I am up to 3 Esterbrooks now, two are in great working condition with one being MIB Black (Bell Telephone) with a nib that has never even been screwed into the pen. Both are J's and I also have a short Red estie that needs work. These pens are just so cool and for $9 - $15 they are better writers than my $50 -$100 fountain pens... go figure. I love that I can exchange nibs at will on these also.

Johnny,

It sounds like you and I are on the same page lately! I had one broken SJ a couple weeks ago; now I have 2 SJs, an LJ and 2Js. These pens are just too amazing for the money! The SJs are a little too small for my hands, so I may let them go, but the Js and SJs are wonderfully sized. Now I need more nibs

Esties work so good, you just can't help getting a few (or more).
