Platinum Preppy Vulpen 03 Fijn Zwart

Chegou em perfeito estado. Tive que pesquisar para saber como usar, pois vem com o tubo de tinta solto. Não veio instruções. Tirando isso tudo certo. Comprei para meu filho, ele ainda está se acostumando com a caneta, mas gostou bastante.

The pen arrived yesterday, the usual fast Amazon delivery, in a cardboard envelope and the pen itself was in a loose plastic wrap.Unscrewing the pen you'll find the ink cartridge, hold the nib end upright and push the cartridge in until the little ballbearing clicks, reassemble the pen and hold vertical with the nib facing down...hold it in this position for a couple of minutes and then the ink has time to run into the nib.I am no expert in the field of fountain pens and I only own one other that was around £18, which I have been using for about a year. My older pen has a medium nib and writes beautifully.I saw a few reviews of this Platinum pen and decided to try it with the fine nib, as I said the ink does flow after a little preparation, it's plastic body means it is much lighter than a metal bodied pen...it is really made for kids after all!I wanted to try a fine nib but didn't want to spend a lot of money...I've used this for a day now and can honestly say it's a lovely pen, it's comfortable to hold, the ink flows with no problems and I've had no issues using on a variety of paper mediums.Four decades of Biro use and then texting certainly had a detrimental effect on my handwriting, so to start improving this I decided on going back to fountain pens. The beauty of fountain pens and cursive writing means you have to actually think about each letter in the word...it's very therapeutic indeed!I've ordered two more ink cartridges as I'll be using this pen for workTo summarise....cheap, easy to set up, lovely to write with and I thoroughly recommend this pen.

Cheap, writes smooth, and it’s customizable. I suggest avoiding pigment based or iron gall inks simply because it’s hard to fully disassemble this pen for cleaning without causing it to get out of whack. I successfully removed the feed from one with the nib attached but when reassembled it just didn’t write the same as new. Just flush it or use an ultrasonic cleaner and it should be fine though.

The pen is very light.It writes smoothly. The feedback is excellent.The cartridge supplied with the pen lasted for a month(school notes).The platinum peppy cartridges are costly.I tried Parker cartridge.There is compatibility issue still manageable.The pen is designed to support ink directly filled to the pen.(eye drops).Very much satisfied with the pen.If you like collecting fountain pens.. and u think these pens can alter your mood .. go ahead and buy.I have a collection of various fountain pens and they each has unique character and I use them according to my mood.It helps.

Ho sempre scritto con la stilografica ma da poco mi sono riavvicinato a questo "mondo". Acquistata più per curiosità che per necessità, devo dire che stupisce. Ottimo design, soluzioni costruttive sicuramente superiori a quello che il porezzo possa far intendere e ottimo il pennino...scrive davvero bene. Peccato non averne una!
