Nice review Thanks! Reg the stoppage that you encountered, the feeders are made of ebonite and will need to be primed well. Once primed, the ebonite feeder works like a champ. Here are some filling instructions:

Nice review

 

thanks Amarjit!

Good review. Can't beat this pen on value for the price.

Completely agree! though I still need to ink the Wality 71JT. Hopefully will be another worthy Wality

Thanks Hari. I actually used your instructions and it seems to be working fine since then; I was a little apprehensive reading mehandritta's bleg about his Wality 71JT nib but hopefully I face no such issues!

good handwritten review... nothing beats handwritten.... u write what u feel while writing with pen... so connected....

 

Also best thing about ebonite is that the feeds can be widened at your convenience.. there are few youtube videos about the same...

Also 71JT is well balanced pen... without posting... for its size... you dont require cap posting....

 

lastly as i said nibs are hit and miss... My 69 A nib and my 52 PD nibs were good enough....

Thank you sir! Someone praising my handwriting is a truly first

One question on the YouTube video - would it be possible to share a good example, maybe a a reference thread for archiving?

      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
