

The seller has a lot of feedback (nearly 100% positive), so I guess someone must know them. So: do you have any knowledge, experience and/or opinion on this model (or failing that, the seller)?

 

The eBay UK link is:

Thank you.

I don't read German and don't find an English translation so I don't know the details. Perhaps someone will translate it, please !

      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
