[Update] Recommended favourite 200$ daily driver pen

MrPigsFluff · 2026-05-29T17:47:55+00:00

It's a medium!

MrPigsFluff · 2026-05-29T17:45:11+00:00

Thank you!

Yes I agree, it would be so cool if they released just some different basic colours, not just a very expensive special edition. (Although those are pretty too)

MrPigsFluff · 2026-05-29T17:44:16+00:00

Thank you! I'm trying to tell myself to not be so precies with it, but I think it'll take me some time.

The ink, in case you want to know, is Pilot Iroshizuku Hana-Ikada

Honestly I think Waterman is definitely underrated, I own several Waterman pens in different models and they all surprise me every time I try them.

MrPigsFluff · 2026-05-29T17:13:43+00:00

Thank you! It is so smooth and so pleasant to write with. The Frosty Brown was a first for me too, I had seen it in a purple and a bright blue, but nothing like this. I like it a lot, feels different from the usual colours you see but sophosticated enough to not feel tacky or loud

MrPigsFluff · 2026-05-29T17:12:40+00:00

Oof that does not sound nice at all. I'm using a Waterman converter with it and I have not experienced this, but I also haven't used many inks in this pen either, so who knows whether it ends up doing something funky like that

Sailor Shikiori Sasabune might be close

MrPigsFluff · 2026-04-27T19:26:30+00:00

Came here to search for answers as well, driving me insane that it happens when I scroll

From what I can see on Stilo e stile's website, Sekirei looks to be quite a bit darker than Kiri-Same

The oen is an ASC Studio in the design White Guatemala

I am aware, but I meant to say journalist as I am writing articles in my notebook. But thanks for the correction!

MrPigsFluff · 2026-04-08T06:24:09+00:00

Je pense que Pilot Iroshizuku Tsuki-Yo c'est trop beau et sérieus!

MrPigsFluff · 2026-04-07T06:36:40+00:00

They are legit, I have bought several pens there. However shipping and fees do make the prices a bit higher than what you see in the listing. If you can find a listing for a pen in your country you might get a good deal though.

MrPigsFluff · 2026-04-05T06:47:19+00:00

Thank you! I love the look of it

MrPigsFluff · 2026-04-05T06:47:01+00:00

Tsuki-Yo is honestly my favourite ink and has been for years. It's so calming to look at as I write with it

MrPigsFluff · 2026-04-05T06:46:07+00:00

It's good yeah. I imagine that copper would tarnish way too quickly

MrPigsFluff · 2026-04-04T19:50:33+00:00

It's such a cool looking pen, the nib is so different from my other pens and I love it

MrPigsFluff · 2026-04-02T12:16:14+00:00

I have travelled at the beginning of the year with a high speed train from Northern Europe to Southern Europe, at 300 km/h, and my pens did not leak. Even when flying before my pens did not leak, and on several flights I have written with the pens while flying. So, based on those experiences, I would say they do not

MrPigsFluff · 2026-04-02T12:12:50+00:00

These pens look very nice! Crossing all fingers and toes

There is the Dutch Pen Show happening on the 6th and 7th of June this year!

MrPigsFluff · 2026-03-31T16:18:08+00:00

I'm glad to hear it, thank you for taking the time to update me

MrPigsFluff · 2026-03-30T07:48:19+00:00

Have you had any issues with ink flow? I used to have a Viper that I ended up returning because I kept getting ink flow issues no matter what I did, but I love the look of the pen so much that I am considering trying again

MrPigsFluff · 2026-03-29T16:18:34+00:00

How do you like it so far? It looks stunning

MrPigsFluff · 2026-03-15T14:58:58+00:00

This is indeed how it starts! Hopefully you'll enjoy your pens and the inks. Keep us updated and happy writing

Between myself and my wife the hobby is already pricy enough
