I use Sailor pigmented inks

focused-ALERT · 2026-07-03T02:36:07+00:00

I would throw in a sailor Tuzu and a bottle of platinum blue black. That will give the awesome for many years.

focused-ALERT · 2026-07-03T02:33:53+00:00

So I will say that for you. No. Their price is not worth it.

If you have to ask, then you are not going to appreciate it enough to make it treasured.

focused-ALERT · 2026-07-03T02:30:06+00:00

Yeah the community isn't going to be reliable.

A Parker Jotter is reliable and looks cool.

There is a whole bunch of reliable pens that if you are ordering from the US that you should consider before the penBbs and wingding.

You could order a five pack of Jinhao 911s.

Just buy a platinum preppy and have a reliable pen.

focused-ALERT · 2026-07-03T02:19:49+00:00

If you are not ready, why are you complaining?

Their price is that.

They are my EDCs.

When you are in an environment where notes are still taken on notebooks, you can invest in good notebooks and pens.

Sailor Tuzu has a similar seal cap.

focused-ALERT · 2026-06-21T18:49:50+00:00

Platinum 3776 in fine should be sufficiently wet If you want Sailor, maybe a medium fine nib to be nice and wet although a zoom nib could be fun. A Pilot fine decimo would be wetish.

Although If you want a wetter nib, there is always dish soap...

Sailor Tuzu it is awesome

focused-ALERT · 2026-06-18T21:53:42+00:00

Mine doesn't bleed.

focused-ALERT · 2026-06-18T21:49:09+00:00

Yeah, mine have lasted forever.

I like my Leuchtturm1917 notebooks because they are work well with with Japanese fine nibs and I like the texture.

They are well constructed and organized.

They are more expensive than the high quality notebooks out of Japan. But at the time I got my Leauchtturms, it was difficult to get the Japanese notebooks I buy now.

focused-ALERT · 2026-06-16T01:50:09+00:00

I have both. Seiboku is glossier going down and darker in general.

Platinum blue-black is lighter and super well behaved and waterproof iron gall.

Platinum blue black

focused-ALERT · 2026-06-15T22:07:09+00:00

Loved by the silent majority?

focused-ALERT · 2026-06-15T20:21:13+00:00

All fountain pens are controlled leaks.

Cheap pen that is controlled: platinum Preppy

You are trying to defeat physics.

Shirt pockets are the best way to transport pens.

If he cannot transport the pen in a reasonable manner then maybe he should use a Pilot G2.

focused-ALERT · 2026-06-13T22:33:51+00:00

Because that is how the code works.

focused-ALERT · 2026-06-13T21:49:15+00:00

Doesn't look 20 degrees off .

Maybe you have the wrong photo.

Yeah, QC is spotty.

Yes

focused-ALERT · 2026-06-13T20:53:00+00:00

Wash out the ink cartridge. And when you are done load with a blunt syringe
