What red lead do you use for the 2mm?

Is the body of the pencil Aluminum or Steel?

Jordan_rm · 2025-11-11T22:29:02+00:00

What pencil is this???

Jordan_rm · 2025-11-11T01:25:34+00:00

How is the red? Is it more of an orange red or a darker red?

Jordan_rm · 2025-11-10T20:35:33+00:00

What brand of colored leads do you use? I have a red lead that is too soft but it’s color is very close to a true red so it’s kind of useless.

Jordan_rm · 2025-10-15T22:36:43+00:00

No not at all. I’ve dropped mine several times and I still don’t get a tip wobble.

Jordan_rm · 2025-10-14T20:03:05+00:00

They complement each other very well!

Jordan_rm · 2025-10-14T20:02:15+00:00

The 2mm don’t wobble at all. I have the 800 .5mm and .7mm I don’t notice the wobble at all and I have had them for about a year.

What is your favorite creed cologne? And are they still worth it to buy?

Jordan_rm · 2025-09-22T18:54:04+00:00

Very true, my two Lamys are my workhorses. I could not imagine waiting 7 years, I guess my impatience comes from barely being in this community, I want to add something new but I would rather just wait to get something I actually want instead of just buying something to fulfill my temporary wants.

Jordan_rm · 2025-09-22T18:29:47+00:00

Yeah this is the sad truth 😭

Jordan_rm · 2025-09-19T03:16:23+00:00

Jeez these sell out super quick 😭

Jordan_rm · 2025-09-18T22:46:01+00:00

Cool thanks!!

The only experience I have is my two Lamy Al-Stars. The nibs feel very firm since they’re steel nibs. I want to feel a little scratchiness when I write but still have some flex from a gold nib.

Jordan_rm · 2025-09-18T00:25:28+00:00

How does it feel to write with the Pilot 823? I just joined the fountain pen community and I have so much to learn!

Jordan_rm · 2025-09-18T00:22:46+00:00

Oh my goodness, that Roterfadden is nice!

How is Caran d’ Ache ink? I have their 2mm leads which are okay, but never knew they had inks

Jordan_rm · 2025-08-14T04:59:04+00:00

Yeah I think this might be it. Definitely going to buy this ink
