Parker Frontier Stainless Steel Chrome Trim Fountain Pen Medium Point Review

Parker Frontier Stainless Steel Chrome Trim Fountain Pen Medium Point
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The re-encarnation of the Parker 51.
An entry level pen that I got for 7 euros and pleased me.
This is a stainless steel version, a bit heavier than the plastic ones and a bit too heavy for me. I prefer the ABS plastic ones.
However the SS pen is a great pen for the price. The nib is rated as medium but I agree that is a bit broad. Writes softly and smoothly. The other Frontier I have, a ChromaFlair with plastic barrel, has a fine nib and is better suited to my wrting. In any case Parker nibs are broader than the rest.
Overall I think for the price the Frontier line is better than other Parker's lines like the Vector or the Jotter.
Writing with fountain pen is a pleasure...

Noodlers Ink Fountain Pen, Piston Fill, CLEAR DEMO Review

Noodlers Ink Fountain Pen, Piston Fill, CLEAR DEMO
Average Reviews:

Just got this pen a few days ago. Pleasantly surprised by the quality -- Noodlers lives up to its name. A great choice for anyone who is looking for the ink capacity of a piston filler, but doesn't want to carry around an expensive pen everyday. Filling mechanism is as smooth as either Lamy or Pelikan. Nib is a bit of thick fine (medium-fine.) Very happy overall. If you're looking for something in the Lamy Safari range that has a bit more classic look, integrated fill mechanism, and a bit smaller and lighter this is a fine choice.

Yes, that is what I said, ergonomic awesomeness. Yeah, its just a pen, but at the same time, it will rock you in the face with its coolness. The barrel is insanely comfortable, the ink flows like water and dries like the desert sun. It will will rock your world. Enough said.

Pelikan 4001 Ink Turquoise 62.5ml/2oz Review

Pelikan makes my favorite inks; both the colors and inks are my ideal. I like a lot of other inks for the color varity: Noodler's, Sheaffer Skrip, Lamy, Private Reserve, Monteverde, Preppy, yet Pelikan remains my favorite particularly in pens that struggle with other inks. The ink writes smoothly, the colors are vibrant, and the shading is noticable. If you like to see shading in your handwriting, you need to try a bottle of Pelikan! My favorites are Royal Blue and Turquoise.

Noodler's Apache Sunset Fountain Pen Ink Review

Lovely gold with reddish shading. Smooth. I have used it in a fine nib Sheaffer and a wet (wider) Waterman. The shading shows better with the heavier line. Noodler's is a fine, safe (pH balanced) ink. This color is not "waterproof" and cleans up easily.

Noodlers Ink Fountain Pen, Piston Fill, Navy Blue Review

I bought this pen because of the mandarin yellow colo, since I don't want to choose between the Parker duofold and rent and utilities. It's enjoyable to write with, and a real bargain.
Back in the late 70s, you could buy a Sheaffer fountain pen for 5 bucks or so, write the heck out of it, and buy another. This pen reminds me of those days.

Noodlers Ink Fountain Pen, Piston Fill, Turquoise Review

Noodlers Ink Fountain Pen, Piston Fill, Turquoise
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I heartily salute this pen, which embodies everything that inexpensive fountain pens used to be, but this one was made to much more demanding specs. It doesn't drip, at all. It doesn't let out great blobs of ink. Its reservoir is large enough that you won't have to refill very frequently, and it even stays ready to write when left uncapped for 15-20 minutes or more.
The installed nib is quite stiff, and not prone to much play, so if you enjoy signing things with a flourish, it will take some fiddling. (Or a second fountain pen with a broader nib.)
However, as a workaday fountain pen, there is none better. Do yourself a favor, and pick one up today.
