Ahhh… Conid bulk filler… I’d never heard of Conid!

It is an awesome pen.

I really like pilot ef nibs. The finest. Where are you located? If in the 🇺🇸, I can give you more options.

@Shak-MD I am doctor in Greece🇬🇷 since 2004. So I will try EF of Pilot !

@christos.21 Awesome. 743 is a great one. I have several. I also ground my m into ef. Good too.

Thanks. The curved nib is an awesome pen, but along with many others, it didn't make it to top 5. OBB, F, OM, OB, B, etc didn't make it either.

Thank you for the feedback. I will try that... or maybe music only to fill the silence.

That vs. Would make a great video. Thanks. Will do that.

Thanks!

Hi. Thank you. The 149 can be found much cheaper than retail suggested prices. New ones are only found in the boutiques. I stop at nothing to bring my sissies the best of Montblanc nibs. Even if it means I'll take much longer to pay off my student loans. Life is too short to stress about student loans too much... right? Thank you for watching!

Thank you very much. The much ef is as smooth it smoother than pelikan m1000ef, smoother than pilot fine, and puts to utter shame all bock 380s I have tried. Amazing nib. If imperfect out of the box, can easily be perfectly tuned. 75th anniversary is considered vintage in my book.... so, it will be part of my next video. I have 2... one is eef by Kirk Speer. It is just about my best eef nib. Stay tuned 😀.

I have some older EF nibs coming up soon. Thanks! Interestingly, in my book, the modern EF is a more pleasant writer than the vintage ef. But I will be sure to discuss that.

😍

Thanks MMD! Vintage video is in the making.

Thank you. That is Montblanc ultramarine.

The 149 medium can be modified in many good ways, better than F and EF can. I am thoroughly enjoying all of these. I will be doing top 5 vintage nibs as well 😀 ... The 75th anniversary falls in that category..

Thank you, John. They do make great nibs. I have yet to try some of their other bespoke nibs.

Thanks so much, I find that to be an analog of the kyuseido pen from a distance. I have a hard time justifying the price tag.

Thank you. I currently have 4 of the flexes in rotation. I really love the fineness and use less wet inks in them to get finer lines yet. I have several videos showing how nicely these can flex. Generally, I get very little railroading unless pushed beyond reason. I find the nibs behave even better in Conid. Sending to service is a good thought when the time comes.

I have the Calligraphy 149 burgundy, I send it twice to get fix, I still have 5 months guarantee, I will send it one last time and use like you as an extra fine and not flex it again.

@@frankv7068 They are awesome for ef writing. Repurpised, if you will. Cheers!

Thanks! I got it from ebay.

Thanks!

EF any day.

I find that to be an analog of the Kyuseido pen from distance. I have a hard time justifying the tag. Maybe I can borrow one from PV for review, though I doubt that.

About 150 and a couple of hrs work in garage.

Yes. Brand new!

True.

Hope they bring back. I used the nib and feed from M800.

I just checked the website and it looks like they’re back in stock. They may have listened to my email I sent. I bought a pelican M 800 broad for €145 on the Giardino Italiano site so looking forward to doing your swap.

Hi. Thank you for watching. This paper is Clairefontaine 90 gram/meter squared Séyès ruled paper.

From what I remember in the pen show, Rouge was quite a bit slimmer.

It works fine when I use it, but it is underutilized in my bag. Lovely pens. I find Jinhao 9016 to be a better overall pen, mostly due to size. The nib is also amazing.

Clairefontaine 90 gsm Séyès ruled paper.

You are right, as I noted in 03:15 timeline, the grip section is made of plastic. The converter sometimes becomes tricky to use, but generally works I find. You have to make sure that little tube is not in contact with the wall of the convertor in order to suck in ink....that is crap, and a 1400 dollar convertor should work better. Japanese are great at wrapping amazing nibs in trashy bodies, and it sells! Look at all sailor KOPs with plastic body, cheapest plastic in the industry, imo!

They are great. But I am saying in comparison, they are not as smooth. The PO nibs I have are good, but not as pleasant as the Pilot EF nibs.

@@Shak-MD Well, anytime that you go up in size of the tip it should be smoother. I didn't buy this PO nib for writing letters with, but I wouldn't be afraid of using it. I think that your tips are misaligned a tad.

Good to know. Thank you..

My pleasure! I do have a posting nib from pilot. It is inferior to their EF nib. It is actually scratchy. This one, while not as fine, is a dream 😍 to write with. It was truly a " happy little accident ".

@@Shak-MD You need to send it in for a replacement because my Pilot 912 PO nib is not scratchy. I bought it around seven months ago and haven't had any problems with it. I've even wrote a few paragraphs in letters to let others see how it looks on paper.

I would tell, but it would spoil my top 10 nibs video 😀

Kkkk !!! 😂😂😂

It is quite a bit smoother than pilot posting... not as fine mind you, but one of the sweetest nibs...giving the emperor a run for tis money.
