Recommended Posts

I just got a note from the manufacturer that price information will be available in ~2 weeks.

 

Variations of this pen will be shown on this year's pen show in Cologne, Germany.

 

Cheers

I love everything about it apart from the ink windows, I think it would look even more classy with a simple clear window like Pelikans!

All the best.

Ah, it looks like they do have models with more conventional-looking ink windows, then. Cool.

I for one love the port hole ink windows, a cool departure from the old standard shape. A new pen to lust after, just what I needed.

The ink windows and wood grain hard rubber is what sells it for me too. There is definitely a nice whimsical nautical look to, and whimsical is a great quality in my eye. Definitely a pen I will be keeping an eye on

FP Ink Orphanage-Is an ink not working with your pens, not the color you're looking for, is never to see the light of day again?!! If this is you, and the ink is in fine condition otherwise, don't dump it down the sink, or throw it into the trash, send it to me (payment can be negotiated), and I will provide it a nice safe home with love, and a decent meal of paper! Please PM me!<span style='color: #000080'>For Sale:</span> TBA

It's been a long time so I'll ask.... What is the cost. I couldn't find a price on their website. If it one of those "if you have to ask, you can't afford it" issues I guess I'd rather not know.

The only feature to remain the same in all these versions is the wide cap band.

 

Material

Cap shape

Clip

Barrel shape

Ink view windows (which I don't like either versions)

 

no thanks

      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
