JESUS CHRIST died for us on a cross for our sins. 3 days after his death he resurrected and was, is, and will be The LIVING GOD. Repent from your sins and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior in a prayer and also ask for the HOLY SPIRIT to come into you in that same prayer as well and have FAITH in JESUS CHRIST. You could come to Jesus Christ as you are, but once you accept Him, you have to become new, change, and be born again, and also turn away from your wicked ways. Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. God Bless You. The Bible is the true word of God. Please read the Bible and you will see Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Praise only be to GOD. Give your life to CHRIST. JESUS CHRIST IS COMING SOON FOR HIS CHURCH.

My TWSBI DIAMOND 580ALR arrived a couple of weeks ago and I'm loving it. I'm using Diamine's Ancient Copper. I didn't buy the pen because i was a fan of fountain pens. It was recommended to me by my doctor because im developing arthritis in my wrist, and I do a lot of writing. Unlike his usual advice i actually followed through lol. Went through a few hiccups with cheap nasty pens but then discovered your videos on the 580. Life is so much easier now.

I tend to get my pens in EF/F, but for the Vista I got B, and I finally see what all the fuss about shading is. 😊🖋 Thanks for scheduling this video to drop on Friday, to fill the void of the missing pencast 😅I hope you're all having a lovely time off.

You should follow the lead of the automotive manufactures who list their sales figures by make and models, not colors. and list the top selling pens also by make and models, all regardless of color or nib combinations. It's not a fair comparison to compare pens that only come in one or two colors with models that have over a dozen colors, etc. You get my point. Thanks, it was still an interesting little video and made me click.

I own a few Pilots and Sailors, as well as pens from several other major brands as well. And absolutely the Diplomat Magnum punches WAY above its price point. I currently own two, and though very light, they don't feel flimsy or cheap. And they write way better than they have any right to considering their price point.

Being into this hobby 4 months and not knowing where to start have been making purchases here and there and facing back order issues and aka ways that famous phrase “sold out” and running into a lot of sites that don’t have descriptions on the product. Then the Pen Heaven angels introduce Goulet Pens and has about just everything but I would like to see more stationery options for single sheets of paper for letter writing. As a former banker and now as a nurse want to shop on website as quick as possible since I don’t have much time as I work 6 days a week.

I love "Nitro" sheen in a pen of similar color but it's a "Divine Levine" V169 (sounds better than Asvine) LOVE Drew's top seller list, and will buy something again soon to support our FAVE pen friends. BUT, under $10 I would put the Jinhao 82 which has converter and is awesomely priced in a plethora of color combos. Next would be my lovely White Tiger Pilot Metro, and believe it or not I acquired a NEW Pilot e95 (authentic not fake) with gold nib for under $100!! AND, found a Visconti Eco-logic Rembrandt Gray (M), hope that's not mushy. It's on its way for my Bday 😄 I'm yet to spend over $100 on an FP during my current 2022/23 frenzy as I learn which pens have M/F nib -- in some that's a Fine but Pilot M in steel is perfect, the gold would have been better in Fine.

You assured me things would be okay, as it was covered if lost, but also that it was probably on its way. Being my first big pen purchase, you also assured me that the M nib was a great choice😎✌🏽😎 you were absolutely correct.. now own I the rollerball and pencil to match. I also had the nib ground to a CI by a famous nib grinder at a pen show late last year. It’s still such a great pen to write with, even more fun w the custom grind.

It's not easy to find pens with bold nib options. I followed your advice and ordered the Diplomat Magnum. Sorry to say, it is a huge disappointment. The grip section has ridges that make it very uncomfortable to hold, much less write with. The pen body is weirdly shaped with a narrow end. But since I post my pens, that shouldn't make a difference. Except when you post this pen, it become back heavy. As to the nib, I didn't notice any bounce. Even in a nib it makes noise when it writes like feedback. This purchase was a complete loss in my book. I'm glad I didn't spend much money on the pen. I still love Goulet Pens; just hate this pen.

I would like to hear more on nibs, which are the most important part of the fountain pen. As far as the best ink goes, I vote for Lamy by far. Design and looks goes to the Cross Peerless and Townsend Fountain Pens. They are very stylish, but i would opt for a better nib, or look for the Cross 14k solid gold nibs from the 80’s. So design=Cross, Ink=Lamy, but I’m still up in the air about the best nib. I like fine, but everyone has their own favorite.

Watching this video for the 5th time since the pen cast is not on this week. Need to get a hobby. Like collecting fountain pens? LOL.

Hi guys, hoping Goulet or anyone else can help me out. I am an occasional fountain pen user - just for signing documents really. I sign and witness client's documents and scan them to send to brokers and banks. So I want a good strong black. The trouble is my pens clog up after no use for a few days. What is the best ink for that purpose. Also, does the pen make a difference in this regard?

it would have been interesting to see which pen would have made the cut in each range had the criterion been sales numbers of each pen model regardless of their color.

Instead of the shark pen, I like the 51a. I was sad when I found out they weren't on goulet pens anymore.

I can’t even begin to agree with you on these choices, but your opinion is your opinion. I think everybody is going to have their favorite in all of those different categories. None of these are very good looking except the Amber and gold pen. I really put 50% into looks and style, and then of course the other 50% into workability and writing pleasure, which encompasses many many facets if writing. ✍️. Smoothness is one. I cant take any scratchiness. I personally like a fine nib. I cant stand to look at blotchy paper, or large ink soaked lines. The nib needs to be bendable, and of good metal so it lasts a very long time, like gold, but not too high solid gold, ir it will bathroom! Too soft. One of my favorite nibs was the older Cross 14k solid gold nibs from the 1980’s i believe it was. It had just the right bend-ability. And to show you how good they were, just look at how many are still on the market. It was backed up by some of the smartest pen people in the industry. More later :)

This selection isn't actually my opinion, these are the best sellers at our store, so it's more of the opinions of the community in this case. - Drew

You may not be able to answer this question, but I am curious. What was the fastest pen to sell out of the specialty/one-off pens you guys have done? Days, hours, minutes, seconds maybe? I would be curious to know how fast, and what the pen was

I thought the Namiki Yukari Royale had a metal (brass?) body?(think you said it was ebonite: to be honest, prefer lighter bodied pens so if it’s ebonite that suits me!:)
@namniag
@namniag Год назад
Lacquered ebonite was the traditional material Namiki used, which is still used today in their Emporer and Aya pens, but you are correct that the Yukari Royale is a brass pen with urushi lacquer.

Me too. I absolutely love the art on several of the Yukari Royale pens but except for my Al-Star metal body pens feel too heavy for my liking. That keeps me from drooling enough to reach into my savings, lol.
