Nice explanation of the differences between these three beautiful pens, but the best part for me was discovering the brilliant nib log form you are using. I found out that form is downloadable from Yoseka Stationerey, and I can then print it on my own choice of paper 🙂
This was the best Pelikan comparison video I have watched. I do not have a Pelikan yet but looking forward to owning one. I wanted to get an M800 but now I like the M1000 better :)
You are a joy to watch and listen to. Being “long in tooth” I’m late in returning to my love of fountain pens from my teenage years. I also appreciate beautiful design. My collection is very limited and was considering Pelikan, and I’m now convinced that Pelikan will be my next acquisition. If I might be so bold to ask, what pen is your every day carry and writer? Do you have a preference for your left or right hand? Finally - thank you!
Hi, David. Thank you so much for the kind words. My everyday carry consists of my Montegrappa Mia, Cross Bailey Light, Aurora 888, Lamy Vista and a Rotring rollerball. As for the Pelikans, there is a US based seller that has good prices on eBay. I don’t have a preference for hands. I am a natural righty but switch when my hand gets tired or if I need to switch angles when drawing.
