The love affair with Wingsung 601s continues...

I recently picked up some extra nibs for my 601s and have started playing around with grinds. Here is a cursive italic. It needs a little love and it has a tiny sweet spot, but I'm enjoying the experience!

Amazing pens. Love mine. 

Just give me the Parker 51s and nobody needs to get hurt.

Yep, glad you discovered the 601!! I gave away two and have a "flighter" now.

My favorite version (so far) is my "clear fighter" with a 14k EF nib. The weight and balance are perfect and the nib is more of a gently-use pencil instead of of the typical freshly sharpened feel.Cost about $90 to Frankenpen together so I don't know if I'd swing for another gold nib but I do love it.

I bought one of those 3 packs of nibs back in 2019 or so, put the biggest/most bent one on my daily carry (demonstrator), its great.

bought one of the old school pre-piston vac back ends with the diaphragm and put that in the other demonstrator, just cause. I mean, ill never own a demonstrator "51"... may as well get as close as I can :)
