I always wanted to share my vintage and modern fountain pen collection, so I started this channel to showcase them all, as well as provide comparisons between various models.
All my vintage fountain pen reviews contain interesting historical information about the pen model and the manufacturer.
I also make modern fountain pen reviews, roller ball and ball point pen reviews.
I LOVE VINTAGE FOUNTAIN PENS AND I WANT TO SHARE MY PASSION WITH YOU!
I love vintage fountain pen instruments but I also review modern or new fountain pens and other writing instruments.

COVID-19 Update:
Please stay home! In this difficult period as the virus forces us to stay indoors, writing or drawing with a fountain pen can be a plesant and relaxing way to spend our time.
For this purpouse I will make a new series of short videos on my channel: "Fountain Pen Therapy" - indoor exercises with your fountain pens.
Take care of yourself! ♥️

Strange to have gold near the pen while the rest is silver.
Very interesting review, thank you for this presentation! Very important for collectors. The fountain pen has a smart construction that allows good maintenance, very important for conservation over time.
Thanks for your video! In the FPN there is a nice chart to date the 146
@@JavierArellano yes. I know that chart. It is very useful in dating the 146. Thank you for your view! 🙂
Wonderful! Also tell us your occupation....are you a writer?
What a beautiful treasure! You made out well this time. Congratulations 🎊. God bless you always, dear friend. Take care of yourself.
Very nice looking pen.
One of the most eye-catching of the Flaro range! A very nice addition to your collection.
Thank you, my friend! 🙂
Good find my friend. Keep well
@@leebalmforth2269 thank you, my friend! God bless!
Congratulations!! You made a great deal this time too👍
@@kaorumoon16th yes. It is a wonderful pen. I am a lucky collector! 😉
Hi! Very interesting the German mechanical pencil from Reform. Certainly for the colors it has it belongs to the line of the Reform 1745 fountain pen. Excellent purchase! thanks for what you shared.
Thank you. I learned more about Montblanc. Subscribed
The text in the instruction paper is not German. I think it's Dutch. They're sister languages though. :) maybe this model was also for the French and Benelux market.
Oh, i understand your frustration at cracking the Eversharp! Recently, I had fitted a new sac to my Burnham B48, then I cracked a piece of the celluloid off as I tried to reinsert the section 😞
Hy there! I bought one Pelikan M 200 today from the flea market in Calarasi. I payed 2 lei( can you beleive it?) . It is a fine nib, and has a good nice flex.
@@analarisabratu wow! You did well! Congratulations! Un preț fain pentru un stilou nemțesc cu piston. Ați avut baftă! 🙂
I thought that the light blue ballpoint pen you bought at 1 Lei could be used to cheat on the exam...but if I get caught, I'll be twice as angry😂
Thanks for a great video, as always. You bought some real treasures. Take care and God bless you always 🙏 ❤️
@@steventrosiek2623 thank you, my friend! 🙂
DIN on the flaro ballpoint refill means Deutsche Industrie Norm, so id venture that the refill is german manufactured
@@HistoricGentleman wow! Interesting information. Thank you!
УЧИСЬ НА ОТлично 😊 or something like that 😂 STUDY EXCELLENTLY 🎉
@@louishalleux thank you for the information!

You can't replace the mines. The tension spring is wound around the pin which is fixed to the mine. Multiple other factors make it impossible to replace and reassemble it. You will most likely wear out the tension springs in the process, making it unusable.
@@schebbi thank you for this information! 🙂
Lovely collection, I'm very interested in the one with the thicker red lead
I have this pen. Gift form my grandfather
Un stilou prost. Noua ne-a impus la scoala sa fie BIC ca daca este orice alta marca, sa nu il aducem la scoala. Recomand Lamy sau Faber Castell. Inclusiv elevii mei sunt nemultumiti de el, nu am niciun elev caruia sa ii fi functionat stiloul pe o perioada mai mare de 2 luni de zile. Se intrerupe continuu pana cand nu mai scrie deloc.
@@Torra27 vă mulțumesc pentru informația interesantă! Trebuie să mărturisesc că nu am folosit acest stilou decât în ziua recenziei. Poate se autosesizează producătorul și va aduce îmbunătățiri modelului.
Hi great pen collector. I have some pens looking that way, and I think it is a german pen.I have a Argument Full Fix fountain pen 1938 looks similar I have 2 pens with this lion nib and that is how I found this youtube movie. I found out it is a Peter Rubb nib. This is my way of thinking ; After the second world war people did not like Germany goods . The good german nibs all have only a stamp, no letters, so you did not know it was a german pen. Many of those Dutch pens, where I come from, are not really dutch pens. They write like a german pen of the 30's. It has that nice semi flex. I am happy that people do not know these stamps, so I have many degussa nib pens for a bargin...Most know the bock nib. But this Peter Rubb nib has this nice semi-flex 50's feel, but the pen is older.OK... you make nice fountain pen movies, nice stories and good writing stuff. Thanks. dave
I think I just got stuck buying one on eBay. Under 20 bucks and probably a good pen, but still fraud.
I love fountain pens but afraid to use them....too nice to use!! I have one fountain but 10 rollerballs.....ST Dupont Montblanc etc Can you do some videos on rollerball?
dang, what a dull knife. nice pens
Have you been to a Pelikan hub?
I don't think the nib is real gold plated. I have a Jinhao X750. It has an all silver colored nib that says 18KGP. I don't think they know what 18KGP means. English isn't there first language. Chinese is there first language. Jinhao still makes good pens.
M400 ? But it looks like cap and pen are mixed period before and after 1997...
I hope you find a cap that fits perfectly.👍 And then... If I lived near you, I'd sharpen all your knives.😁
Very very nice indeed! And I think a good price, too.
Look at marlenpens for carabinieri models
How wonderful!
Congratulations on acquiring such a treasure. Thanks for a fantastic video, as always. Hope you're doing well. God bless you.
@@steventrosiek2623 thank you, my friend! It was an unexpected gift from a nice fellow collector. God bless you!
I never try hero blue ink, but i did tried black hero ink and i personally liking more than Parker Quink. I personally not a big fan of opaque ink. i inked Hero black ink for my waterman and i flow smoothly. In the end all kid of personal reference. Thanks for your sharing.
Thank you very informative.. I own a 22 but the ink window is yellow? Could this be from a later model and used to replaces a broken original?
trench art pen so nice !
Love the Rotring fountain pen, the stilograph brings back memories of Technical Drawing in High School (you use them around a 90° angle with the paper), the ettuis were fantastic and also loved the 5.6 mm drawing pen at the end.
Not so cheap. He quotes $US 6.00 or 5.00 Euros, but in the US it sells for $35.00 to $40.00😒
257 USD!!! That’s crazy for a pen that works just as well as a plain BIC 😭.
@@cavan_goh yes. You are right but sometimes you pay for the brand. I don't like the color mustard yellow but it is a quality piece. Is it worth 257 USD? No way. 😉
@@ThePenCollectorBogdan I paid 230 USD for a Meisterstuck LeGrand gold coated ballpoint pen. Works great even when it’s been pre-owned.
@@cavan_goh wow! Nice buy!
Great story and good advice. Maybe the filling button has the type of the nib engraved. My MB 252 (1st version) has "M-" on it.
Very interesting! Thanks!
Thanks for this review! See you soon!
Very interesting! Thanks!
Love your reviews, hope you will have a chance someday to check out our cool vintage pens like Kawuska or Zenith as we pretty much don't have any quality brands now. Cheers from Poland! @edit I've checked and these are about 1-2 euro here, hadn't really got into them as I'm more into japanese and german brands
It would have been funny if you had your swinging balanced watch from your desk on your towel at the beach. Not practical away on vacation but funny.
@@jh500us yes. A good idea. Very funny! 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks Bogdan 😊 Mine has these specific characteristics: - “MONT”+logo+“BLANC” MARKING on the cap - “252”+”KF” MARKING on the filler cap - Colorless transparent ink window - No marking on the golden ring - feeder : only 2 vertical lines - nib: Mont+blanc+14C+Montblanc+585 - caseine cap
Very interesting model! Thanks!
Thank you for sharing the precious information 🙏🏻
