Recommended Posts

I'm using fountain pen daily, however from time to time, I have to deal with form that have carbon paper... so I have come to term that fountain pen arent really suitable for those situation...

 

then I found out about Noodler's Konrad Rollerball, it's great as It can uses fountain pen ink... However since I dont uses it quite often, so I wonder if it'll dry out easily..

 

I'm looking for a pen that wont dry out even after a month of unused.

 

Thanks.

I use a variety of rollerballs. I have learned to store them tip down for better longevity. Same for gel rollerballs or more liquid ink rollerballs.

I have two Konrad roller balls. I use them fairly frequently but I find them less prone to drying out than say the Konrad fountain pens. I don't know about leaving them for a month without use. I have left mine for a week or two and have not experienced any issues. In fact I find them to work well with dryer inks (Liberty's Elysiam) that otherwise dry out quickly in fountain pens

      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
