  What a great fountain..., May 14, 2009

By weosule2001

What a great fountain pen! An excellent hand fit for those who prefer shorter pens, very good build quality and a reassuringly expensive sounding 'click' when you put the cap on. Couple that with a wonderfully smooth Fine point nib and you've got an excellent fountain pen for an excellent price.

I must beg to differ with the previous reviewer regarding colour, if anything the Prera that I received is not as bright a green as that shown above. Mine is a slightly lighter shade, not as 'loud' as the product photo, and tends more towards a 'lime' or 'grass' green than neon; when I took it out of the package it didn't scream GREEN!

  I absolutely love this..., October 1, 2011

By par...

I absolutely love this pen. It far exceeded my expectations for a moderate priced fountain pen. It writes and draws with a fine line (approx. 03) and is steady in the hand. Its light weight makes it a non-stop writer, and the cartridge seems to have an endless supply of ink and hasn't forced me to make a change or try out a converter after days of heavy use.

I've been sketching with it as much as writing and can't say enough good things about the experience.

I liked this pen so much I bought a second, a rarity for me, but I suspect these pens will become a rage or a cult pen one day, and a second seemed like a must-have.

By auxetic

Let's start off by saying this fountain pen has a VERY FINE nib. If you're used to European Fine nibs like the likes of Kaweco or Lamy, make sure you are aware that this is JAPANESE fine. Think needlepoint 0.3 and you'll get a sense of the fineness. If you like the idea of a needlepoint fountain pen that has relatively no tooth, then this is your pen!

  My pen arrived today..., February 3, 2011

By thornhill.mary

My pen arrived today and I've already fallen totally in love! The nib of this pen is most definately finer than my Lamy extra-fine nib. It writes amazingly smooth for such a fine nib. I will be using Noodlers Ink in it as soon as I use the ink that is in the cartridge that came with the pen, but that's just because I am a Noodlers Ink junkie. I LOVE the way this pen looks, feels in my hand and writes. Thank you so much!!!!!

By blk...

If the Prera came in EF I'd probably use it exclusively! The only reason I switch to my Sailor sometimes is because it comes in EF.

  I use this pen almost..., November 26, 2009

By blk...

I use this pen almost exclusively now in both writing and sketching. Feels great in my hand and flows like a dream on paper.
As a bonus discovery I found that the ink cartridge that it came with is the first ink I've used that works pretty decently on Moleskine paper.

  THIS PEN IS FANTASTIC!!!..., May 6, 2008

By s.seungjoo.lee

THIS PEN IS FANTASTIC!!! A light body, not too short and not too long. What I love most about it is that the fine point nib is super fine point. It writes amazingly smoothly--however, the lime green color is really more of a neon, day-glo green if that's an issue to you.
