How I clean a 147 (and a Boheme as well) is to use an old ink cartridge; drilling a small hole in the end and inserting a hypodermic needle full of distilled water in the hole, and flushing the pen. The method works quite well and has kept my cartridge fillers clean for many a year.

Thanks :thumbup:

Enjoying the gorgeous Peggy Guggenheim ... There are 6 pens inked right now and I seem to want to use a different one for every page I write.

Never liked the looks of this until I saw your picture. Hmm

~ When Yubi saw those paw prints in the nishant's nib image, Yubi was convinced.

It's a nice pen...one which turns my head...

I have taken quite a fancy to this one actually .. It is weighty and writes beautifully. I am glad it isnt the most popular and hence, I found one sealed for a satisfying deal. I wanted to send it in for a nib change to the broad side but then found M nib to be incredibly smooth and have held back

I must say that those paw prints are quite attractive. Much better than having an ugly portrait on the nib IMO 😀

 

While the FPN elders did scare me in their posts about the step down etc, I found that it is not a problem at all for me, probably due to the way I grip.

Nishant, a stunning pen! Is this the 888 edition?

It is the 4810 version. The 888 is much gaudier in red and gold.

Just realised I have used 3 today, a 146, a boheme silver crystal and a starwalker cool blue. All write beautifully.

Nishant, is Agatha comfortable for lengthy sessions with the cap posted on the barrel?

I am drawn to the simplicity and skilled craftsmanship of this pen. A solid writer that has been on my wish list.

Absolutely. Agatha WE is simple, sophisticated and well balanced in my hands even when posted. I bought one new and then could not resist buying one more when I saw it carried an EF nib. It is a permanent presence in my work bag.
