Here's an superb Parker 45 Deluxe made in England.

 

I have been through this pen and it is in excellent condition. I did find traces of ink so I know it was inked at some point ... otherwise the pen looks virtually unused. The barrel still has the chalk marks from the factory. When I took down the nib unit I found a nib marked "Made in England 14kt-585" and the nib collar is marked "M" which coincides with the chalk mark on the barrel. When tested with Noodler's BPB on Rhodia 5mm graph the pen put down a very full Medium line with generous ink flow (see sample). The pen is fitted with a proper Parker converter and will also take cartridges -- in fact the Parker 45 is the pen that introduced the C/C fill system to the market in the early 1960s. The pen is a greenish-blue that IMHO is quite elegant when viewed in person - I don't really now if this is Turquoise or Teal Blue and the photos do not show the true depth and gloss of the color. If you want a superb writer that's in excellent condition ... this is a great example of the Parker 45.

      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
