    Useful info. Thank you. I have a few Tactile Turns and just bought a Bastion as I like some of the Parker-style refills. I'm waiting for it to arrive so I can see what I think. I ordered some little things from Tactile Turn that will adapt their pens to use Parker refills so I want to try that. The Bastion will have a hard time taking over from the Tactile Turn for me as I like it very much. Thanks for your video.

    Some tips from someone who actually used this stupid case: You do not have to open it to take the pen in or out and you can can „clip“ the cartridge protector over the cartridges, thus fully grabbing them - there no point to this, but if feels nice to do.

    Just a few weeks ago I bought another Montblanc Traveler pen with the case. Just like you I was curious it was fake or not, because I did not see any metal ring around the star and the star was not alined. I was just searching on the internet if my one is original; or not. Because you mention that you had seen ones without the metal ring around the star, I directed my attention to the stars in the photos and noticed what you said. I had never noticed this before. These cases were made to protect 147 Traveler somewhere around 1993-1997, if I'm not mistaken. That is why they are hard. If you want, you can soften them with bitter almond oil, or almond oil.or cream.

    • @Reflekks
      @Reflekks 7 місяців тому

      I’ve found it depends on the ink. I never had any problems with burping or leaking, aside from a few teeny drops in the cap after jostling the pen, until I inked it with Edelstein Golden Beryl. That ink really just loves to get in the cap.

    Archival is that its Ph neutral. Non Ph neutral inks and paper degrade over time. Go into your grandads library and pick out an old book. If it was made of pulp the paper will be yellow and brittle because the Ph of the paper is too low. It will kind of smell like almonds ;p

    Did you find this red to be a good shade for your Christmas letters? I'm getting some soon for my December journaling ink set. From what I can tell, it will be on theme, but "strawberry" isn't exactly a name that conjures Christmas memories.

    • @Reflekks

    I have the case with the snowflake surrounded in black without the silver ring, and it is also misaligned. My case is also very stiff and I feel like it will crack, which is why I never use it. I have another single pen case with the flap at the top and it too is very stiff. Another Montblanc case I don't use because I really feel it will crack to to the leather being so stiff.

  • @themisterchristie

    The Jinhao is actually a very nice pen, in my experience the problem comes to quality control sometimes being inconsistent. I have 3 Jinhao 80s, two work great, the third has drying and flow issues. I've had my all black for a little more than a year and it's holding together very well.

    Constructive critique: I stopped watching at the 5 minute mark as you were still speaking about refills. My suggestion is that you work up a script before shooting the video, that way your presentation is not as wordy and may hold a viewers attention much better. Good luck, hope you have lots of success in the future.

I also has a Parker vector besides the 15. I thought the 15 was a vector. Until a dealer told me otherwise. I don't know about the 2008none but the one from the 80s is a tank. I learned to write with it and used it every day as a kid and it still writes fine at 35. The pen is about 48 years old
