Sailor KOP Ebonite, or save up for an MB Great Characters?
Le.Pen.Supremo posted a topic in Fountain & Dip Pens - First Stop
Hi there! There’s a local pen show happening in a few days and I want to hear some thoughts. I have been wanting the Sailor KOP Ebonite for two years now and I wonder if it’s worth getting. Will the ebonite body last for a long time (with proper care of course)? I’m afraid that the ebonite might easily discolor or lose its shine (one of the main reasons why I like it) after a year or so and that it might be too fragile. Or perhaps I should go for an acrylic version? On the other hand, my ultimate grail is the Montblanc Great Characters Enzo Ferrari. But it’s a bit far from my budget right now so I need to wait for a few months if that’s the better buy. As much as I want both, I will only be settling for one pen in the near future as I want to focusing on other things. So KOP or MB Great Characters? Let me know your thoughts! -
Hi FPN! Its been awhile... I have a new target pen up coming and I was hoping to get some of your opinions/experiences... I am lingering on which colour of Sailor KOP urushi I should pick up... So far the contenders are: 1. Blue 2. Crimson 3. Green Has anyone seen first hand or own any other colours other than the red one? (It seems that the crimson is the crowd favorite) I currently own a Namiki vermillion urushi and thought maybe I should try another colour for my next big urushi pen! Let me know if you have any thoughts or experiences please!
