JESUS CHRIST died for us on a cross for our sins. 3 days after his death he resurrected and was, is, and will be The LIVING GOD. Repent from your sins and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior in a prayer and also ask for the HOLY SPIRIT to come into you in that same prayer as well and have FAITH in JESUS CHRIST. You could come to Jesus Christ as you are, but once you accept Him, you have to become new, change, and be born again, and also turn away from your wicked ways. Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. God Bless You. The Bible is the true word of God. Please read the Bible and you will see Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

Many of these are good buys and some of my own favorites. I got the chance to try the $2000 Namiki at a pen show and was VERY glad I didn't like it....but now the $700 Ishime is on my wish list and I didn't know that existed before. That's like saving $1300, right?

The only one on the list I own is the Lamy Vista. I bought it as a way to say thank you for all the free content you produce for us! I tend to get my pens in EF/F, but for the Vista I got B, and I finally see what all the fuss about shading is. 😊🖋 Thanks for scheduling this video to drop on Friday, to fill the void of the missing pencast 😅I hope you're all having a lovely time off. See you next week!

+1 for the Vista. I got it with a medium nib 'cause I found the fine on my Lamy Safari to be a bit too scratchy. Vista is now my favorite fountain pen.

My TWSBI DIAMOND 580ALR arrived a couple of weeks ago and I'm loving it. I'm using Diamine's Ancient Copper. I didn't buy the pen because i was a fan of fountain pens. It was recommended to me by my doctor because im developing arthritis in my wrist, and I do a lot of writing. Unlike his usual advice i actually followed through lol. Went through a few hiccups with cheap nasty pens but then discovered your videos on the 580. Life is so much easier now.

[@dennismullins1799]

You should follow the lead of the automotive manufactures who list their sales figures by make and models, not colors. and list the top selling pens also by make and models, all regardless of color or nib combinations. It's not a fair comparison to compare pens that only come in one or two colors with models that have over a dozen colors, etc. You get my point. Thanks, it was still an interesting little video and made me click.

[@bellboots]

Diplomat Magnum and Traveler are so underrated. Get them before you start collecting Pilots and Sailors.

[@GuitARPlayr100]

I own a few Pilots and Sailors, as well as pens from several other major brands as well. And absolutely the Diplomat Magnum punches WAY above its price point. I currently own two, and though very light, they don't feel flimsy or cheap. And they write way better than they have any right to considering their price point.

I'm really suprised to not see any Faber Castell, Parker, or Waterman's mentioned. Though I'm a bit bias towards them. My first fountain was a Graf Von Faber Castel and my pen store sells mostly French and German pens. I was dlighted to see some pilot's in the store today though.

[@kinslowrainer3982]

Interesting, but probably less useful because it was done by color. Lumping all the colorways into one category and picking the pen which falls under the umbrella model would've been more useful.

[@Innenwelterleben]

When my friend’s mother died, 10 years after his father died (a CEO of a company mining salt) we cleaned out the house. We filled dozens of large bags and during helping out I found an interesting looking fountain pen, red/brownish body with golden tip, very simple, and I thought it looked really nice and special. I handed it over to my friend who grabbed it and threw it into a trash bag together with hundreds of other markers, pens and office supplies. I haven’t stopped thinking about this innocent looking pen with its golden tip ever since. Just now I stumbled upon this video and finally can say, uh, what a bad decision, the fountain pen that went into the trash looked exactly like this Namiki Royal. RIP

My mom surprised me with a Diplomat Magnum in that very color which pairs perfectly with the Organic Studio's Nitrogen ink. They were meant for each other.

[@ZiaLinkZen]

I love "Nitro" sheen in a pen of similar color but it's a "Divine Levine" V169 (sounds better than Asvine) LOVE Drew's top seller list, and will buy something again soon to support our FAVE pen friends. BUT, under $10 I would put the Jinhao 82 which has converter and is awesomely priced in a plethora of color combos. Next would be my lovely White Tiger Pilot Metro, and believe it or not I acquired a NEW Pilot e95 (authentic not fake) with gold nib for under $100!! AND, found a Visconti Eco-logic Rembrandt Gray (M), hope that's not mushy. It's on its way for my Bday 😄 I'm yet to spend over $100 on an FP during my current 2022/23 frenzy as I learn which pens have M/F nib -- in some that's a Fine but Pilot M in steel is perfect, the gold would have been better in Fine.

[@Slinky_Loki1967]

I know its probably not objectively the best pen in regards to performance/quality/nib, etc, but I splurged on a Benu Euphoria in Iced Caramel Latte and every time I look at it I get this silly little smile. Sometimes there's a pen in a specific little niche that just absolutely hits the mark for a specific person. (That and the Lamy Safari. I just absolutely adore the Safari for every day carrying around and my Benu for when I want to feel more fancy.)

[@dacksonflux]

I had no idea the Diplomat Magnum had a secret bounce to it. I just like the look of the pen and have been eying it as of late. Now, I'm eying it even harder.

[@sandrapawula4109]

It's not easy to find pens with bold nib options. I followed your advice and ordered the Diplomat Magnum. Sorry to say, it is a huge disappointment. The grip section has ridges that make it very uncomfortable to hold, much less write with. The pen body is weirdly shaped with a narrow end. But since I post my pens, that shouldn't make a difference. Except when you post this pen, it become back heavy. As to the nib, I didn't notice any bounce. Even in a nib it makes noise when it writes like feedback. This purchase was a complete loss in my book. I'm glad I didn't spend much money on the pen. I still love Goulet Pens; just hate this pen.

[@blktauna]

Kakuno for life. Hilariously I neither own nor like any of the popular ones. Except Irushi but that's art more than pen.

[@Sonicman415]

You once helped me when you were in customer service, I’d ordered a Lamy 2000 w a medium nib, but we were in full pandemic mode and the mail was wonky.. my pen didn’t arrive in a timely manner and I was worried it has gotten lost. You assured me things would be okay, as it was covered if lost, but also that it was probably on its way. Being my first big pen purchase, you also assured me that the M nib was a great choice😎✌🏽😎 you were absolutely correct.. now own I the rollerball and pencil to match. I also had the nib ground to a CI by a famous nib grinder at a pen show late last year. It’s still such a great pen to write with, even more fun w the custom grind. I fill it w Diamine Monboddos Hat 😁😀😁 Thanks for the help Drew! You’re a dude.

[@djcobp]

I can’t even begin to agree with you on these choices, but your opinion is your opinion. I think everybody is going to have their favorite in all of those different categories. None of these are very good looking except the Amber and gold pen. I really put 50% into looks and style, and then of course the other 50% into workability and writing pleasure, which encompasses many many facets if writing. ✍️. Smoothness is one. I cant take any scratchiness. I personally like a fine nib. I cant stand to look at blotchy paper, or large ink soaked lines. The nib needs to be bendable, and of good metal so it lasts a very long time, like gold, but not too high solid gold, ir it will bathroom! Too soft. One of my favorite nibs was the older Cross 14k solid gold nibs from the 1980’s i believe it was. It had just the right bend-ability. And to show you how good they were, just look at how many are still on the market. It was backed up by some of the smartest pen people in the industry. More later :)

FP made of solid brass and real wood in an adorable pocket size. It's my daily driver, even if I own a real MontBlanc (gift from my father). I'm also waiting for a x159 for about 9$ cdn (6$ Us, ship incl).

[@djcobp]

I would like to hear more on nibs, which are the most important part of the fountain pen. As far as the best ink goes, I vote for Lamy by far. Design and looks goes to the Cross Peerless and Townsend Fountain Pens. They are very stylish, but i would opt for a better nib, or look for the Cross 14k solid gold nibs from the 80’s. So design=Cross, Ink=Lamy, but I’m still up in the air about the best nib. I like fine, but everyone has their own favorite.
