What do you think of this Tombow?


I have that Tombow! I used it at work for several years, every day. I like it very much. After using cheap Scheaffer fountain pens years ago, this was one of the two that got me back into using them. The nib unscrews, but I don't know where to get them. Mine has a medium. The medium seems on the fine side of medium to me, but lately I mostly use fine nibs. The nib on mine is stiff and middle of the road between wet and dry. No trouble skipping. The plating on the end of the barrel will wear off if you post the cap. Mine did not come with a converter, but the cartridges are standard and I have converters that work.

Where did you find that, are they still made, and what is it called? I just write with mine; I don't know anything about it.

Interesting design--I like it! Do you own one of them? Where did you find it or see it?

(I'm curious; why did you put the images in a Word document, rather than embedding them in your post?)
