Nice review, this is one of the pens on my wish list, only recently saw a few in the flesh and was surprised that thye seemed quite small, but didn't stop me wanting one.

 

Don't apologise about your handwriting it's much better than mine.

I have a 100N from approximately 1948 and it is one of my favorite writers. Not all what I expected. Mine is a very stiff fine, which I like quite a bit. Do you know what year your pen is?

 

Mine is the one on top of its brothers and sisters.

I'll apologize up front for the poor handwriting and photo quality.

I'm not sure what year this pen is, I have not done my homework on it. My guess would be in the mid 40s? Thanks for the kind words.

My 100N (green marble) is basically the keeper of all keepers. It's a OM beauty with more character than the new stock Pelikan nibs, and it really does feel bigger than its measurements, yet still lightweight. It also seems to demand a classic ink: I lean towards a blue-black on the blacker side of blue.

      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
