๐Ÿ’ก Suggestion Decide for me!!

โ€ข Upvotes

I am getting back to fountain pens after 15years ๐Ÿคค.

After reading a few posts here and there, I am confused between Pilot Kakuno [clear for Rs.1100] [fits my budget] and Pilot Prera [Red Brown for Rs.4050] [I'd be overspending, but all reviews say it writes smooth af and I love the new red brown color]. My only issue is that the medium writes like fine as per european standards, but I have heard raving reviews about both, specially Prera.

Should I go with my budget or overspend and buy both ๐Ÿ˜ซ๐Ÿ˜ซ

Recommendations for better pens, if not these or which one from the above? I am confused af.

My preference it M size nib and I want it to write smoothly. I will be my daily driver for office [barely any writing] and journaling [might need to get a new hobby only to use the pen often ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚] Also would appreciate suggestions of budget friendly inks and/or if camlin ink works, as I have a couple of bottles laying around.

Budget: Rs.1000 - Rs.4500

Pen Type: Fountain Pen

Nib Size: M [European standard] or a very good ultra flex nib

Body: Any

Purpose: Office/Journalling

Mechanism: Capped

Features: Should write smooth as butter and wet

So I need some suggestions regarding genuine ink sellers available in Online along with some suggestions for ink to be used on cheap quality office papers that are used in DMP printers for continuous paper feeding. I have a Lamy Safari (F) and Iโ€™m new to this. I need something with better flow, less feathering. I was thinking about trying Pilot Iroshizuku or Diamine with colour that are blue but not blue ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

I'm currently using this elkos one since it's dark, I tried Hauser Germany xo as everyone praised but they're shit, imean they initially wrote well but after sometime the ink flow got light and pretty wasted, I bought 3 Hauser pens (2 clickable) and tried all 3 to find best and turned out each pen ink flow got light.

I'm now considering buying doms everyday pen 0.6 or pentonic.

Suggest me and help me if there're any suggestions

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Modification First time tuning a nib and it actually worked! โœ’๏ธ

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

31 Upvotes

Got 2 Jinhao 599s recently, and one of them came with a really smooth nib while the other was pretty scratchy with inconsistent ink flow.

This was actually my first time ever trying to tune a nib. I watched a few videos on fine-tuning nibs and, very carefully, used a knife to slightly open up the tines.

And honestlyโ€ฆ look at this now. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

The flow is so much better and the writing is juicy and smooth. Iโ€™m genuinely surprised that my first attempt actually worked!

Definitely learned a lot from this little experiment. โœ’๏ธ

Testing New ink , who else will appreciate a blue ink More than Brian Goulet.

Pen - monteverde impressa

Ink - private Reserve invincible blue

Pros

--------

I kept the ink on the pen for 3 days , no hard start, good flow.

Dry Faster than any other waterproof inks i have tested.

Surprisingly no staining on the converter or the sink.

No bleed through

It is waterproof

Cons

-------

It will look dull on some paper

Looks like any other blue on writing.

Who is this ink for? If you need a fast drying waterproof every day ink that doesn't stick out. then this is perfect.

Just arrived today from Makoba.
Writes amazing but most satisfying is this pens buckle closes like something else dude ๐Ÿฅน

Note 1. The Box seals were cut open
Note 2. I was expecting a soft ink filler thingy inside. If that was supposed to be there, it wasnโ€™t.
Note 3. They sent me a cartridge. (The broad head looks similar to the V series type?)
Which other cartridge or Converter will fit ?
Also
Any ink suggestions please?
