Noodlers Stylo Review


politovski

Recommended Posts

lots of pictures exist, so i don't think more are needed.

the piston fill stylo. it tames the dreaded baystate and works.

The only real downfall is the durability and the burping issue.

Cool pen though and gets alot of use.

I wanted to like this pen. I have several different makes of ink-rollers that take cartridges, but the idea of having one that was piston-fill was really appealing. So I got one and was pleased for a few days; then the ball in the tip fell out. After buying a replacement tip, I gave it another try, only to have a blob of ink spoil something I was working on after several minutes of writing. Maybe I'm just having bad luck with this particular pen . . . but I'm loathe to mess with it any longer or to try buying another one.

I have been using this pen at work for a few days now where a rollerball is needed. I am going to force myself to use it for a while at work and give a good review. So far from the few days I have been using it I really like it. Creaks a tad bit bit here and there but I bought the replacement tips so maybe I will give this a try. I have Noodler Bad Belted Kingfisher in mine and it is smooth.

well, an update is needed. i have been using this for a bit now and love the smoothness, and worked out the burping by just eliminating the air bubble. but, i have now had to replace two nibs, as the bsb seems to have eaten the ball, and nothing is left in the end of the rollerball! certainly not smooth when used as such. will see how it does with other inks.

      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
