Hi everybody,

I'm looking for a pen that really suits my needs. Mostly I need something to write comfortably that for me it means no rollerball or ballpoint pens since i really dont like them.

Although what I'm looking for it's a pen with peculiar colors and thus fountain pens are the best option, but in the past i used a cheap version of a fountain pen and i didn't really like it. But it had a very particular nib (like a needle similar to Pilot V7 rollerball) that was cool.

Anyway I really love the fineliner pens and so i was wondering if there's any way to use fountain ink on a fineliner pen.

If you have any other tip like a specific brand that sells fineliner with a wide range of colors i'd appreciate that too :) .

Thanks in advance for your comments

I find it interesting that the Pilot V5 cartridges are side-by-side the same as their fountain pen cartridges. I do wonder if the ink in them is the same.

Will work for pens... :unsure:

Maybe you could fill a blank copic marker with Fp ink?

I don't think it is possible , I've already asked the same thing to a pen seller. The most similar pen i found is the Aristo mg1 tecnichal drawing pen but im not sure it is compatible with fountain ink

Why not possible? they would only tell you it's not recommended, just to force you to use copic ink. Other than it being alcohol based, i don't see why not. if if not, then you're only out $7 or so.

You might try the Jinhao 911 (not 992!). Available from Honk Kong via the Bay and the Zone.

It is a fountain pen with a very fine hooded nib, almost a fineliner.

 

It looks like a WingSung 601 which is said to be a clone of the Parker 51 (can't judge this myself as I have neither),

but it has a steel cap and section and has a normal cartridge/converter filling system

instead of the vacumatic system of the Parker and the Wing Sung.

 

Might be what you're looking for ....

I would suggest rotring isograph technical pens which are available in a wide range of line widths. Plenty of used ones around for a few euro. They work fine with fountain pen ink. I also use well filtered tea, coffee and various other liquids in mine.

Rotring or Koh-I-Nor inks are totally waterproof and can be left in pens for extended period.

Buy the cartridge system pilot v7/v5 pens, you can use bottled ink with them via a converter. or refill the cart using a syringe. The con 40 converter fits in the pen

      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
