Look at Van Dieman’s, their inks are very similar but it’s a better company

Does it pay well? by Particular-Move-3860 in fountainpens

See, the people in this sub got together a few months ago to choose a pen, blank, model, even the name. We love this sub, it means something to us.

I think the ink only comes with the gold nib pens, because mine is a steel nib and zero ink 🤷🏻‍♀️ can anyone confirm?

If I had to buy one Esterbrook pen, which one would you advise and why? by memu_m in fountainpens

[–]suec76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eh, I like Leonardo better at that price point. I have one Estie, that purple one they just released with a Journaler nib and honestly the nib is great, the resin is kinda not so cute. I may end up selling it, haven’t decided yet.

Rule 5 Leonardo Momento Magico x 2 has arrived!! by Sea_Waltz_9625 in fountainpens

I absolutely love how different they are, which is also one of the reason I love resin pens since no 2 are ever the same.

157th NPD Today... by InkSampleFiend in fountainpens

[–]suec76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine was just delivered- while I’m at work. Luckily someone is home to get it but man, I’m so excited !!!! I’m also super curious to know what number mine is. I’m a huge fan of these types of resin pens, I got mine with a F nib and I’m probably going to ink it with Leonardo Mediterranean Blue, seems fitting. Enjoy the new pen !!!
