I have recently purchased a vintage 1972 Pilot Elite w/18K nib from Japan. I usually disassemble and clean all my vintage pens thoroughly and this pen was no exception. Initially the pen did not write good, very stingy on ink flow. Finally discovering how to disassemble it, I took it apart and found there is fiber sponge material that wicks ink from the feed and this was totally disintegrated. The pen was essentially useless with no way of controlling the ink flow........Thinking for a bit I remembered that the current $3 Pilot Varsity also uses this type of ink feed mechanism.....could it be that the fiber piece in the Varsity could be repurposed in the 1972 Pilot? Yes Japanese engineering again! The Diameter of the fiber was perfect and only needed to be trimmed and tapered a bit to fit under the Elite gold nib. It is now an amazing pen that never leaks and writes every time just like my (refillable) Varsity. Thanks for the video, I hope my info helps others that have an old Elite in the drawer. I always appreciate your engineering attention.

@KnightJRL 5 месяцев назад

See, THIS is what RU-vid comments sections should be. Great feedback and sharing of information. So much negativity and complaining these days. Thank you for posting this! As a fellow vintage Elite owner ('74, here!), I am now armed with additional knowledge should I ever find myself experiencing ink flow problems.

@widekeepo9416 3 месяца назад

Your comment is a godsend! I have a vintage pilot pen and mistook the fiber as dried ink and scraped it out 🫠. Will try out your technique soon

@Mafia2193 2 месяца назад

This is great! When i disassembled my vintage elite a couple months ago, i had the exact same thought. i used a replacement fiber tip for marker pens, sliced and shaved to fit with a scalpel. Works perfectly!

@evanbasnaw 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib was the Lamy 2k F. Great writer. I did get a 1970s vintage Elite last year for $35 at a pen show because it had a mismatched body. I love the old 18k nib.

@ibpopp 5 месяцев назад

Excellent show. I really like the way your design & engineering background helps frame your comments. Good on 'ya, mate. Cheers from The Bunyips.

@gaganmohan 5 месяцев назад

I was researching for my first gold nib pen, it will be great to have this ! Watched lot of your videos for information on pens , but subscribed recently.

@000Devin 5 месяцев назад

Love the videos! I've only been using fountain pens for about 6 months, your content has been a great resource in my journey.

@tgfflynn 5 месяцев назад

I discovered your channel a few month ago and have since watched all and have gone viewing at past postings. I like your approach and vibe of the individual episodes. I have really liked your tips, tricks and did you knows; like the tissue wetness test. Well Done.

@xWyLDe- 5 месяцев назад

Always enjoy your reviews. You are always very thorough and detailed and I like that you are completely honest on your thoughts.

@taiko7225 5 месяцев назад

Another great review as always - I love the visual from the tissue blotter test! I'll be using that ;)

@alohm 5 месяцев назад

I always love the old versus new to see what has changed, and you can see how they stand the test of time... Cheers, great work as always.

@ChadHerring 5 месяцев назад

This is great!! Thanks for this video. My first gold nib was a waterman opera that I got just out of college some 25 years ago

@zazaincalifornia 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for that informative video! I took a break from RU-vid but I wanted to mention how your handwriting improved, it’s beautiful and fluid 👌👌

@thedreadednyondo 5 месяцев назад

Very new to all this and fell into fountain pens only a couple months ago. Learning a lot from your vids! Love the look of the e95s.

@TheNeebs 5 месяцев назад

I'm a little over a month on my fountain pen journey and this Pilot E95s quickly made its way on my list. Your channel is my favorite due to your engineering approach as it fits with my interests in many things and now fountain pens too. I've been cruising around eBay in hopes of finding the same vintage one you have but am sure I will buy the new one soon. That is unless I'm the lucky winner. Thank you for all the reviews and content you produce.

@johndelancey 5 месяцев назад

Just about 2 months into my fountain pen journey as a wannabe artist. :D Love the videos. You've helped narrow the field considerably. I've stuck to the lower cost/easier to leave on the sidewalk when urban sketching types of pens so far, but very excited to eventually graduate to the finer stuff, and the Pilots are at the top of the list of contenders. Great stuff!

@ExpertAquariumGirl Месяц назад

Your voice is super soothing. I just figured out why. “Ahhh Peter? I’m going to have to ask you to come in on Saturday. I’m going to go ahead and have to ask you to come in on Sunday, too. Thanks!” 😂

@Doodlebud Месяц назад

We have sort of a problem here.... yeah, you apparently didn't put one of the new coversheets on your TPS reports. Yeeeeahhh.... If you could just go ahead and make sure you do that from now on that would great....

@ExpertAquariumGirl Месяц назад

@@Doodlebud omg! This made my day!!!! Those tps reports!!! Imagine three bosses telling you about how you messed those up! 😆 I can’t be the first person to say you sound like Lumbergh, right? I hope I am but I just can’t be. 🤣🤣🤣 You’re the best! I love that movie so much and watch it at least twice a year since it came out. 🙂 Also, your fountain pen stuff is the bees knees, too. ❤️

@LisaRSArt 5 месяцев назад

I have been looking for a vintage pen to buy on eBay and this one showed up. Thank you for the helpful review. 😊❤👏

My first FP and gold nib was a Pilot Vanishing Point. Thanks for your informative videos and practical insights.

@NEMTY48 5 месяцев назад

First gold nib was in my MB 149 purchased in the spring of 1978 for 100.00 .

@jpanthony 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for the video! Always look forward to see your latest take on things.

@carsonpettefer8585 5 месяцев назад

Such a satisfying pen! From the way it writes, to capping and uncapping, to the feel in the hand. Great comparison doodlebud!

@davidottman9501 5 месяцев назад

Very cool pen(s)! Not sure why I've been reluctant to grab one of these, there's a lot to like. Thanks for posting!

@noahsh8552 5 месяцев назад

Love the engineering knowledge and education you put into your videos! My first (and to this date only) gold nib was actually one of those NOS 90’s cables you made a video about a while back! The seller had some more in stock later and I got one and love it. It does seem to dry out a bit though.

@andreamassari3849 5 месяцев назад

I appreciate all of your knowledge and observations that you share with us. Those are gorgeous pens.

@MarshaLove0723 5 месяцев назад

For the Elite/95s, I refill cartridges. The CON-40 doesn't bother me that much (I syringe-fill them) in most Pilot pens, but I can't see the ink level in the Elite. I can see the ink when I use a cartridge in that pen. My first gold nib pen was a LAMY Dialog 3. I originally bought it with a F nib, but bought an EF nib about a year later and swapped it out. Sometimes I put the Gold F on a Safari, depending on the ink. 😏

@haroldmarenger3435 5 месяцев назад

Another great video. Thanks for the comparison. I’ve been keeping an eye out for a similar vintage Pilot Elite as yours in the video. I have the newer version you tested in the video, and it works great, with no wiggle in the posted cap. My first gold nib pen that I actually used is/was a Lamy P48 (I still have the pen and the original packaging, shaped kind like a bullet). Thanks again.

@sruckel 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib was a gift of a Parker Duofold in 1987. I still use it regularly. I really enjoy your channel. Your engineering background adds something no other channel does. Well done.

@thadtheman3751 4 месяца назад

Was that the new or old Duofold. I love the design of the nib on the new with the arrow.

@iluvyoumetal 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib came on a Sailor Pro Gear Slim I purchased used from the Pen Swap subreddit. It was a broad nib, and although I didn't appreciate it's line weight at the time, I've come to really enjoy it with drier inks. Thanks for the videos, Doodlebud!

@edgars.rainesjr.3184 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the wonderful evaluation of an excellent fountain pen. My first gold nib pen was a Parker 75 with a Broad Italic nib, which I still use for Calligraphy projects. I really enjoy your videos.

@christineb.1 5 месяцев назад

Great comparison and tip on how to adjust the nib. I love the look of the vintage Elite.

@mo_roos 5 месяцев назад

Your reviews are always so thorough and helpful! I have yet to acquire a gold nib, but the e95s/elite is on the short list (along with the Sailor PGS).

@ruthrobertson9171 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video. The tips and tricks seemed very useful. Filling up ink in a pen can be more than a little messy when you first get started. Also the trick about how to tell which pen is wetter was very useful.

@samyeh7995 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for reviewing the e95s. I especially like that you measure the weight and the dimensions. Those data are even more important today when it's not as easy to find stationers to try the pens in person!

@charlesbrough6185 5 месяцев назад

Thanks DB! Learn something new every day! Date code was new to me. I usually refill empty cartridges in my Pilot short-long pocket pens because I like to choose my ink, the cartridges are sturdy, and have decent capacity. I have found them a pleasure to use

@johntoledo4438 5 месяцев назад

It's so nice how it goes from a pocket pen to a full-length pen and looks good while doing it. My first gold nib was a Pilot 74 sm. It's very nice.

@michaelkluge2303 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for doing the side by side comparison. I really appreciate how thorough your reviews always are.

@zeus52452 5 месяцев назад

Another nice review DB. My first gold nib was an E95s in Burgandy/Ivory Fine nib. I liked this style of pocket pen so much I've since acquired 3 vintage Sailors, 2 vintage Platinums, and a vintage Pilot Elite. My most recent acquisition - a vintage 1976 Pilot Myu 701!

@kymmerriman7888 5 месяцев назад

A pro gear slim was my first gold nib. Would love to try the Elite. Thanks for your very informative reviews that are so helpful with your background. I learn a lot.

@ScatteredGeek 2 месяца назад

I’ve been using fountain pens so long I’m not positive of my first gold nib. I believe it was my Namiki Faceted Vanishing Point in burgundy with a medium nib.

@CarbonHydrates-si8mg 5 месяцев назад

I was waiting for this comparison to pop up somewhere on the internet. Great review!

@skylachamard7444 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for the video. I enjoyed learning how to test for wetness. I've only been collecting using fountain pens since last summer. So i'm considering getting an e ninety five s for my first gold nib. I'm so grateful for the gentlemen who gave me my first couple of fountain pens. I've always hated writing and therefore keeping track of events and journaling. Using the fountain pen. I have gotten so much better.

@NauzerMistry 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for this video. My first gold nib pen was a Parker 45. Have a great week ahead!

@AlexKovalenkoArt 5 месяцев назад

I like your tissue paper test, it’s simple and visual. My first gold nib was Pilot Vanishing Point and I still love it.

@faniro4792 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Doodlebud for the excellent video. I own a modern Elite and I enjoy it a lot. My last fountain pen arrived yesterday: Leonardo Momento Zero Grande 2.0 Galattica Universe, what a nice pen indeed! Keep up the excellent work 🙂

@Soul_Watcher 4 месяца назад

I absolutely love the vintage pilot design and look. I want to get my hands on one of these some day! If memory serves, my first gold nibbed pen was my Platinum President. I purchased it in ultra extra extra fine.

@Killerobot212 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib was a Pilot Heritage 91 and is awesome. I love how stylish is it

@Tarragon_Oregano 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the comparison! I've been shopping around for my first gold nib pen. After seeing this I think I'll give vintage pens a closer look:)

@mehmeteg 5 месяцев назад

Doodlebud rocks! You’re the reason why I bought a Lamy 2000, and why my next grail pen is this vintage Pilot Elite. Thanks much! (I heard a little bit too many “a little bit”s in this video 😂)

@Shamufrootyboots 5 месяцев назад

I watched your original video on the vintage elite and was so taken by its styling and your review I found my own one. So a vintage elite is my first gold nibbed pen. I use it to draw with, and it’s wonderful

@Infamus21626 5 месяцев назад

Only a few months into using fountain pens and the Elite is the pen I would like as my first gold nib. Thank you for all the pen and ink videos you make.

@m7550s 5 месяцев назад

Looks awesome and has that great Pilot quality and aesthetic. I was surprised for my birthday with my first gold nib, a Pilot Custom 823. Love it in every way.

@matthewscott3689 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib pen was the Lamy 2000 in extra fine. Thank's for the review, i've always wanted to see how the modern and vintage elites compare! I thought they would have been virtually identical, but glad to know there are subtle differences that make them unique. Keep up the great work

@DMiG1337 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib pen was the Pilot Vanishing Point Decimo in medium. Picked it up this year during my first pen show, an intimidating but enjoyable experience. Thank you for the amazing content you share! I have learned so much from your channel.

@Paul.Douglas 2 месяца назад

Just got my Elite a couple days ago. It is my 1st gold nib, and the best writer. So smooth, great flow, no skipping.

@davisperry597 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib was the Lamy 2000. Bought it on vacation to NYC not realizing how rare a Lamy store was in the US at the time. Will always love that pen.

@user-ur8vk6wy7m 5 месяцев назад

Returned to fountain pens after 40 yr hiatus. Your site has been a great resource for getting back into using them. Really enjoyed the comparison. Still looking to for a future gold nib. Either a new or an 18K vintage Elite is definitely a consideration after your review. Really like the vintage design. Totally agree that they should bring back some design! Write on!

@odinson364 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the opportunity. My first gold nib pen was a Lamy 2000 medium. Since then, I have been considering getting it ground to an architect...

@BTMcSweeney 5 месяцев назад

Sailor and Platinum also made long-short pocket pens like this back in the 70s. They aren't as popular as the Elite and can be found remarkably cheap for gold nibs. I have a Platinum with a flex nib and it's a great writer.

@doc8125 5 месяцев назад

IIRC Platinum was the original one actually then the other companies followed

@alexmood6407 5 месяцев назад

Sailor made the first long/short format pen, soon followed by Platinum. I have about 10 of these and they are lovely

@ngtianbeng 5 месяцев назад

Unboxing my Montblanc Meisterstück 149 was a defining moment. The weight, the craftsmanship, and the gold nib made me feel like I was holding a piece of writing history in my hands. Cheers mate!

@moonlover1313 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib was actually my first pen! A vintage Cross Townsend that I got from an antique store for really cheap as it didn't really work. I learned how to take care of fountain pens along with how to use them thanks to that pen, and thankfully wasn't scared away by everything I had to learn. Haven't gotten any other gold nibs since then, but one day maybe another one will be on the way!

@milcomilco2893 5 месяцев назад

My first solid gold 14K nib was in a Kaweco V.71 fountain pen my parents offered to me as a gift. Very interesting and educational video on these Pilot fountain pens. It looks like the vintage versions win quite often.Thank you!

@195516Z 5 месяцев назад

LAMY 2000 was my first gold nib. I was skeptical at first but just writing with it changed my perspective. For what it's worth, you have a clear and pleasant voice for your reviews. Thanks.

@taishoku14 5 месяцев назад

My daughter works at Muji. I'm looking forward to a real fountain pen to use on the paper she sent me. It's time to retire my Zebra Fuente. You've given me some good ideas. Love your down-to-earth style!

@gaelenmckee6400 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for another great video, Doodlebud! I've been using fps for a couple years but I don't have a gold nibbed pen yet. I've honestly been considering an E95s for the first. Seems like a great, reliable fountain pen.

@BuddahMan11 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib pen was a Pilot Custom 74, though I got a Vanishing Point at the same pen show. I've always loved the idea of the e95s, but haven't been able to convince myself to buy one yet. Thanks for the comparison, a lot more had changed than I expected!

@Joe2theFACE 5 месяцев назад

That vintage does look amazing! My first gold nib was the vanishing point and I still love it!!

@l5s5p7 5 месяцев назад

Love pocket pens. This e95s has been in my list for some time. Classic!!!

@estherodri 5 месяцев назад

I’ve been eyeing the vintage pilots for a long time. Thanks for your reviews.

@BlinkiesNoGood 5 месяцев назад

I recently inherited my mom's vintage Parker 75 with a beautiful silver "cisele" design very similar to that vintage Pilot. Such a beautiful and timeless look. I also love that even though the pen is over 50 years old it takes the exact same coverter and cartridges as modern Parkers.

@joshuatardiff1531 5 месяцев назад

I've been tempted to get one of these for ages, the inlaid nib looks so slick

@ThomasGarnett-oo8xi 5 месяцев назад

I am new to the fountain pen hobby and am still looking for my first gold nib pen. Many have suggested pilot custom 823 or the lamy 2000. I watch all your videos on pen, paper and ink and I appreciate your knowledge of manufacturing. This sounds like it would be a good pen to start with. Thanks for your videos.

@bencole3741 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib was a Lamy 2000 EF - a really precise sweet spot that’s lovely to write with (not so great if you tend to roll a nib when writing, but amazing if you don’t!). Thank you so much for the great content - as always!

@veirsg 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib was a Pilot Custom 823. Great, smooth writer and I love that it holds so much ink.

@zxtiz 5 месяцев назад

That's a lovely looking pen. I am looking at getting my first gold nib pen and this might be one I go for

@ahalfkorean 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib pen was the Lamy 2k. The vintage Elite has more character, but the modern version is no slouch! Thanks to you and 365days Stationery for the chance to win!

This was my first gold nib and my wife’s. I bought us both vintage versions to match yours after watching you videos discussing it.

@jerryratajesak5526 5 месяцев назад

Another great video as always! My first gold nib was a Platinum 3776 that I picked up a pen show. I'm not sure if you have done a video on attending a pen show or maybe leather goods for pens, or how to sell/purchased pens. Just a thought. Keep up the great work!

@JonTheJotter 5 месяцев назад

Was inspired by your hunt for vintage pens and restoring them! My first gold nib was a vintage Schaeffer Targa Imperial I found for a good deal on eBay. It was definitely “used” but I fixed it up, cleaned it, and now it’s inked and writes real juicy. 😂

@joem.383 5 месяцев назад

My wife and I both have the newer version like yours in this video. They both are medium nibs and write wonderfully well…a bit soft but smooth as butter! I have the black and hers is the burgundy color. Fantastic writers for sure. Lots of bang for the buck. We especially like the friction fit of the cap. A distinctive closure when replacing the cap when done as well as when posting during writing. I would highly recommend this pen to both beginners as well as experienced writers. Nice job on your videos! I’m a subscriber. Joe M. Kansas City, USA.

@PeanutButter-rp8kg 5 месяцев назад

My first gold nib pen is my Sailor 1911S in MF. I have started to write since the 9th of January this year and started with my Pilot Kakuno. After finishing 2 journals, I moved to the Sailor 1911S. But I can seem to be comfortable enough to carry it with me to work so in the office I just use a normal rollerball. Great video btw. An in depth comparison is always nice. Very informative for newbies like me.

@kenchoate184 5 месяцев назад

Really enjoy the channel. No good nib pen.... yet. Have considered finding a pen show this year in search of the vintage elite.

My first and only gold nip until now is the Lamy 2000. After your videos I had to get that pen and I love it as a daily for work notes.

@williamcatalano1762 5 месяцев назад

Never even thought of the Kleenex tip Doodlebud. Thanks for that! Love my E95s.

@brethilebontree6672 4 месяца назад

My first gold nib was my late father's vintage Aurora Hastil in medium, it's super smooth. The first one I bought myself is my Sailor PGS Manyo Willow in MF. I agree with you that the vintage one has a lovely look that I wish the new version would come in as well!

@user-hz6uc6pi8p 5 месяцев назад

Loving the comparison! My first ever gold nib was a Pilot Custom 74, but sadly it had some flow issues. When it worked though, the nib was amazing.

@mikustar263 5 месяцев назад

My first pen with a gold nib was the Montblanc 220. I really like the Makrolon feel of its body& cap, it's very similar to the Lamy 2000 but much thinner. I just wish it didn't skip as much, have to find a way to fix that. Love your channel and your voice btw, cheers!
