Thanks for this video, really helped me. I’m going to try the chalk, oil and the distressed. I have the Ranger archival now and the ghosting is just way too much for me. What about pens, do you have a video about a pen with minimal ghosting?

I don't think any material beats celluloid, what a beautiful pen. Your camera focuses about as well as my eyes do these days 😉that said, the pictures online do not do this pen justice.

wow, that is gorgeous !!

Hiya, thank you for your video. Just wondering if your grey scout is the one called magnet?

It's beautiful!

Is that cover a gillio? Love it 😍

You’re awesome for posting this 🙌🙌

Hi my friend!!!! This pen is SOO *you*!! I love it!!!!

I’m in the process of selling off my Sailors and investing in more Leonardos, so I’m with you on excluding Sailor from the top five. The ones I’ve paid to have tuned and smoothed write great, but the rest are too scratchy for my liking. Just nope. Leonardos, on the other hand, write amazing out of the box. Good choice for top five. I’ll have to try an Esterbrook some day!

I do wish Sterling Ink would darken the the print and grid lines. The print is way too light especially for older eyes. I do like the white paper. Not a fan of cream pages as colored pens and markers look dull.

I love this idea and think I need to start this….next year 😅. Merry Christmas 🎄

Nice that you are doing multiple years of Christmas times, and seeing your family celebrating! Well done!

For intermediate pens, you cant go wrong with Pilot. Great variety of nibs and bodies and perfect quality, and I would say reasonably priced all things considered. Metal Falcon, Justus95, 742, 743, Capless Decimo.

I am like 90percent sure that Sailor wrote well , you must have misunderstood the nib

Your symptoms sound like Alpha gal syndrome. If you don’t get better soon, consider it. You can get a full panel tick blood test from your doctor. Probably won’t cost you anything with insurance and you could rule it out. Hope you feel better.

Hi where are your dividers from?

Thank you. What was wrong with the Sailors? Did you not like the feedback? They all have it. What model and colorway is your Pilot? It’s very lovely. My top 5 (in no particular order) are the Esterbrook Estie (most recently „King of the Night“, Lamy 2000 Stainless Steel, Waterman Carene Coral, Santini Libra Cappuccino, Franklin Christoph with Sig Nib. HM: Little Pen Designs Candy Nougat, Opus 88

Love your videos always. I've watched a few youtubes of a nutritionist who has SIBO and it does not sound like fun at all.

Amen! God is in control. He reaches out to us in our busyness and hectic lives to see if we'll be faithful to Him and trust Him with the chaos and our stress. Thank you for giving glory to God. It's very encouraging for me to see.

May I ask you how you find these cover as of today? Are they durable? Is it hard to keep the canvas clean?

I just found you from Talks of the heart” I’m so HAPPY I DID! I need to know why your videos haven’t shown up in my feed, I want to see more females doing reviews on FP’s…I mean Doodlebud is great along with Sbrebrown. Maybe I just feel some kind of way about all the topics I love and learn about on RUclips seemingly being dominated by male content creators…and I’m like come on ladies!!! Sooo YAY! I found your channel!🎉 Side note it’s less about male vs. female for me and more about the content itself. Did I learn from the content what I needed/wanted to learn or did I just watch/listen to someone ramble for 20 mins only to pick up a few key points that were relevant. You did a fantastic job on this video. I will be binge watching your videos and “Talk from the heart.”

My top five include: esterbrook estie, Leonardo MZG, Pelikan m600, twsbi eco, pilot kakuno

I wasn’t able to find that cover their Etsy shop. When did you happen to buy it? Thanks in advance!

Sailor doesn't land, nor do any of the Japanese pens land in my top 5.

Congratulations. It’s a beautiful pen. Your custom pen is a Momento Zero Grande (MZG) and it’s a piston filler. Some of the MZG have an ink window ( not all) and those are the MZG 2.0. Your Nuvola amd Fioritura Viola ( the pens you placed on the extreme right) are a smaller version of the MZG. They are the Momento Zero (MZ) model and are cartridge/converters. The Momento Magico is a Piston filler too. It’s made for those who prefer a smaller piston filling pen, since the MZG is a chonker of a pen.

Thank you! Love your pens. I have an Esty, and Pilot pens are great. I have the same trouble with Sailor. Where did you send the pen to be tuned? Blessings

Interesting I had a similar experience with my Sailor Pro Gear (f) it needed me to tune it as the nibs were misaligned but once that issue was resolved I use it more that any other pen I own. Strangely my handwriting looks the best with it

Great list. My experience with Sailor has been great and I would substitute a Sailor 1911L and move the Montblanc to HM. THANKS!

Thanks for sharing your experiences and I agree with all except for Montblanc. I recently purchased a MB 149 directly from Montblanc as an anniversary gift and it came defective right out of the box with a major leak. It was sent out to their repair center (instead of swapping it out immediately with a new one) and that ordeal took 2.5 months. In the end it is a mediocre writer and the repair ordeal soured the experience even further. IMHO the Pilot 823 runs circles around the MB 149 that I have and costing significantly less. I know that experience differ but that is why this pen will never make my top 5 list.

The way you feel about Sailor is the way I feel about Montblanc. A lot of how well a pen writes out of the box depends on where you got it. If you purchase from a brick and mortar store, but do so online, you might be getting the pen that in-store customers tried but passed on. If you purchase from someone like Atlas or Yoseka, you can ask to have them test the pen. You shouldn’t have that problem with Sailor. Amazon purchases tend to be the worst for me, and sometimes obviously resold returns. My Montblanc came straight from the factory, so there is no excuse for it hemorrhaging ink and writing like a rusty fishing hook.😆 You’ve inspired me to do a mid-range top-5 video too but tl;dr at the moment I’d go: 1. Edison Collier or Jameson (as alternatives to your Esterbrook, and you can get one custom made for not much more) 2. Lamy 2000 (really the only one that differs from your list much, but it seems you prefer a certain style) 3. Pilot 743 or 823 4. Yeah, Leonardo MZT 5. Aurora 88 (to replace the MB at around half the price) For honorable mentions, I’d list Parker 51 and Pelikan same as your pick - 600, 800, 1000. You have good taste and seem to have well-earned opinions. Own it! Kudos!

I still don't get how Esterbrook charge so much for a steel Jowo nib. Also why people choose it over cheaper gold nib pens.

Wow, I can see how you would have that opinion on Sailor with a 0/4 success rate. I have probably 25 though, and have only had 1 nib that needed tuning because it was a little scratchy on one side. Sailor is in my top 3 brands! (Obviously, because I have way too many. 🙈)

1. Which models are the Pilot and MB? 2. Sailor Boi here. Perhaps Sailor's nib qualities are not for you. You should be able to sell them easily, for a good price. 3. My collection is dominated by Sailor and Franklin-Christoph.

I absolutely love the platinum nibs and have collected several. Haven't ventured into Montblanc land as I am a bit intimidated and they are pricey

I 100% agree with you on Sailor!

Nice collection! I haven’t gotten brave enough to break the $100 price point for a pen. All of your top 5 are on my wish list tho

As an intermediate collector, myself, I agree with your Top 5 and Honorable Mentions 100%

LV designs in this way so that you can only use their refills ! 😉 The cover of your refill is too thick and makes the clasp hard to close. 😉

“This won’t be a really detailed video” *Proceeds to create a SUPER detailed video* 😂😂😂😂 This is not a criticism. I love this comparison video. It moves a little slow, but that’s what the playback speed settings are for. 😉 Great information. Thank you. btw, Moterm now offers a higher quality vegetable tanned leather option, similar to Gillio (it wasn’t available when this video was created).

What is the name of your planner cover they're super cute and every time i watch i miss it...😂

You can get zipper wax in a stick and run it on the brass zipper and it’ll make it smooth as butter ❤

I’ve never heard of the Journey Planner!!

Ayee Truphae is amazing! It’s very local to me and I really should not go there as often as I do LOL

Nice pen! I have fallen deep into the rabbit hole. Waiting for my first Visconti - HS Iris Garden

Thank you for a good comparison! I will get a Hobonichi for my yearly memory-keeping journal. I like to have the protective thicker cover for that. I will get the Sterling Ink for budgeting and money-matters. More space to write on for every week, I prefer the grid-page on Sterling ink so I prefer that version for anything with numbers. This year I was gifted a Kinbor weeks by my husband but next year I look forward to a Sterling Ink version.

Really pretty nail polish! Like the inks too💕 I like how the pen color matches your polish!

You're really making me want to one 🥹

I have the Mythos Apollo and Poseidon and they are my very favorite pens! Nice color with your new Visconti! ❤

It’s gorgeous ❤

When does this come out??
