Really enjoyed your channel and learned alot from u. The beauty about FP reviews is that each reviewer brings a distictive beauty and perspectives of this beautiful obsession. So glad i found ur channel. Kudos to u friend, and yes I couldn't hurry enough to subscribe :)

It's almost that time of the year again. Looking forward to your top pens of 2016!

Chris have you done a review on the 149 fine nib, all so you have the 800 as number 1 how is this better then the M1000? God will I'll save and save to buy me a 800 one day, and the blue is my color, so the difference between to 800 and 805 is the silver?

Amazing review! I was happy to see two of my favorite pens on your first list as a beginner!

I am an artist and have always appreciated the beauty in functional objects; and the passion that people feel for them. The love, power, and passion comes through your voice and hands in this video. Good stuff. It is also a good, honest education for me as a pen novice.

Have you done a review on the Lamy 2000?

So many pens, so little time (and money), Don't forget to get into inks, too. peterjpuleo.blogspot.com

Great fun, David. Thanks for sharing. It's interesting to see how your and my ratings match and vary on the same pens. The luck of the draw (quality control of nibs) as well as personal preferences (hand size) enter in, but I find that I'm mostly in agreement. Keep up the fine work, Sir.

That's actually a Sailor Promenade. The Sailor 1911S has a slightly different shape. They use the same nib though.

Interested in knowing where you are a year later.

What happened to Visconti homosapians

I really appreciate your review of fountain pens. That saves me a lot of work. I have played with calligraphy and today penmanship is a dying art. Now we have to get you into mechanical watches. Look up automatics and tourbillon watches. There is a great beauty in their designs. It is the simple things in life that bring us the greatest pleasure.

I really enjoyed watching the progression of your choices! It's most helpful to observe how one's taste changes with experience. Wonderful, informative video and very entertaining! Agree with many of your choices as well .

Hey have you ever tried any visconti pens? Especially ones which have their palladium nibs.

Nice collection! Agree with you about the Japanese and German pens. Great pens. You might want to try some of the pens made in Italy--e.g., Omas, Aurora.

June: TWSBI Diamond 580 is nr. 4
June: Pilot Custom Heritage 92 is nr. 6
September: Pilot Custom Heritage 92 is nr. 6
September: TWSBI Diamond 580 is out of the top 10
?????????????
Nice video btw!

I really hate the Parker Urban. Of the pens I've used, it takes the cake for worst.
