I really enjoy your videos so much, your energy is so peaceful ahahaha. It's funny because I really love the size and feel of the Twsbi Eco, so I wonder how I would do with one of these pocket pens, if I would find them too small or discover an appreciation for their subtlety. Thanks for the video!

I love it when you exclaim 'how cute they are together!' when you place the Kaweco. :) I agree. I do collect pocket pens, and they are certainly cute! I do like this new Sailor. Screw to post can be a bit irksome, so if I'm writing longer and will need to pause for thought, I favour my Sport, as it's easier to recap, and less prone to drying.

I love TWSBI pens as well. I like low maintenance, non-fussy writing tools, so I love being able to see the ink level and color from the outside. I don't have to remember when it was last filled and with what. The ink doesn't dry up and flushes out well. They write smooth and are budget- friendly, too!

I love TWISBI pens as well, they are so smooth to write with even when taking quick notes. The only problem with them if I find even their fine bibs are too thick for me and lay down too much ink on my moleskine notebook so I tend to use the Kaweco Sport for that so as to avoid page bleed through. The TWISBI pens and my Conklin are great for longer periods of writing though.

My go-to pen is still the first TWSBI Eco I got, a translucent orange in fine. I did recently get a Lamy Safari, which I love, but I haven't used it a lot lately. The Pelikan M400 is one of my grail pens! I love how they look. Basically all of the Pelikans look amazing to me. A little out of my price range, alas.

The mini converters for the Sailor Mini is teeny, holds almost no ink. I am using the Sailor Shikiori cartridges. They come in a cute little 3-pack, nice colors and can be refilled. The Sailor cartridges are quite generous. Goulet Pens has them.

@adventuredenali
@adventuredenali 3 жыл бұрын
Some more than others, the hard medium fine nibs found on their pro gear slim and mini is a bit more feel back-y. But, with a little micro mesh, you can easily smooth it out if that’s something that bothers you. They’re not scratchy though, I think that’s an important distinction.

I find the TWSBIs to be aesthetically unappealing (except that you get to see the beautiful ink sloshing around inside) but they are amazing writers. I do love them. I like broad and stub nibs, and TWSBI's are wonderful. I don't have a Sailor. YET. Someday.

I hate to be “that guy”. But you’ve made an error in naming the Sailor. It’s he Pro Gear SLIM Mini, not PG Mini. Sailor does make a Pro Gear mini, it’s the thickness and cap design of the pro gear standard but in mini length. It is a rare model but it does exist. So, i suggest you update your tittles. To avoid confusion.
