Closed - Kanwrite Desire And Lincoln Beena - International Group Buy

I'm enjoying the Beena Lincoln. I had to smooth the nib, but with that done it's a nice, solid little Indo-Germanic pen, very comfortable to write with.

Thanks Vaibhav for this group buy. I got my pen yesterday and frankly first impression was not so much exciting (let me admit that pen was much attractive in picture than in physical). But once I filled it and started writing few pages, I was absolutely impressed by it. Grip is very comfortable, and pen is very light weight (real light).

 

I had asked for stub nib but I am not sure if its stub (though its write like it) because 'B' is written on nib.

 

One problem I am having is while using it with converter, I have to push it after regular interval to maintain the ink flow, otherwise ink flow is getting stopped. (Can you help me in solving this issue?)

 

Also, Can I use this as an eyedropper?

 

Overall I am very please with this pen. Here is few mobile snap.

 

Thanks for looking.

 

 

@Sarvesh, glad to hear your pen has arrived - I'm still waiting for mine! [Ordered a flex nib, which meant delayed shipping - then the 'slow boat' to Australia, then customs...]

 

The most likely cause of the slow dry-up you're experiencing is there being some kind of manufacturing oils (or other gunk) caught in the ink feed. If it hasn't resolved itself by the end of your first ink fill, you could try either (1) flushing water repeatedly in and out of the feed; or (2) pulling out the nib and feed, giving the feed a rinse (and/or a gentle scrub with a toothbrush?), and reassembling.

Is there anyone here who have yet to receive their pens or it's shipping information? As much as I appreciate Mehendiratta's time and effort for arranging this group buy, I am completely in the dark about my purchase.

I only got my shipping notification from @mehandiratta on Sunday - so it's possible he'll be in touch with you shortly!

i still haven't gotten my pens. Mr. Mehandiratta responded twice to my queries, telling me he would send confirmation but he has not done so.

 

I sure hope that do come at some point! It's been a long time...

Learning that Jobesmirage in New York received his pens made me apprehensive that by some odd coincidence I might have been left out. Now that I have learnt that there are more enthusiasts like me showing commendable patience, I am also going to display my iron resolve and wait my turn.

  • 2 weeks later...

My 3 Desire pens (plus two spare nibs I requested) finally arrived in the Land Down Under today, along with some spare nibs I requested - they really are beautiful to look at! Haven't had time to ink them up as yet, but am eagerly looking forward to it...
