What Pen Are You Waiting For In The Mail 2016


RMN

Recommended Posts

I recently ordered a Pelikan Stola III fountain pen, which also seems to go by the model number P16, so I'm waiting on that now. This is sort of a replacement for my Pelikan Pharo, because it doesn't seem to write very well anymore for whatever reason. I thought about other Pelikan models, but most are too expensive for me right now. The Stola III is in a lower price range though, and I could swing that plus some ink cartridges to go with it. :)

Hi everyone. I'm waiting for a Jinhao X750, X450, Lamy Safari (charcoal) and a Twsbi Eco (black). I just got interested in fountain pens about two months ago...I think I'm an addict. :)

Over the weekend I ordered a black Pilot Custom Heritage 91 with a soft fine nib. I have 8 pens, but none over $40 - so this is my first foray into mid-price pens. I will have to wait a couple of weeks for it to be shipped from Japan, so by the time the pen gets here I will be filled with anticipation!

I would definitely recommend that you hold onto your credit card & bank account as you travel down that rabbit hole that we fountain pen fanatics have fallen into! (LOL) On your X750 & X450 it is very easy to exchange nibs. In case you are not aware of Goulet Pen Co, they have #6 nibs for your X750 & X450 in extra fine, fine, medium, broad, 1.1 & 1.5 stubs. Have fun!!!

Soon, I should hear that Pendleton has shipped my TWSBI Diamond 580AL Green with a Butter Line Stub-Italic ground from a broad nib. I like the way ink looks in the faceted transparent barrels of those pens.

Edison LE Mina. Shipped on Monday the 29th; should leap into my hands on Thursday. I ordered an Extended version in blue denim ebonite - I can't remember what nib; I'll see when it arrives. Now for ink choices...

May we live, not by our fears but by our hopes; not by our words but by our deeds; not by our disappointments but by our dreams.

I found one up on amazon, after reading someone mentioning them in a thread on demonstrators. I love my Phileas, so it should be fun to have a demonstrator version.
