This Pen is my EDC Pen. Everythings is perfect but I have a problem with it. Exterior part of the pen (the black coated part) is fading and the metal inside part is being seen. Especially the grip section and bottom of the Pen.

Wow! That is Sad! I will have to start watching my own pen for this failure.....Sounds like you need to contact the MFR for assistance with your pen?

Best regards.

A really good review with nice photo's.

 

A little bit constructive criticism if you don't mind me.

 

I think you have been a little too generous with the points giving?

Just a stainless steel nibbed pen at £150 pounds is a bit pricey.

c/c has it's obvious disadvantages a well as it's advantages e.g. small ink capacity.

 

I apologies if this offends It's just I always find constructive criticism is useful.

 

Same nib/feed as the much, much cheaper Basic and Loom ?

I've just received two Emotion bought on Ebay. I love the Faber Castell and Graf pens. The rather heavy Emotion is simply a great pen !!!!

Needless to say I was very surprised to see two of MY pictures show up in your review! I'd sincerely appreciate if Chi Town would edit his review and briefly mention me as the rightful owner of picture #2 and #6. If not, I will report this review for unauthorised use of work that is my own!

Hi, I purchased this pen and just Luv it! Which is why I am doing the following Review;

 

APPEARANCE & DESIGN; (10-10)

 

This a masculine Aluminum Barrel with it's guilloche pattern looking pen ....The Matt Black color really sets it off, followed by the Black Nib which has a PVD Black coated steel medium nib....and the Cigar Shaped design of the overall pen.......I do not know what PVD is?

attachicon.gifimage.jpg

 

CONSTRUCTION & QUALITY; ( 10-10)

 

This is one well made German Fountain Pen! The fit and finish is exact to the nth degree.....There is no slop and everything is a nice tight fit!

attachicon.gifimage.jpg

 

WEIGHT & DIMENSIONS; (9-10)

 

The only knock here is the weight......it is just a tad heavy! With that said, here are the Dimensions; 5.4" Capped x 5.6" Posted. The Barrel is .57" in Diameter and the cap is .66" in Diameter........It also has a Cigar Shape to it's overall look......

attachicon.gifimage.jpg

 

NIB & PERFORMANCE; (10-10)

 

Right now, the nib blobs every once in a blue moon, but that is due to the fact that I am using a universal converter as it did not come with a converter as it should have! I will write to the company to get a converter. Other than that it performs Beautifuly. It has a nice wet line, but not too wet! This comes with a NIB that I have never heard of before, that being a PVD Coated Black Steel Medium Nib....which writes like a dream!

FILLING SYSTEM & MAINTENCE; (10-10)

 

The filling system used in this pen is a Cartridge / Converter type...... And the MAINTENCE to clean it is the same as anyother c/c.........

attachicon.gifimage.jpg

 

COST & VALUE; (10-10)

 

I paid 175.00 for my pen and believe it was a very good deal! I have seen them go for higher but never for less. I believe at this price it is a priced right were it belongs for the average pen user!

attachicon.gifimage.jpg

 

CONCLUSION; (59-60)

 

Spec's ; Black Resin, Diamond engraving on the barrel, Spring Load metal

Clip, Cigar-shaped design, has PVD coated black steel medium

Nib, Accepts cartridges or Converter, Masculine Aluminum

Barrel with it's guilloche pattern.

 

Please forgive me if I have not done a good job here as it has been quite some time since my last Pen Review. From the 1st time I laid my eyes on this pen I feel in love with it and just had to have it! I am so thankful that it writes as good as it looks and just can't wait for my new converter to get here, to stop the blobbing......even if it only does it once in awhile? Would I recommend this pen to a friend? I most certainly would and if I had those extra funds, I would even buy it for them! That is how much I like this pen..I keep 18-20 pens inked up with different colors at any given time and now with this pen in my rotation? I can easily see it as my "go to" Fountain pen! Thanks for joining me here and if you have any questions, P lease feel free to ask me :-)

 

Hi, I just wanted to give Thanks to Dries Bleus, for using two of his photos in my review. Thank You Dries!!!

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
