    Default Namiki Falcon

    As the title says, I want to buy a Namiki Falcon used. Cosmetics not an issue. I need a user grade Falcon with a soft fine nib. Also I want one in resin not metal. New ones a much above my means. Hopefully a used one will show up.
    I'm discovering vintage pens. Oh no!

    If you are still looking, I have a Namiki Falcon with a soft broad nib, in excellent condition. Recently serviced while visiting Tokyo, Japan. I'm from Sydney, Australia so let me know if you are interested.

    Is the one for sale here too expensive?

    Hrm, now I'm debating if I want to sell my Pilot Falcon (SF) or not... seeing as I don't use it as often as my Century 3776 with a SF [which is a finer line, but not as much softness] (or does it have to be Namiki, since Pilot has the Rhodium trim, not gold colored).

    No I would say it is reasonable. A soft fine is somewhat hard to find and $125 for one in very good condition is OK.

    I think he isn't interested anymore. Never even replied to my PM.

    Probably. I'd *probably* go 125 for my own (with a Soft Fine), but I'd rather trade it for a Capless/VP with a Fine or Extra-Fine.
