Everyday workhorse

A great everyday pen. The body has a nice shimmer and writes as well as a pen 3 times the price.

Inconsistent Flow

Purchase went very smooth. The pen itself has a nice weight to it and a good general feel. My issue comes in a very inconsistent ink flow - I am using the convertor that came with the pen, loaded with Diamine Sherwood Green ink. The first few pages wrote smoothly and actually much better than I expected given the price point. After about 4-5 pages, the pen began to have intermittent flow issues, and completely stop writing. I tried multiple types of paper and angles to improve flow, but it continues to have issues. At best I get 2-3 sentences before the flow stops in either the middle of a word, or at the start.

Mixed experience but worth a try for the price

The weight and metal body give this inexpensive pen a sense of importance and sturdiness. The "medium" nib writes very broad for me, with several different inks but especially with lubricated inks - I would stick with others. I bought two, Shimmering Sands colour - still going strong - and silver, which fell apart in a strange way with the grip/section separating from the pen. Tried gluing them back together - after all it's a $10 pen so it was worth a shot - but couldn't get it back in working order.

Quickly Shipped

Pen Goulet is a fantastic company and I want to purchase a lot more from them in the fountain pens and ink department. My pen was shipped very quickly - it arrived securely and neatly packaged, with a complimentary sticker, which was also adorable. The pen was exactly as described and as expected. Pricing was also very reasonable. Especially when shipping was basic, I didn't pay for expedited, but I received the package in about a week. So overall, I was very impressed with my first purchase and as I said, will definitely purchase more pens and ink as well. Did I mention their selection!?

Great pen for the price

As my first medium nib, I was a huge fan of the performance and witness for the price point! The design is pretty simple and understated, which I like. The only qualm I have is that the cap can rotate a little too freely when closed, but besides that everything was perfect!

FAQs about Fountain Pens

How do I fill a fountain pen with ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It depends on the pen's filling mechanism, which you can find in the Technical Specs section above. 

Here's a quick definition of the most common filling mechanisms:

  • Cartridge - A small, disposable, sealed plastic reservoir that holds fountain pen ink. These come pre-filled with ink, and typically you just push to insert them into place and you'll be ready to write! Check out our quick guide here.
  • Converter - A detachable and refillable ink reservoir that allows you to use bottled ink in a cartridge-accepting pen. Typically you will install the converter into the grip section, dip the nib/feed into the ink, and twist or pull the converter knob to draw ink into the converter. Here's a video for how to fill a cartridge/converter pen using a LAMY pen as an example.
  • Eyedropper - A pen that utilizes the entire barrel as a reservoir for ink. Ink is directly filled into the barrel, allowing for a high ink capacity. Here's a video on how to do it!
  • Piston - A type of filling system that uses a retracting plunger inside a sealed tube to draw ink into a pen. They are typically either twist or push-operated. These pens cannot accept cartridges or a converter, and only fill from bottled ink.
  • Vacuum - A push-style piston that uses pressure to fill the large pen body with ink. They seal the ink chamber when closed, making it ideal for flying without risk of leaking. Check out our video on how to use a vac filler here.

Check out more info on these filling mechanisms including a video on how to fill each one on our blog.

How do I clean a fountain pen? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It depends on the filling mechanism, but it mostly comes down to flushing it out with water, and sometimes a little bit of Pen Flush if the ink is really stuck. 

It's a bit easier to show than to tell, so we've put together a few quick videos showing you the process:

How often do I need to clean my fountain pen? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

We recommend a good cleaning every 2 weeks, and any time you change ink colors. 

Water will usually do the trick, but we recommend you use our Goulet Pen Flush if the ink has been left in the pen for a while and could have dried up, or when you’re switching ink colors.

My pen won’t write! What do I do? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

First things first... make sure you have ink in the pen! Be sure that the ink cartridge or converter is seated properly in the pen, and that you aren't out of ink.

We always recommend you give your pen a good cleaning first, using our Goulet Pen Flush, or a drop of dish soap in some water. New pens often have some machining oil residue left in the feed, so a good cleaning often does the trick first.

If that still doesn't work, try priming the feed. This consists of either dipping your pen nib and feed in ink, or forcing ink from the converter down into the feed. 

If it’s still not working after that, please reach out to us so we can help! 

What's your return policy? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Please note we are unable to accept a return of any Namiki or Sailor Bespoke fountain pen for any reason once it has been used with ink. Please thoroughly inspect and dry test the pen before use.
