A while back, I can remember reading in the newspaper that some school district here in the Detroit Metro area, placed a ban on students using fountain pens in class, mostly because they can be used as weapons. Can anyone else think of other school systems that have implemented such a ban on these...

Dear Pen Lovers, Writing is one of mankind's greatest skills, for it is script and writing equipment that has enabled our cultural development. The Evolution of the Egyptian reed brush and papyrus into the fountain pen and paper we use today was a regular sequence of improvements to writing...

Hi everyone, I just bought a Rotring 600 Med Nib NOS. Great pen but it's not a good starter. I've tried several different inks and found Parker basic black seems the best. Pelikan and Private Reserve both blues, the worst. But even with the Parker ink it will sometimes still fail to start even in...

I have two sets of two fountain pens each: Waterman Phileas and Waterman Expert II. Each set consistes of one fine nib pen and one medium nib pen. When I pick up the pen I'd like to be able to know which nib I have. How can I mark the pen to be able to know which one I'm picking up? I thought...

Some may remember my posting a couple of months ago about defective non compatible threads of an Acme Pen Quote roller ball cum f/p. Many chimed in with similar QC and a.s.s. issues. Well I am pleased to report that after many emails back and forth to Acme, much frustration and non...

"Researchers have created the world's smallest fountain pen with a tip so tiny it can draw lines a hundred times thinner than a red blood cell." You can read more about it on my weblog, linked below. I'm told that a bottle of Private Reserve ink is expected to last close to 4,000...

I was checking out at my local (Monroeville, PA) Big Lots when I spied a counter display of familiar Rotring Core boxes. Currently, they are selling the rollerball version in the Eternium color scheme. Big Lots is offering the pen for $1.99 each, so I grabbed two. I just wanted to pass the word...

No politics in this post, heh heh. I like the Pelikan Epoch, but I did not pay the full price, and the EF nib is the only one that would suit me. It has a totally different way of loading the cartridge, from the end. It is not often that I receive a new pen and am stumped at how to fill it. ...

Saturday, Oct. 1 saw me attend the North Texas/Dallas Pen Show in Richardson, a suburb of north Dallas, TX. Having attended stamp shows, I expected it to be rather like them except with pens, but it wasn't really. It was significantly smaller than the stamp shows held in Oklahoma City and had much...

It's grown on me now. I can say that it's now one of my most liked pens. It's comfortable to hold. It's no-nonsense. It's a good enough writer. It's nice in black.

I've had a significant problem with STBPens or Victoria British Columbia. If you are thinking about a purchasing something from him, please drop me a line back channel. Lou Kidder

HAve someone compare this two types of inks as contrakt inks? I know paper sheets with different inks and noodlers. The noodlers ink is the only one who passed the tests. What is with typical iron gall inks like MB BB or R&K "Salix (Blueblack)? Alfred

The new Montblanc Racing Green is as close to a dead ringer for Noodler's Sequoia as I have ever seen ink any two inks. I mean, identical in tone, shade, and intensity. Is this a coincidence, or has Montblanc joined the ranks of Noodler's fans? Nathan?

I've never owned a Cartier pen before. Last year, I received a Cartier Santos gold plated pen as a gift. However, the pen tip started slowly "sinking." If I twist the end now to bring the tip out, the tip only comes out about 1/2 mm. Is this normal? There still seems to be plenty of ink...
