I have two of these pens - green and silver. They have not been used much as I find both of them to be unreliable. They are hard starters and skip a lot.

 

Hari - how did you remove the nib? Is it a push fit or screw, as I have not been able to remove mine.

Whatever is true,whatever is noble,whatever is right,whatever is pure,whatever is lovely,whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things.

Yes the nib and feed will pull out. it is very tight, do not attempt if you have not developed the feel for these things yet.

Mine doesn't skip but it will usually start on second stroke but after that no issue skipping. I read about other review and youtube, it says it is common on this model. I was thinking about removing the nib and refit it to see if there is a different but since I don't really use much (I use fine point nib) I did not try it.

Mine has a crack in the section, where the barrel screw on..Any idea where I can get a replace for this part?

Thanks in advance...

I have bought some of these pens from Printhardcopy, and he is on this board. He also sells through ebay. He might be a good person to contact. No affiliation, but a satisfied customer. I have not bought anything from him in a long time, but here is his recent ebay weblink: http://www.ebay.com/sch/printhardcopy/m.html . I hope you can find what you need.

 

All the best,

      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
