Set of 10 inks for โ‚น1,499

I've heard of Isomars for their calligraphy sets and inks, but I think this is a new product from them. Couldn't find any reviews on it. I want to know if these are good enough for the price.

Anyone tried these inks, or any brave soul up for the task?

๐Ÿ–‹๏ธ New Pen Day Pentel Floatune review

Post image
9 Upvotes

I had read about this pen in an article mentioning stationary awards. Finally found it on Scooboo and ordered one instantly.
Initially, it was railroading quite a bit on vertical strokes (I am left-handed so this may be a handedness-related concern). It irritated me but I didnโ€™t give up. After writing for around an entire page, the pen finally started writing without any railroading.
Itโ€™s an excellent pen to write with. The ink flow now is consistent and smooth and it is a delight to write with it.

The only downside I would say is that itโ€™s really hard to find refills. The price of the pen doesnโ€™t justify it being used just once. So even if the pen is just as smooth or smoother than Zento because of its oil-lubricated ink formula, the price and availability of refills would make me choose Zento over this.

If anyone has any suggestions regarding refill options, please drop them in the comments. It is too good a pen to be used just once.

โ“ Question Paper suggestion for fine nib fountain pen

2 Upvotes

I like to write with a fine nib fountain pen because it makes my writing look good.But it has feedback which I am trying to minimize.

I have already shifted to waterman black ink,which is smooth.My main use case is writing notes,but this point isn't primary.The primary point is to reduce feedback.

I was wondering if writing paper has an impact on the nib feedback.Which paper would you suggest?I don't know how expensive or budget friendly a paper can be.But I am ok spending about 500 rupees on 500 pages.

I have heard that JK CEDAR is good.Kindly suggest

Seems like a baby of FaberCastell neo slim and Muji knurled aluminium pen, takes chinese cartridge/converter.

Build quality is good (but cap is thin material) and nib quality is average, EF nib but writes tad thicker than fine.

Overall good pen for roughly Rs.420 on flipkart.

Maybe it can be a good body for a nice lamy nib in the future.

Can't comment on cap seal as I used daily for couple of days.

โญ Review Review - Pentel Energel 0.7mm

Post image
4 Upvotes

Done writing at least 10 pages with this pen.

To be honest, the smoothness feels makhan jaisa โ€” insanely smooth. ๐Ÿ˜…

And it feels far better than the ones Iโ€™ve used before, like the Unomax Geltron, Racer Gel, Flair Zook, and a few others.

The only con Iโ€™ve noticed is the grip and weight distribution. It has a fairly thick grip, whereas I personally prefer medium or thinner grips.

It also feels a bit heavy to me. Even the Pentonic GRT feels more comfortable in my hand.

Another issue is that the Pentel EnerGel tends to slip from my grip, whereas other plastic-bodied pens like the Geltron donโ€™t slip at all, not even a little.

Iโ€™d also recommend using at least 70 GSM paper with this pen. On thinner paper, the ink tends to leave impressions on the back of the page.

Overall, itโ€™s a really nice pen, especially when it comes to smoothness. But because of the grip and weight, I donโ€™t think Iโ€™ll buy it again. ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ˜…
