Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

Wonderful pen and review, George. Congratulations. Of the ones I've had the fortune to briefly test, the nibs fo the original Legacy were as responsive as the PFM (II and V). It was surprising to find that although fatter, the PFM was of the same size than the Imperial, if not shorter.

Nice pen. However, the nib is not a Triumph nib; it is an inlaid nib.

Hi,

 

PFM II is really a fine fountain pen. I also have a blue barrel, metal cap copy with a medium nib. It's one of my best writers. Mine is from 1962 and I also have a fine nib black with steel trim PFM I (1960) which makes a nice design impression. And my burgundy PFM III is a nice writer, but the plastic cap came with a few chips at the top of the cap, which, I assume, is common for a 1959 plastic cap. Have thought of getting IV and V PFMs but my PFM acquisition syndrome is satisfied with the three I have.

 

Best,

Andy

      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
