NOS Proust F that is not NOS anymore, inked with noodlers blue/black ink. The nib appears to show the slightest hint of skipping. Please see the c in cowardly. Any idea if heavy everyday use would potentially rectify this ?

Lovely pen, and that fine nib suits your handwriting well. I would use the pen for a few weeks before judging ink flow or skipping issues.

These two masterpieces, the 149 with a F nib, and the 30 with a EF nib.

When the 264 and other pens ran out of ink today, one of the replacements was a 121. Given it is 18k, no breather hole, winged nib, I was a little surprised to find a little touch of softness in the nib; not in the least is this flex, just a little give in the lower end of the nib tines which with a smooth ink flow lends a feel to the pen such that you are not distracted from your writing. The fact that physically it is also a shade wider than style leaders of the era such as the Hastil from Aurora and Classique from S T Dupont means again that the pen is that bit more comfortable for writing over time. An excellent pen.

The Proust is beautiful, except the nib, but the rest of the pen makes me look at my current collection and consider what’s next to go!

A wonderful 144 from the 50s with an OB filled with KWZ Blue-black IG ink.

Excellent choice!

      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
