Vote For Your Favourite Pen Of All Time


Kuscer

Recommended Posts

I agree with Jar. The only way such a poll could have meaning is if you had a couple hundred options AND you could get a substantial chunk (25% or more?) of us to reply. Good luck with that. Even if you met both of those conditions it still wouldn't mean much. Something like this is way too subjective to take seriously.

If you haven't noticed 95 people voted in this thread in 2 weeks. And, dear Jar, please take time and DO complete the survey because I didn't create it with the built-in poll-app and you might find it quite different.

Kind regards, Dingan

no, not really, just continuing this thread with an easier-to-count-the-votes application

My favorite pen is the 51, because its styling is classic, it writes very well, and the aero version is almost unkillable... almost.

 

Yes, it´s not easy to clean and it doesn´t flex, but that wasn´t considered a problem when it was designed.

 

If you´re looking for a pen that will write day in and day out, you can´t do better.

I love my Pelikan M800 Brown Tortoise! Once I get the nib ground down to a true fine by Mike Masuyama I'm sure I'll love it even more.

 

That said, once I finally ended up with parts that didn't break on my TWSBI Mini, it turned out to be my most used fountain pen since I could throw it around rather than baby like my M800.

 

Urgh... so many other pens I love too but M800 it is.

Sheaffer Targa. Saw me through college and was absolutely 1000% bulletproof, day in, day out. And FAST; definitely the pen you want for a timed essay test!

Well everyone who wrote Parker 51 got the right answer and everyone else should check their working out and find their mistake. Honorable mentions to ... Nah, no one comes second.

I don't have one favorites but many so I can't vote

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

      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
