- Hey Goodfellas,
Video #5. I'm explaining you the difference of features and peculiarities of different pen manufacturing countries. It's a head to head between German, Japanese and Italian Pens. Spoiler: There isn't one better than the other, there is only your perception of things and your personality that can decide which is better for yourself.

Which Manufacturing Country are you more incline too? Or do you love each one for its own peculiarities?
I have German and Japanes fountain pens. The Italian pen is on the way from your international giveaway, i hope. The purple Visconti. So far, my taste is depending from my mood. I loooove the Capless, but in the same time the Lamy pens are very practical. Great video!
Honestly closer to each for its own, although I own more USA made pens than any other.
Japanese = 100% reliable & very high quality
Italian = gorgeous looks but lacks in quality control
German Montblanc = used to have high quality but nowadays they're more focused on making money. Basically they're only cashing in on their old goodwill which will slowly get tarnished. 🙄😱
German Lamy, on the other hand, is still very good 👍🌺
@Luuka11 Italian pens are now much more better than before except visconti entry levels. I had so many Japanese pens and nothing had a problem. Ad you said Montblanc is focused on making money only. Recently got a 146 Legrand with a crack on the barrel and I had to return it. My Otto Hutt design 4 is a superb one but I still love to use Sailors for everyday writing.
IMO:
Japanese companies tends to have the best craftsmanship and they make the most reliable and functional pen.
German companies tends to have the best engineering and they make the most enjoyable mechanism of a pen.
Italian companies tends to have the best looking designs and they make some of the most eye catching pen.
The perfect pen for me could be an Italian designing the pen body, with a German filling mechanism, that is produce and refine by the Japanese
Absolutely yes 😂👍🏻
I couldn't agree more.
There's one thing that a pen has to do: writing.
Italian pen are a pleasure for eyes. If they only wold have the same quality control on the nib side as japanese or german one always have..
I have a Visconti Mirage. Stunning pen, but nib ink flow problems. (for 170 euros ...)
I have a Leonardo Momento Zero. Stunning pen, and ink flow problem. (same price of Visconti)
Nowdays Leonardo is starting to use (german) Jowo nibs, guess why? Not sure about my Leonardo pen. Maybe it has the previous nib
I have a cheap Aurora pen. Quite refined pen, ink problems. (40 euros for this pen)
Twsbi Diamond, just perfect nib. (70 euros)
Pilot prera, just perfect nib (40 euros)
Lamy safari, just perfect nib (20 euros)
Platinum Prefounte, perfect nid (10 euros)
I'm italian, and i feel ashamed.
My favorite pen is by the brand lalex, not sure if this brand still exists. Italian beauty and works great (it’s 40+ years old). We create things of beauty and can create pens that function. No need to be ashamed. We do many things well.
Thanks for sharing!
Japanese pens the best, nibs are unique, bodies are light, Nibs are on a fine side and precise. Italian Aurora looks interesting too, German metal pens look nice too
Thanks for sharing your Feedback and thank you so much for watching!
Thanks, Samuel, for the educational yet fun material. I had stupidly assumed that Mont Blanc was a French company🤦🏻♂️ I tend to like Italian pens because to me their nibs are always wet and smooth. Japanese M nibs are too thin - (probably something to do with most Japanese kanji characters each containing more than 10 strokes), yet B Nibs are too broad for me (Japanese use B nibs for addressing on the cards, making it too thick for notebook entries), even though I appreciate the craftsmanship executed in those nibs. Having said that, my favorite pen at the moment is German pen (Otto Hutts), love the feel in my hand, the weight, and the wet smooth nib (the size is just right!!). Lamy is overrated in my experience …😅
My pleasure Toru and thank you for your time and this exaustive response! 🙏🏼
I like the nonchalance of the italian pens and... in the same time I love the formal approach of the german ones 😎
👍🏼🙏🏼
I love the german engineering and precision, it is just not comparable.
💪🏼👍🏻
Great comparison/education. Keep up with the great work Sam. I love all of them, appreciate each of their own beauty and workmanship
Thank you very much for watching!
I love all three as I have collections of:
Germans - Montblanc Patron Of Art
Japanese - Namiki Emperor
Italian - Visconti Il Magnifico
Love it! You know how to appreciate fine things! 👍🏼🔥
Love your videos. I love all three but of course for different reasons. Question: my best handbags are French, silk scarves, etc etc where are the French fountain pens?
well, I have a Pilot Urushi, Aurora 88 and a Montblanc 146, I like them, I think they offers different writing experience. Nice video Samuel!
All stunning pieces. Totally agree on the experience. Thanks for watching.
My upper limit for a pen is 200 USD and I buy whatever is available from whichever brand for this price or less..
Thanks for sharing your Feedback!
Love Japanese and German Fountain pens witha bias towards Japanese pens due to my print lettering handwriting!
I personally would like to try pens from every place of the world. I have German, Japanese, Chinese, American and French pens but I still don't have opportunity to try Italian pens.
Thank you for the video.
Love that!
Start from a Leonardo one and you will be on the right path 😁
I know nothing about pens but this is so cool
Thank you ♥️
My goal is to own an over the top Montegrappa pen like the Chaos! RN the Elmo seems like a good starter
♥️
German and Italian. My go to is a Pelikan m800. For Italian-Visconti. Looking to add an Omas.
I'm partial to Japanese
You missed out a major country which has proven more consistent durable reliable and classy compared to all the hype and popularity. Better pay attention to France. I’m not French but they are subtle , Superior, sensible, affordable, better engineering, more durable without the marketing hype.
I love your passion. Just subscribed!
thank you so much!
Japanese and German, Italians don’t know anything about consistency 😂
Love japanese and germans too, but italian brands such as Montegrappa and Maiora are doing a good consistent job nowadays. 🙏🏼
@@SamuelNaldi well, they over charge and doesn’t put enough thoughts into their functions too xD
@@VincentDuxD thanks for sharing your feedback Vincent. Look at it once again… i think the pricing makes sense with the kind of materials and manufacturing one gets. That is the beautiful thing about Pens…. Each country brings its own peculiarities! ♥️
@@SamuelNaldi well, I was gonna troll some more but you’re still so nice, so, recommendations of Italian pens that write like a m805 and pilot falcon sef?
@@VincentDuxD no need to troll, we’re all here to learn and share opinions. It’s enriching. I own a Maiora Alpha Orogrigio, and it has been a terrific writer even after leaving it still for 2 weeks. Nino Marino quality controls all Pens by himself and since i have them at styleofzug.ch i’ve only had very positive feedbacks from customers. Another one i love for example is the Montegrappa Extra 1930 or the Extra Otto, both great writers even if they’re in a more expensive range. I also own a Montegrappa Zero with Gold Nib, and so far, never had one problem with it… i was pleasantly surprised by its performance.
I love this! Thank you for the comparisons. I am a mixed up kind of gal. However, my only gold nibs so far are all Japanese nibs. I just ordered my first German gold nib pen , I cant wait to compare myself.
Which german Gold Nib did you order?
@@SamuelNaldi I ordered a LAMY Dialogue. I found it preloved on my facebook group…. Its coming this week!
@@deniseplasse5126 great one!
You missed out on the Aurora Italian pens
1 video per day is admirable! 🎉 Probably a Japanese pen for me next.
Thanks Marko. Coming from you it means a lot! ♥️
@@SamuelNaldi a LOT of work so I can definitely relate and applaud u. 💯
@@SwissWatchGang yes bro, been really a challenge, but what a Challenge.
Great video Samuel!
Thanks Guys!
Hold up I've seen this combination before.
Where?
I'm a great lover of Italian art but also appreciate German and Japanese products. I'd like to have your views on Dupont fountain pens.
Check my Video where i compare Dupont and Montblanc.
@@SamuelNaldi thank you dear.
Love them all!💪🏼
Thanks Sam! Glad you liked these!
Thanks for this video❤
❤️
Japanese are the best .affordable and pretty functional.
They definitely are!
All of them!
Obvious! 🤷🏻♂️🤣
Hmm. Wish you had added in USA and French in this. I am pretty spread around the world.
German cars being reliable? ROFL. (Porsche being the only exception--they are the best drivers car at any price--but I guess if you're comparing them to Italian trash like Ferraris).
That Pilot with the interchangeble nib is awsome
♥️
Italian pens are the best to me! Love the red Montegrappa!
Great Donald! 🙏🏼
That’s helpful information
So glad it is and thank you so much for watching
I love the Italian pens! Montegrappa is my favorite !
They are great indeed!
Any opinion on pens from India and China ?
I don’t have an opinion for manufacturers from China and India. I think everyone deserves respect for their Work. I also think that not everything can be called Premium Writing Instrument.
Very opportune vid, since they are the most important producers in the qualitative sense. I think that despite the fact that the europeans shows the top models, Japan wins in value for money.
Interesting feedback. Thank you for sharing!
I have a Mont Blanc 149, JFK, faber Castel among the German pens. A Montegrappa Ferrari in red and Omas in celluloid from Italy. A S. T .DuPont in sterling silver from France. Nothing from Japan- just don’t like the looks.
German pens are master piece 🇩🇪
Would recommend presenters on UA-cam speak normally; not theatrically. Why the black gloves? Are the pens infectious?? Covid or other germs or viruses from pens??
The pens i show on the UA-cam Channel are part of my boutique styleofzug.ch . Wearing gloves makes sure the pens don't get dirty or scratched while i present them on UA-cam. That's it.
art- smart-cool.
