While i am here waiting for my first Sheaffer. It's just a plain black-silver sheaffer 100. I have never been writing with a Sheaffer so i dont know what to expect

Hi Schaden,

Sheaffer 100 is an excellent writer.But I'd request you to collect a Prelude or a Sagaris . Sheaffer fountain pens are really really nice.In fact my Legacy Heritage(the 1st one from the left in the posted image,the thickest one) is smoother than my Mont Blanc 145.

I had never touched a Sheaffer before so i bought Sheaffer 100 in Matte Black (has not arrived yet) to get a first impression, to find out whether or not i will buy the more expensive ones.

 

From the looks, the matte black version is lovely even though the whole design may look plain. But the more fountain pens i am using, the more i find out that i am looking for a work horse of a pen, which doesnt easily break if my pen falls on the ground (like my Visconti which i baby because i imagine it will break in pieces if it falls in the ground. At the end of the day, it is non sense to me to have an expensive fountain pens only to find out that once they fall, they break)

      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
