Leslie’s Top 5 Picks
✔ Kaweco Sport Iridescent (Medium Nib) – She loves the color and the way it writes, even though she typically prefers stub nibs over mediums.
✔ Conklin Enduro Deco Crest (Stub Nib) – Heavier than her usual picks, but the screw-on posting makes it perfectly balanced in hand.
✔ TWSBI Diamond 580 White & Rose Gold (Stub Nib) – One of many TWSBIs in her collection, but this one stands out as a go-to daily writer.
✔ Lamy Safari Purple & Black (Stub Nib) – The snap cap makes it super convenient for quick notes, and she keeps it inked with her favorite colors.
✔ Visconti Rembrandt (Broad Nib) – A new addition to her collection, featuring a magnetic cap and a broad nib for a smooth, wet writing experience.
Brianna’s Top 5 Picks
✔ Kaweco Sport & Kaweco AL Sport (Broad Nib) – Her first fountain pen (now well-loved and chewed up by the dog) and its sleek aluminum counterpart.
✔ Carolina Pen Company Custom (Stub Nib) – A glittery pen she wasn’t expecting to love, but it feels perfect in hand.
✔ TWSBI Eco (Broad Nib) – While she has several, this one is strictly for writing, unlike her others which she uses for drawing.
✔ Diplomat Aero (Broad Nib) – She calls it “the blimp” because of its shape, and she loves its solid metal construction.
✔ Aurora Ipsilon (Broad Nib) – A newer pen in her collection with a textured feel, making it a unique writing experience.
Dylan’s Top 5 Picks
✔ Leonardo Momento Zero (Medium Nib) – Features Jonathan Brooks resin, making it as much a piece of art as it is a writer’s tool.
✔ Sailor Pro Gear Imperial Black (Medium Nib) – Ordered straight from Japan, this 21K gold nib offers one of the best writing experiences out there.
✔ Franklin Christoph Model 46 (Medium Nib) – A workhorse pen, solidly built and smooth to write with.
✔ Lamy 2000 (Medium Nib) – A must-have for any collector. He’s considering picking up a second one with a fine nib because it’s just that good.
✔ Visconti Homo Sapiens Bronze Age (Medium Nib) – Made from lava, this pen is a legend. It required some nib tuning but is now one of his absolute favorites.
