patek777
Is it true that so called international size ink cartridges fit every single
WATERMAN pen.
I know that WATERMAN cartridges are longer.

Parker 51 - italic nib ? by
Andy Dingley
I like my 51s as pieces of design, but unfortunately I'm not too keen
on writing with them. The nibs are a little too broad for my taste (my
writing tends to the unitdy and this makes it worse), and they all
write like a firehose.
I'm also trying to learn an italic hand - currently using a...

Waterman Elite 2 vs Phileas? by
Nic
Hello,
I was wondering how the Elite 2 compares to the Phileas in
terms of nib quality, smoothness, construction? (I have a Phileas
so I am familiar with that pen.)

the flow compare with Quink and/or PR Tanzanite?
Thanks,

lapping film? by
David P
I'm considering trying to smooth one of my nibs a bit. Having read up a
bit on the subject it seems that people like the 3M lapping sheets
(1M?). I've done some google'ing (froogle'ing too), and I haven't found
an obvious place from which to order the sheets.
Can they be found locally? Home...

New Triumph Imperials at Arcamax??? by
morten
Here's the ad.
http://arcamax.com/cgi-bin/shop?cat=1001&cid=10280291-1945746748&cpg=1&offer=cs11418
I didn't think Sheaffer made Triumph nibs anymore. Is this Arcamax
making a mistake? Or are there new in box Triumphs still around? If
so, I'll take 5 of them.

Diamine Inks by
Tom Piercy
In response to Bernie's query about Stone Inks, I am replying under a
new thread. I got finger trouble when I initiated what I originally
thought was a new thread but then found it appearing under the thread
"Mont Blanc P146". Sorry about that, tap1n, whoever you are.
Stone Inks are not a name...

Armstom, something else to think about by
JCC
check out the return options with the place from which you buy your
pen. modern FP's sometimes come with problems. Don't get me wrong.
I don't mean all the time, but a place like Staples will replace a pen
without blinking an eye and so in one day you could easily check to
see if the problem is...

REAL Writer's Pen by
morten
Much has been written in these interesting and valuable posts about
pens. Many though are written based on qualifications like
appearance, nib quality, ink flow, collectibility, value, etc. Good
OBJECTIVE standards of the elements of a pen I suppose.
But I'm not sure, based on what I've read,...

I've noticed a disturbing development - sandwiched between the juvenile
rantings of a guy named Sheldon and the latest pictures of some young man's
underage sister getting it on with a same sex partner from a different
