Anyone able to compare the CH 912 FA nib and the regular Pilot Falcon nib? I recently purchased the Falcon and now I'm having buyer's regret hearing that the FA nib on the Custom Heritage 912 and the Custom 742 are even better.

Surprise! I hadn't realised until now that pens in the Pilot Custom line have threaded collars screwed into their gripping sections.© A Smug Dill

I was thinking about getting a Pilot with a WA (Waverly) nib and was wondering if any of you have used it and compared it with the writing experience of a Sheaffer Triumph nib, which has that slight upturned nib as well. I think that is called a "Waverly" type of nib though I don't think Sheaffer called it as such. I've seen the excellent thread where there's a visual comparison of the Triumph nib with the Pilot WA nib but I was wondering about comparing the feel of writing of one versus the other. (https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/223586-pilot-custom-742-waverly-nib/) I have a couple pens with Triumph nibs (Imperial II Deluxe and Sentinel Snorkel) and I love both of those nibs; was wondering if this should be next on the list?

Is There Any Real Difference Between The Pilot Custom 742 And 743?
Arctic_Wolf posted a topic in Japan - Asia
Both are listed with an FA nib, but the 743 is significantly more expensive from the same retailer (maybe $50-60 more). They look identical online, is there any actual difference in the pens?- 10 replies
