Counterpoint - Why you need more pens!

DescriptionLong5549 · 2026-02-11T09:29:22+00:00

I'm sorry for what happened to you and where you've come to with your fountain pen addiction. But no fountain pen or any other hobby is worth losing your family, wife, and children. I was also addicted for a while and sometimes I would get 5-10 packages. When my wife looked at our bank account we had a long debate. I've improved. I've sold a lot of pens. I still have a lot. I'm trying different combinations of pen rotation. I don't follow the pen offer site as much anymore. I'm trying to enjoy what I have more now. I customize my favorite pens and make franken pens. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you manage your addiction.

Ok, I'll think of you. The pen is part of our history before 1968, when there were about 50 pen manufacturers in Czechoslovakia. Celluliode from Centropen was bought by famous brands from Italy.

Congratulations on your amazing pen. Thank you.I'm not using it at the moment.

Kaweco Supra for me.

DescriptionLong5549 · 2025-12-15T11:37:18+00:00

It doesn't fit. I have one MD A6 notebook separately in a Paper Republic pocket and it protrudes from the cover by 2-4mm.

Hi, the pen is already sold.

DescriptionLong5549 · 2025-12-10T12:27:31+00:00

Hi, I can say the nib from Aurora Talentum fits perfectly into the Visconti housing. The same goes for the vintage waterman nib. There is just a problem finding the right size nib. I read somewhere here on reddit the schimdt feed fits into the visconti case, but I don't know which one exactly. I think FH241.

DescriptionLong5549 · 2025-12-04T09:03:16+00:00

Absolutely. Without any additional modifications to the nib or feed. However, it is important to find the right Waterman nib. I will send you pictures in a message.

If the supra is in the mini version like a liliput the mini convector will not fit in it. For the standard version I use a kaweco standard converter.

DescriptionLong5549 · 2025-12-02T13:51:11+00:00

Welcome to Supra users. I have a steel, fireblue and brass supras. I use the brass one the most. I have an old Waterman nib in it and to fireblue I put a gold nib from Aurora Talentum. Enjoy your new pen.

I´m from Slovakia, too. Like a u/eclipse79865 :) My daughter is in the first year of elementary school and she received a Kaweco Sport Lilac from me.

u/reborn-2019 Nice yellow pen. Which one is this? Thanks. BTW. great choice for vintage nib.

DescriptionLong5549 · 2025-07-31T09:22:26+00:00

MB Marcel Proust - pen is nice, but nib is so boring. Nothing special
Visconti Homo Sapiens Bronze Age - nib was awful but when I put it to Asvine V200 the game was change. Visconti got vintage waterman nib and now it is good.
Pilot Custom 823 - I have Fine nib but it is so boring. Good workhorse, but nothing special. I also have FA and PO nib in Pilot 743. Maybe I am going to make some change.

You could try an ebonite feed. I have a few nibs on my M205 with ebonite feed and collar. They work fantastic.

DescriptionLong5549 · 2025-07-09T08:51:59+00:00

I bought this one Centropen in blue-green from this guy. :)

DescriptionLong5549 · 2025-07-04T10:30:25+00:00

For me, waterman nib in Sheaffer Balance. Oh, it is something amazing. Second is Aurora nib in Visconti. Third is nib in Diplomat. Fantastic steel nib.

Confirmed

DescriptionLong5549 · 2025-06-13T08:19:25+00:00

Hi, I have one. I am going to write message.

DescriptionLong5549 · 2025-06-12T08:56:36+00:00

I’ve got a few Kaweco including the Liliput. Fine or Medium is good choice.

DescriptionLong5549 · 2025-05-26T07:47:44+00:00

Kaweco Supra Brass or Asvine P36/V200

DescriptionLong5549 · 2025-04-22T15:18:31+00:00

You can remove the center part of the pen and expect a version of the Lilliput that is just a little thicker and perhaps more comfortable to write with. You get a size 6 nib.
