Onoto Pens

[david6]

Good to see Onoto Pens at the recent London Pen Show. James Boddy had some lovely pens on display though many outside of my price range. There were however Onoto pens on display that were within my price range and one is currently on order

 

Good to know that Onoto is still catering for all areas of of collectors

I thought that was good too. The stand was certainly busy whenever I went there.

 

So what did you order....?

[richardandtracy]

Can I ask which is on order (so I can drool vicariously)?

 

Regards,

I've gone for the Doctors pen, heavyweight version with 18ct medium gold nib

[Postscript]

Great choice.

[david6]

My Doctors pen (personalised) arrived last Monday and is delightful to use - as expected. It's a beautiful looking pen and has attracted a number of nice comments from people that have seen me using it.

 

Thanks James for all of your help to supply the pen that I have wanted for some time

What number is yours? I confess to being the doctor who suggested some of the design features ! Mine is 19. I have a stub 18c nib. I really like it though a plunger version would have been even better! It is a tiny bit longer than my 1930s Magnas.

Mine is number 83. I agree that a plunger version would have been even better

Onoto make excellent pens. Being a heavy pen lover I naturally gravitated to their silver pens and almost emptied my bank account with two super expensive purchases of sterling silver and vermeil pens, but I don't regret it for one moment. The workmanship is superb, the pens look like they could belong to the Sultan of Brunei and they also write very smoothly.

That is great news! Do you know if they still have there pen tubes available? I tried to contact them about a month ago and received no reply.

[Beechwood]

Do you mean the leather-like pen holder, often in red?

I have two of the leather pen tubes bought from one of our Canadian dealers (http://www.phidonpens.com), you might try them.

Sorry for not replying. My email has been down for a week so I could not receive email alerts and I have been busy restoring my email.

 

Will try to contact the various stores you have kindly ut me in touch with. But before I do, would it be more beneficial to this ailing company to buy directly from them or from a store they supply?

Their site looks intersting but is not iPad friendly.

Mano and Baldeep are great and will help you any way they can.
