I enjoy writing with..., May 25, 2011
I enjoy writing with fountain pens and have many of them; so I got these for my
children. These pens are wonderful for children who don't like to write hard,
and also wonderful for teaching children they don't need to write hard. I got
one for my 3 year old hard-writer, and he wasn't ready for it, and bent the nib,
but as far as nibs go, this one handled more abuse than my other pens would
have. I gave him a new one at 6, and he LOVES it! He loves to chose the
different colors of ink too. I'd say this pen is perfect for a child one they
begin learning to write. If you have a child that presses a pen brutally hard,
wait until they begin writing and have the ability to realize that with this pen
they won't need to press so firmly. The rubber grip, with special areas for
proper grip placement, is extremely comfortable. if you want a fountain pen to
last, don't cap the lid on the back or it may stretch over time. I'm learning to
place the lid right in front of me so I don't lose it and cap the pen as soon as
I'm done writing. If you want to cap the end, just place it on lightly but
firmly enough that it doesn't fly off.

Love it, I am a fountain..., March 25, 2011
Love it, I am a fountain pen lover and this is the one I grab when my older hand
gets a little stiff and cramped up. This is a nice fat pen with a really
comfortable triangular rubberized grip and even clean ink flow. Wish it had a
pocket clip but you can't have everything. Great bright colors too...buy one
they are inexpensive and they work great

I use this pen everyday..., August 27, 2010
I use this pen everyday and it works wonderfully. I even bought one for my 14
year old son to use for school. I would recommend this to anyone that loves to
write with a fountain pen. Recommend buying extra replacement cartridges if you
do a lot of writing since you will go through a lot of ink. The long ink
cartridges work best.

Nice grip, for my adult..., December 9, 2009
Nice grip, for my adult hands, but the nib is very weak..bent back with minimal
pressure. I wouldn't recommend this for children or adults.

I have only one negative..., October 7, 2009
I have only one negative about this pen - the top cracks over time. It splits
from the inside out when you place it on the back of the pen (as you write, for
example).
It writes beautifully, but I've had to have 2 replaced due to the cracking top.
