Hi fountain pen friends !

Just wanted to let you know the special edition of the "AntwerPPen" is now available for sale on line.

These pens are exclusively available in two well known fountain penshops in Antwerp.

Both the Regular and the Kingsize versions are offered, alternatively completely in the brilliant red composite material or equipped with a demonstrator barrel.

The Giraffe version is also available, although only with a demonstrator barrel.

Below the link to the "AntwerPPen" site, hope you like it !

You can find all contact information of the 2 shops which are exclusively selling the pens on this site

Best regards,

Francis

I will get one if they are still available next month. I love the solid Red regular version, But also have to add in the cost of a another Titanium nib.

are these limited editions or will they be part of the regular lineup ?

 

Hi frogbaby,

The "AntwerPPen" Bulkfiller range is not a numbered "Limited Edition"

Instead it is a non numbered "Special Edition", which could get part of the regular line-up in the future.

Best regards,

Francis

Thank you Francis - but are numbers of this pen limited at the moment? I am interested in getting one but would like to visit the shop in Antwerp during a trip to see my brother, who lives in Leuven. I probably can't do that until next March - is this pen likely to still be available then? I can imagine it will sell well ....

I ordered mine yesterday. Looks like it will ship Tuesday.

Do post pictures please. Really want to see how the material looks in non-white background pics and does it have any depth or not.

Hello bbs,

I not aware of the exact number of pens, but as far as I remember Conid made 50 pens in in each of the "full red" versions - Regular and Kingsize - and 20 of each in the "demonstrator" barrel versions , being the Regular, Kingsize en Giraffe

Francis

I've been told that the Regular size cannot come with a titanium nib, is that correct? Real shame if so.

 

How easy is it to swap nibs on this pen - are they screw in?

 

Thanks ....

Hi bbs,

Yes , nibs versions on the S.E versions are standardized, so the shops can't offer alternative nib versions

The screw-in nib units are however easily swapped, so one can always order any complementary nib directly from Conid.

Francis

My Pen shipped this morning and I should have it Monday evening. I also placed an order with Conid for a Titanium Broad stub nib. The nib should ship by the end of the month.

      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

      @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
