Craftsmanship and Comfort: A Review of the Click 'Yen' Fountain Pen
Sagarb posted a topic in Fountain Pen Reviews
The Unique Pen Industry has been crafting the 'Click' writing instruments for decades. Situated in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, the Click fountain pen is renowned for its affordability and dependability. It is favored by novices and aficionados alike for its diverse range of fountain and calligraphy pens. Besides taking care of his business, Harsh Gagwani, the company owner, hosts numerous events and competitions (like handwriting, calligraphy) almost every year to ignite a passion for fountain pens among children, young people and every fountain pen enthusiasts. The beauty of a Classic Design and Build Quality: The Click 'Yen' impresses right out of the box with its timeless classic cigar-shape design. The pen’s design is a harmonious blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern elegance, making it a centerpiece in any fountain pen collection. The pen's body is crafted from high-quality resin; available in a variety of four stunning colors all are so beautiful. The material feels robust and sturdy, and very well-balanced, providing a comfortable grip for extended writing sessions. The cap and barrel feature intricate detailing. It sports chrome accents, with a ball end clip and two beautiful bands on the cap, reflecting Click’s dedication to artisanal craftsmanship. Four Colors Nib and Performance: The heart of any fountain pen is its nib, and the Yen does not disappoint. The nib is available in multiple sizes (Extra-fine, fine, medium, broad, 1.1 stub, 1.5 stub and flex) provides a smooth writing experience with consistent ink flow. The nibs are made by Jowo, Click imprinted on top. I opted for the EF nib. It has a slight feedback (which I like) that is pleasant and not scratchy. It works well with various inks and handles different paper types without any issues. Nib: Jowo made, No. 6, Chrome plated, Extra Fine Filling System: The Yen comes with 3 in 1 filling system; cartridge, converter and eye dropper. The piston filling converter is easy to use and holds a reasonable amount of ink. The pen can also be used with any standard ink cartridges for convenience. Two large cartridges and a converter is included in the box 3 in 1 Filling System Writing Sample: Ink: Krishna Ghat Green Comfort and Ergonomics: The hourglass section encourages proper finger placement and is very comfortable for long writing sessions. The cap can be posted securely without affecting the pen's balance and since it's a large pen it looks a bit awkward. The length and diameter are suitable for most hand sizes. Length: Capped-150 mm, Uncapped - 140mm, Posted- 180mm Pros and Cons Pros: - Durable and lightweight design - Smooth writing experience - Variety of nib sizes and colors - Cap opens in one and quarter turn Cons: Haven’t found. Overall Impression: The Click Yen fountain pen is a perfect example of the brand’s dedication to quality and craftsmanship. It offers a superb writing experience, backed by an elegant design and reliable performance. And overall the price they offer is reasonable. Recently Click has introduced the same model in ebonite material which is as much attractive as this, and will be included in my collection soon.

A Couple Of New Pens. Fourth Of July And I'm Not Sure What
jj9ball posted a topic in Pen Turning and Making
Here are a couple new pens. I haven't made any in a little while. The first one is a Fourth of July Torpedo, Cigar, Missile looking thing. ITS HUGE around 18mm at its fattest and the section is even 13mm. It is 5 3/4" long and just over 5 1/2" long without the cap. It is equipped with a JOWO Fine nib. It has a threaded k6 Schmidt converter but could also be used as an eyedropper. Questions and Comments welcome and appreciated as always. The second pen is a little tamer maybe. I was going to make an all black pen and about the time I started working on the body I really had this urge to put a little extra color on there... and then when I was working on the cap, I was planning to go all black, but I couldn't help myself. So this pen started out being all black and ended up like it is. This pen is around 5 3/4" long and the cap is 17mm thick and the body is just under 14mm thick. I used single start 14mm threads on both pens. This one is equipped with an extra fine JOWO nib. It also has a Schmidt k6 threaded converter. I would love to hear opinions on either pen. Thanks for looking.
