Confused to say the least but really happy to see Conway Stewart are back hopefully in a few decades may actually be able to afford one though.

I just received the mail, there it says they are currently putting the 'leftover' parts together that they purchased from the administrator.

New Conway Stewart releases!
Initially we are concentrating on converting the Conway Stewart components acquired from the administrators into new pens. This is all original stock acquired from the Plymouth factory, including original nibs, clips, cap bands and acrylic components, which we are assembling into finished pen stocks. There are limited numbers of pens available, so it's definitely first-come, first-served

So, no new models, just new pens. I am tempted, before it is really too late. And who knows, maybe this can help revive the brand like so many others.

If I understand correctly, the people behind Onoto pens along with a couple of other people bought the bulk of the Conway Stewart pen components and nibs and, I can only assume, the rights to the Conway Stewart trademark.

Probably not, but time will tell.

      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
