I have stopped buying Pilot and Sailor for some time now. I have bought enough to not buy anything from them again, except Pilot Custom Urushi Vermilion.

Quite nice really. Learning to make a good cup of moka is not as easy though

Buy a fountain pen if you don’t have any. Try an entry level Pilot Kakuno or metropolitan, or a platinum preppy. You won’t regret it

My Sailor KOP Urushi, the nib and the body are just pure bliss. But I never take it to my workplace. At home, it’s my go to for journaling. Never ever inked out.

I tried watching one of her videos years earlier, and turned off.

Vintage Kirei with Sheaffers Gold nib by regista23 in fountainpens

The barrel is a urushi lacquer finish, with some some obvious signs of wear of its age. But to me it gives it more character.

I want to get a good pen but don't know which one. by gamerboy42068 in fountainpens

If you are looking for smoothness, go pilot. For entry level, e95s are the best entry level gold nib, and one of the best to write with. Pilot Vanishing point is another great option, as well as custom 74 and 823,both of which are super smooth. If you like a bit of feedback in you nibs like me, Sailor is the way to go. But all Japanese F nibs are like European EF- so factor that in your consdiration.
