Paul E. Wirt Fountain Pens

Recommended Posts

There used to be a great website about Paul E. Wirt Fountain Pens, but it has not been up for a while. I love Paul Wirt pens, so I have decided to make a website dedicated largely to Paul Wirt pens to showcase this great brand that seems to be under appreciated by current vintage fountain pen collectors. It also showcases my other interest in fountain pen filling systems. Please check out the links below.

Thank you for your website! It is most helpful.

 

My husband owns a Wirt that is very similar to one that you show in your Overlays photos. It is the fourth one down - with the gold overlay on the cap and body. This pen was owned by his great-grandmother and is now part of my husband's mother's trust. This pen, however, was never engraved. It is in very good condition for how old it is.

 

So your website has been very helpful in learning a bit more about the pen. Thank you again.

I added this domain to help people find information about Paul E Wirt fountain pens history, models, imprints, nibs, etc.

http://wirtpens.com/

This is just another domain name that goes to the same Paul Wirt pen website. That should be easier to remember!

Thanks for a great insight (and enduring reference) into Paul Wirt pens.

Unfortunately I don't see many (in fact none!) on the Australian vintage pen scene.

Despite this, I have managed to acquire a few. They are amongst my favourite pens.

Well done.

      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
