I have at least two active books at one time. One is a smaller journal book that i carry with me most of the time. I use it for random thoughts, sermon notes, etc. I also have a medium size...

My favorite is a western medium with a backside that writes a Japanese extra fine. Steel (unplated) is my preference, though gold is fine as long as it is hard. I don't really care for soft nibs,...

I use my FPs every day for notes, memos, writing projects, journal, etc. Sometimes I will draw with them. I guess I use them for anything I would use a pen for.

Thanks for the review, especially with all the cutting and pasting so that we can see the colors on different paper side by side.

I think that the Piccadilly journal prices are great, as well as...

I currently have four FPs in my collection (Sapporo EF, m205 M, Safari EF/1.1i, Estie SJ w/ 2668). I don't want to have so many pens as to have to rotate in and out, to be honest, so I've just been...

I know I would be very interested in seeing an Esterbrook display. I know it took actually holding and writing with one to convince me that vintage pens were a viable option for me.

No problem. Fortunately, if I rotate the pen just a bit, it will write very smooth. Basically, the sweet spot is just smaller than one would normally find on a medium nib.

I would definitely...

There is a fp user meet up tomorrow in Louisville if you are interested. It's at 10:30am and will go for at least a couple of hours. Let me know if you are interested in coming out.

Stephen - Where in Kentucky are you? I'm in Louisville.

Review of a Pelikan m205 clear demo.

Appearance, Design, Size:
This pen is pretty small and light. Interestingly, for me at least, is that the length does not change much from being capped to...

I received an Esterbrook SJ w/ 2668 nib from this forum about a week ago. It's my first and only vintage pen at the moment, and it's been fun writing with it.

Aurora 88 rhodium trim...not sure if I would rather have vintage or modern though. I think I would be scared to use anything more expensive, even if I'm not paying for it.

I think Staples discontinued bagasse loose leaf, but they still carry bagasse comp books and maybe pads.

Where are you located?

Using cheap paper is just going to make you miserable...seeing your nice inks just feather and bleed. Do you need A4 size?

If you want a good combo of cheap and decent quality, and don't need...

I don't think the ED requires more effort to fill. In fact, I can't imagine anything being easier to fill, unless, of course, you don't have an eyedropper. The problem is that EDs, at least some,...

eriquito - My Safari wouldn't fit correctly there. My no.2 pencil fits just right though.

I think any type of filling system is going to have things its better and worse at. It probably just depends on what the user can/cannot stand.

The ED has the potential to hold a lot of ink,...

I'm super excited about the prize. Thanks!

My favorite color is blue. For FPs, I mainly use Noodlers Bad Blue Heron and Lamy Blue-Black (iron gall).

I was looking into cutting out disposable items in my life and got introduced to FPs. Safari's price point was not bad, so I tried it out and liked them. I don't dispose of cheap ballpoints...

My current favorite is my Pilot Custom 74 Demo. The nib is smooth with a touch of feedback, the feed keeps the ink coming, the large capacity converter allows me to really show off the ink that is...
