Love your Esties! I am finally going to get one for Xmas, thank you for sharing all of yours and the different nibs. I have been watching a bunch of videos and am learning a lot. I loved seeing them in action with your writing. You have the perfect rainbow! ❤🌈
0:55...You got that Right !! Everything in Canada , is Expensive..LOL 🤑 💲💰 I hope you got a deal on that Amazon $400cad Esterbook Estie, fountain pen. 6:28 ...That's cool...I like that ! Easy to switch out inks and use the same body, as long as you have a converter or cartridge added to it, with selected ink ? 7:07...Amazing...I am such a Newbie...I haven't even come to the area on my Fountain pen journey, where I am considering the options of Nib Grinds..LOL. I am still playing with purchasing and experimenting with , Converters, Ink options (Swatch) and manufactured modern pens..LOL I am far away from Custom Pens, Special Grinds , Types of Nib options. 11:18..that one, seems to have alot of ink flow coming out, compared to the previous two ? 13:16....I like that modification from a common nib into an italic nib. I will have to look around and find someone who does these modifications...I doesn't look like your using a regular gel pen to me. This is one reason I got back into fountain pens...it was because I love the italic look of lettering. 16:14... This is new, to me... *An Architect Nib* ... *Just posted a new video to share with you,* _friend KarynaLoves"_ ua-cam.com/video/zlW-uMlNaC4/v-deo.html
1. I didn't get the Estie from Amazon - it was purchased second-hand through Instagram. 2. Yes - easy to switch nibs between pens. 3. If you're ever at a pen show, many nibmeisters have different grinds for you to try. Best way to try them! 4. If it's the medium nib, then it will probably be a bit wetter. 5. Yes, I love my cursive smooth italic, both for the line variation and how the pen feels on the paper. 6. Oh yes the architect is lovely!
I don't own an Estie but they are sure on my WISH LIST. Your collection is awesome! Congrats: I do hope to get one for myself, any color would suit me just fine! I would love any nib I'm sure but I would like to get the FCSI first if I have the option and would love that adaptor so I can purchase the different vintage nibs. Thanks for sharing!
Oh wow, I just opened YT and see this beauty!! 🎉 Still waiting for my Nouveau Bleu (currently lost in transit…) and I have to talk myself out of this one 😂 The nib comparison is really helpful, thank you!
The Estie FPs have become some of my favorite pens. I own about 4-5 of them. I agree with you when you said that they're very comfortable to write with. I want to try their journaler and cursive italic nibs next. I only own their fine, medium and broad nibs.

My first Estie was the Tortoise. My Raven and Cola are currently inked. I just ordered my 6th, the Winter White. They are beautiful and write so well (great for long writing). I keep them in a separate case. Congratulations on your beautiful collection!
I tried so hard to get that exact pen from Sarah! She told me, sadly, it was already sold. Funny it was you! I’m so happy I can at least look at it through your UA-cam channel. 😅 I got a couple other goodies from her, though. Ah well, this is life.
I love Estie's. I've been waiting for my white Estie since last week (I had when shops create shipping labels so far in advance. I get excited and no delivery, lol)
I Have only the Nouveau Bleu at the moment, but have two nibs so i can swap and change. The Medium and the Stub. My Next will be the Scarlet in a Fine. Love your Vids Karyna. I Have not seen te Blue Moon for sale over here ???
There are a couple that seem to be limited, like the Blue Moon and Lilac. I got the Blue Moon second hand and I have not seen it re-released since it first came out.
I have the same vintage 9128 nib as yours, but mine so far isn't as flex as what yours seems to be. The line variation I can get isn't as good. Is yours a new old stock or a used one? My nib is NOS.
I have my local nib grinder, Jack Hernandez, who I send pens to. I have also had Kirk Speer of Pen Realm tune and smooth them for me at pen shows. But if you send them off to him he has a waitlist.
I felt so unbelievably fortunate when I found my Blue Moon Estie! You will absolutely love this long term. So happy for you!🎉
Thank you so much!! Blue Moon is so unique and I love the variations in the resins!
love the colour of the new Estie, and I love that you have all those different grinds to choose from.😀
Me too! The nib grinds just add to the experience!
I love the ability to use the vintage nibs. Your collection is beautiful!
I'm looking forward to exploring the vintage nibs more!!
I own 2 now, one in blueberry and one in punch. Both are gorgeous. Blue moon is lovely, I want one in lilac now. Congratulations 💙🩵💙
Those are gorgeous resins!

Thank you! I think I am at a good stage with my whole Esterbrook collection now!
Estie packaging is lovely. I do find the actual pens a bit on the large side.
They always do so well with their marketing!

what a lovely collection. thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
I love that new blue pen! I’ve fallen in love with my own estie:) I’m hoping to add a second one to my collection soon.
Estie's were pens I never thought I'd get and then I got one a year ago... and here I am with six!
I don't own an Estie but they are sure on my WISH LIST. Your collection is awesome! Congrats: I do hope to get one for myself, any color would suit me just fine! I would love any nib I'm sure but I would like to get the FCSI first if I have the option and would love that adaptor so I can purchase the different vintage nibs. Thanks for sharing!
I highly recommend the Estie - one of my favourite pens!
Beautiful Estie rainbow 😍
Thank you, Anita!
Oh wow, I just opened YT and see this beauty!! 🎉
Still waiting for my Nouveau Bleu (currently lost in transit…) and I have to talk myself out of this one 😂
The nib comparison is really helpful, thank you!
Nouveau Bleu is a good one and I am so sorry it is lost in transit! Hope you get it soon!
@@KarynaLovesToPlan thanks, it has a special grind so I hope for the best of course ☺️
🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
Congrats on the new one. Always a great day to ink up one you've just received.
Thanks Pam! This definitely rounds out the collection.
The Blue Moon is stunning! It reminds me of the Aquapetra Leonardo Furore (probably because I've been on the hunt for it lol)
Very similar but Aquapetra has purples and greens in the resin whereas Blue Moon is just variations of blue. Both are gorgeous!
The Estie FPs have become some of my favorite pens. I own about 4-5 of them. I agree with you when you said that they're very comfortable to write with. I want to try their journaler and cursive italic nibs next. I only own their fine, medium and broad nibs.
I highly recommend getting nibs ground to your specifications because it really elevates the whole experience! Thanks for watching and sharing!

@@KarynaLovesToPlan Thank you! Took a screen shot of your list

Yours sounds like a gorgeous collection!!
Such a beautiful collection!!
Thanks Bart!!
That is such a beautiful blue.
Yes it is - so many variations in the blue resin!
Gorgeous collection and the new addition is awesome. 😊
Thank you Dash! You have watched this grow from one to six in this past year!
I tried so hard to get that exact pen from Sarah! She told me, sadly, it was already sold. Funny it was you! I’m so happy I can at least look at it through your UA-cam channel. 😅 I got a couple other goodies from her, though. Ah well, this is life.
Blue Moon is a popular cololur - I had two other people tag me in her post! Glad you were able to get other things from her.
Well shoot! Now I have to add this to my ultimate wishlist. It will look perfect between my Aqua & Nouveau Blue Estie's! 🩵💙🖋️
Yes - a beautiful blue to fit between Aqua and Nouveau Bleu!
I love Estie's. I've been waiting for my white Estie since last week (I had when shops create shipping labels so far in advance. I get excited and no delivery, lol)
Haha I get that - I hate that, too! Congratulations on your new Estie and hope it gets to you soon!
beautiful colours! I have 6 Esties on my wish list but I have zero right now :) Maybe one day ...
I went from zero at the beginning of 2023 to 6. It can happen!
I Have only the Nouveau Bleu at the moment, but have two nibs so i can swap and change. The Medium and the Stub. My Next will be the Scarlet in a Fine. Love your Vids Karyna. I Have not seen te Blue Moon for sale over here ???
The Scarlet is also beautiful! Blue Moon came out last year before I became interested in Esties so I found this one second hand.
How often do these Estie shades go out of stock? I can never find the ones people post about.
There are a couple that seem to be limited, like the Blue Moon and Lilac. I got the Blue Moon second hand and I have not seen it re-released since it first came out.
I have the same vintage 9128 nib as yours, but mine so far isn't as flex as what yours seems to be. The line variation I can get isn't as good. Is yours a new old stock or a used one? My nib is NOS.
I'm not sure. The 9128 nib was given to me by a Secret Santa so I'm not sure if it was new or old. Sorry!
Where did this color come from? Ive been under a rock!! 🥰 GORGEOUS!!!!!
It came out this time last year, before I got into Esties!
I have 4 Esties. Two write great, two are very scratchy. 50% success. Where do you recommend I go to tune the nibs?
I have my local nib grinder, Jack Hernandez, who I send pens to. I have also had Kirk Speer of Pen Realm tune and smooth them for me at pen shows. But if you send them off to him he has a waitlist.
@@KarynaLovesToPlan thank you. I may consider going to the Portland Pen Show, could find someone loser. Leanne Likes may know since she’s in Seattle.
I am going to the PNW Pen Show!!! There will be a few nib grinders there so a great place to get nibs tuned!
I dont know if i should get extra fine or fine for my first estie😂
