Pelikan Shanghai by Michael Guterman
I just got my Shanghai from Pam Braun. It was a pleasure to deal with her. Not only the lowest price by a substantial margin, but an incredibly pleasant person to deal with. The pen is absolutely beautiful. Very un Pelikan like in color. I haven't inked it yet, but heck, it's a Pelikan. I...

My pen flushing blues by R. Paul Martin
So one of my Rotring Cores, the one that doesn't skip, used up its entire long international cartridge of Waterman Florida Blue ink. I figured it's time to try out the only other blue ink I have, some Swisher blue/black. I was able to wash out the cartridge pretty easily. I've done it with the...

Pelikan 605 or Parker Sonnet or Something Cheaper ? by e.m. redding
I'm buying my first fountain soon and I'd like to hear your opinion of the relative merits of the Pelikan 605 and Parker Sonnet, and of cheaper varieties as well. I borrowed my friend's Mont Blanc 146 (yeah, precious resin, as subsequent research has shown) and was really impressed by the feel of...

Fake Sonnets? by Jack Harrell
I've seen a lot of "Parker Sonnets" on E-Bay lately that look a little different than the last model of Sonnets. I've picked up several for $20 a piece. The stripping is more horizontal and less marble looking. Many of them are being sold from vendors in Hong Kong. I've been assuming that these...

How many 'collect' non-functioning pens? by Curtis L. Russell
Just curious. For a long time I only had functioning pens, mostly new. Maybe buying a couple of more flexible older(working) pens was the beginning of the dam breaking, but lately I've purchased four pens, all older, all non-functioning. None of them cost over $ 10 and they all were different in at...

Meisterstuck 12 question by Dominic Hurley
Hi all What are Montblanc Meisterstuck 12 pens like? There's one coming up in an auction near me soon. I'm assuming this is a vintage Montblanc and therefore good quality. It has a left oblique nib and appears to be in good working order. Cosmetically, it looks very good. I'm not actually a fan of...

Omas 557-S by Jack Harrell
Hmmm, this pen collecting stuff is WAY too addictive...and confusing for newbies. Just purchased on E-Bay what was supposed to be an Omas 360 pen. It is not. The side of it says Omas 557-S and, quite frankly, it looks much chaper than I expected considering how highly everyone here spoke of Omas....

Pelikan pens: quality & nib size (Technixx & Souveran 400, 600) by Txiasaeia
Two and a half years ago, I made my first foray into the world of fountain pens, buying a Pelikan Technixx with a medium nib. I was happy at first, but now the paint is flaking off and there are serious problems with ink flow, as in sometimes it doesn't at all. I clean the nib every two cartriges...
