Stylus On Fountain Pen

[Hans-Gabriel]

I came across a few FP models that have a stylus.

 

Do you use the stylus on your fountain pen ?

 

Would you buy a FP with a stylus ?

 

I'm working on a FP design and would like to get your feeling on this.

 

Thank you!

Unfortunately no - when I am using an FP and using a stylus I am in two different states of mind, so I personally can not envision myself buying a device that did both. Sorry...

FYI i know levenger sells a pen like this -- https://www.levenger.com/PENS---REFILLS-8/SHOP-BY-BRAND-34/LEVENGER-275/L-Tech-3.0-Fountain-Pen-13203.aspx

 

Might be useful to see reviews and what people think of it.

I actually have a Monteverde One-Touch Engage, which is not actually a fountain pen, but a rollerball but has a stylus on it. I do use it periodically, when I have my iPad next to me as I'm jotting notes and I need to stab the screen for a few buttons here and there.

 

Generally however, it doesn't see very much usage.

Monteverde also has a stylus/FP combo:

No fps with a stylus & no actual use for a stylus. Can't say I absolutely wouldn't buy a pen with a stylus, but it wouldn't be a point in favor.

I have this unusual heavily hooded-nib Fountain Pen marked Stylus on the barrel & with a very small (M.SZ) at the lower end of the barrel. Does anyone have any information about it?

No, sorry. It looks as if it *might* have a Pelikan clip on it. Unfortunately when I did a Google search I wasn't finding anything remotely like it (and have no idea if Pelikan ever made pens with hooded nibs). What is the writing on the barrel? That may give you some clue as to what it is. Is there any sort of logo on the cap finial?

The writing is "Stylus" and lower down the barrel, out of sight, is "M.SZ"
