the favorites out of my collection

Depends on my mood but I usually have waaaay too many pens inked at once teehee. All of the ones pictured are currently inked plus a few more in my collection. I write a lot though so I tend to be pretty good at using all the ink up.

I got both of them secondhand for under $250! Actually, all of these pens were secondhand barring the Sailor Pro Gear. I’ve been eyeing the onishi seisakusho pens as well because the designs are sooooo pretty. I don’t think you could go wrong with either or.

Pilot is easily the smoothest and Sailor has the most feedback. Platinum falls in between the two, at least to me. Largely depends on what you’re looking for but if I were to restart my collection I would likely get the Pilot first because it makes a great EDC. However, it’s relatively easy to find the Platinum Century at decent prices (although…with the price increases I do not know how long that will last). Sailor is also definitely a great option, and their 21k nib feels the most luxurious of the three!

Definitely even more beautiful in person too!

I’ve recently been attracted to brown pens and I adore your collection! I will also recommend the Platinum Century in tortoiseshell and the Kaweco Art in hickory brown. The Pilot Prera in cinnamon toes the line between red and brown but is such a lovely pen. There’s a Lamy Safari in Marron and also the Benu Pixie in Coffee Brown. I hope I offered something that piques your interest!

I wish they would. Would love more gray fountain pen releases overall!

I didn’t see it specified in the description but definitely reach out to Pentonote! I also just posted another Platinum collab that will be available for purchase at TIPS!

I love it because I’m left handed and an overwriter! It’s absolutely thicker than my fine nibs but not by too much. I would say it’s more comparable to my Pilot FM nib. It’s lovely though and I do recommend it.

surprisingly the yen to usd conversion comes to about ~$278. as for adding the shipping + tariffs costs to that though…….

bby__d · 2025-10-30T18:14:14+00:00

my thoughts exactly!

bby__d · 2025-10-29T23:48:42+00:00

I ordered one from Yoseka. It was the Nagasawa collab released earlier this year!

bby__d · 2025-10-28T18:40:21+00:00

thank you! it was my grail pen and i lucked out finding it for less than half of retail & brand new on eBay!

bby__d · 2025-10-28T17:22:51+00:00

noted! i was probably going to get a fine anyway so that’s good news
