Congratulations on the milestone! Love your channel... you definitely put a lot of research into every review and the number of people watching reflects that others appreciate your efforts. The interview with NGT was a highlight. I think famous events and the Pens that were there would be fascinating.
Congratulations on 1 million views!! Your reviews have been really helpful. I'd love to just see more videos in general. They are always really interesting to watch. :)
Congratulations on your membership of the million club. The Duofold oblique nib looks absolutely gorgeous. The Lamy Petrol will be the perfect fuel for any fountain pen. May the Force be with you Jedi Master Parker, Fountain of the Force.
I love your videos already and I’m excited about the fact that you say you have plenty of content and ideas to keep the videos coming. I still love the video where you provide alternatives to pens you disliked. I would like to see some “now how does this stack up to a *random pen that most people have*” comparisons added to the videos. Keep up the good work and congratulations on the milestone. And thank you for the opportunity!
Hi David, congrats on the one million views! I would say they are justly deserved, your channel is entertaining and very informative at the same time! I have the notifications on for your channel, so I would say I pretty much watched every new video of yours since I have discovered you and rediscovered fountain pens, about one year ago :)
Congratulations on one million views! I might like to see some reviews on leather pen cases/sleeves. Not at all necessary, I just don't see a great deal of them out there. This is definitely a fun giveaway! Thank you, David! Best of luck on your quest for the perfect Parker!
Thanks for the review, David - my only plea (moving forward) is that you maintain a balance between higher and lower end pens. Much as I like to see pens on your channel that will *never* be affordable to hold in the hand (!), I also enjoy seeing you review pens that might be more approachable. Congratulations on your milestone - I wish you every success!
Thank you for always uploading amazing videos, we can tell the work that you put behind and we appreciate it. I really like it just the way it is right now!
Thanks for the review. I really like the line variation oblique nibs provide. I found that I too rotate the pen when writing and so I began getting that grind on my pens and have been very pleased with the character it provides to the letters. In terms of your channel would love to see additional interviews with pen collectors.
Congratulations on the milestone! I've been looking for the Lamy Petrol. My friend just got one and I've been looking around for a bottle to gift her for Christmas. As for what I would like to see more of... I can't think of anything. Love the videos.
Thank you David, I looked at some vintsge Duofolds at the Triangle show, and wasn't quite yet ready to spend that much. Perhaps someday. Thanks for the ink giveaway! Also, I noticed the penwell in the background. I hope to see that reviewed soon!
Thanks for the review and giveaway - and congrats on the big milestone! I personally have a lot of different kinds of notebooks, bullet journals, and sketchbooks with a bunch of cases to go along with them. It'd be cool to see how you use your pens in the wild.
Congrats on a tremendous milestone! I couldn't help but notice the "Penwell" (it looks like aluminum one). How do you like it? I have one in Walnut and very much like both the concept and how well it actually works for me. You can skip this "entry" for the drawing - while I love Lamy's Petrol Ink, I don't need another bottle and would prefer someone else to have the chance to enjoy it! Thanks for your reviews.
I would love to see more Q&As! I think that format allows for showcasing lots of lovely pens and I always love to hear content creators opinions on things.
I always enjoy when you show cards of the ink you are using with a couple of comparable colors. I would love to see you do a few ink reviews, where you ink up a few pens and see how the ink behaves. You mentioned the Waterman ink that you were using was a dry ink but it might be wetter in other pens.
I like the look of this Parker Duofold Maxima. I too have been more into the newer pens. I've never even tried a Parker fountain pen. I loved your explanation of the right or left oblique. That made it very easy to understand. I really like the reviews you've done, and don't see a need to improve there. Maybe you could have a fellow pen lover do a review with you sometime, or do an interview with a pen fanatic? Keep up the good work!
Congratulations on the million views and the partnership with RUclips. Keep the great work. I would like to see more list videos. Top 5 steel nibs, top 5 demonstrators, etc.
Congratulations on reaching a million views! Since you mentioned rotating your pens when you write, have you looked at a Parker 75 or its precursor the VP? Both were designed with adjustable nib rotation. Regarding future topics, how about an overview of your collection and some thoughts on its evolution? Maybe a few more vintage pen reviews in the mix? Keep up the great work!
I saw that you're going to be traveling, and I think it would be interesting to see your comments on pen and paraphernalia use when on the road. Congrats on the million views!
I'd be interested to see more of what you have from your Conid Bulkfiller. I've been contemplating one myself, so I'm especially curious to know what you think of it in your own use.
Thank you for continuing to produce excellent pen reviews. As for other/additional content, I wouldn’t mind seeing some paper or ink reviews. More than that, though, some interviews (like the one you did with NdT) would be awesome!
Congrats on the milestone! I would like to think that my binge-watching contributed to this. 😆 Video idea: storage ideas for pens / inks ? My collection is overtaking my office and I wonder how to properly store everything while being able to catalog/ rotate through or purge items altogether.
I love my duofold maximas. I like that you reviewed a new nib grind. I'd like to see more of those. I've had some work done by Mike masuyama and mark bacas. Any experience with other nib meisters?
Congratulations on your 1,000,000 views David! Yours is a great channel and it’s great to hear you will be increasing your uploads over the coming weeks. Sticking with Parker, I’d really like you review both the current incarnation of the IM and the Premier. I have both in my collection and consider them to be superb pens, especially at the price point. But they are rarely reviewed and as such are so very much overlooked. Please give them both a try! I’ll even send mine to you to review. Thanks.
I would love to see more of your collection and why you like them after some time, usually in reviews we hear the good and band points at the first sight, maybe a month. But it would be nice to see which pens you reach more.
Congrats, and thank you for the review! As this year is coming to a close, how about some reviews on calendars/planners that utilize fountain pen friendly paper? Happy Holidays!
Lovely pen; I have several vintage Parker pens and have yet to find one I dislike. On the topic of what I’d like to see, since you say you aren’t into vintage pens all that much, how about an overview of what vintage pens you do have in your collection, ranked according to your preference?
Dave, I'd be really interested for you to review the new Parker Duofold Centennial Big Red! I've seen this pen but have not been able to handle it. It looks amazing and from what I heard, they're great writers.Congratulations to your channel's milestone and happy holidays!
Congratulations on 1 million view! love watching your videos, it helps me a lot understanding the world of fountain pen. Also would love to get that lamy petrol ink for my collection.
Great job David! Frank from Boulder here, I have a vintage strained Duofold that I love in terms of the colors.. it is far too fine for my taste.. very scratchy! Hey, do you still like and use your Wahl Eversharp D ecoband? I have a Rosewood with the Superflex.. I had several initial issues.. hopefully solved now. Neither you nor Matt have mentioned it since?? Best wishes Mr. Parker.. I do also have a new Lapis Duofold Centennial.. love it.. Frank Bruno in Boulder, Colorado
As with you David, my first ever fountain pen purchase was a Parker; but in my case, a modern day Duofold. As with yourself, I used the Parker exclusively for many years, before having my eyes opened to the wider world of fps. While I now own pens from many manufacturers (aided in part by your wonderful videos) my modern Duofold remains one of my favourite pens in my collection and still used almost everyday. This year I added a Parker Premier to my collection which I also like very much. Should you wish to further explore Parker pens, I would recommend both the modern Duofold and Premier to you of pens worthy of your attention.
What a coincidence. I was looking up the Parker Maxima yesterday night and this video was just published the same day?! I've now subscribed. Always saw your reviews but wasn't in the habit of subscribing. Why not, see things first hand, right? Please enter me into the giveaway and keep sharing the fountain pen love. :)
Congratulations!!! I think you can incorporate similar pens during a writing sample. Similar in nib width, nib size, and inks to have a greater discussion of wet vs dry writing.
Actually, I wonder if you are holding the pen correctly for an oblique nib. It looks like you are holding it sideways, but actually it is designed to be held as any other pen with a slight lean toward the flatter side of the grind. Just a thought. Thanks for the review.
Congrats on the million. Glad you're venturing into notebooks. I'd say do more ink reviews but there's not much more you can say to fill an entire video.
Congrats on meeting a milestone (1 mm views). Another good review of the Parker Duofold Maxima. How about reviewing the Parker Duofold Senior 125th anniversary limited edition in the future?
I am now pleasantly hooked on fountain pens thanks mainly to you. I am taking your advice and enjoying the ones I have purchased, a couple under $50 but now have my eye on a couple in the next step up. Also a golfer so like the shirts with the logos. You certainly have a lot of courses to choose from though living in California I also get to play all year! And would enjoy the ink because I did buy the pen of same color. Thanks for the videos.
Yes...that's one of many things I miss about Southern California. I didn't play as much as I would have liked this year. Want to get out more next year. Would like to get up to NY to play Bethpage.
Mr. Parker! I need that ink badly! But mostly I have an idea for you: More interviews with famous people to see what pens they have, to see their collections and interact with them! Also interview w/ other big names of the FP world like some nibmeisters! Have a nice weekend!
It would be interesting to see reviews of other things, but please don't give up focus on fountain pen reviews. While I read many reviews, yours are among the few I always check out if I am considering buying a pen. Congratulations on the 2 million views!
As someone newer to the fountain pen world id be interesting in seeing more budget pen options. Most people know about the metro and the lamys and the eco, but there's a lot of other sub $50 pens out there that its a lot harder to learn about due to a lack of coverage.
The Parker Vacumatic Maxima was the first pen I remember my Grandpa and my Father using years back when I was growing up in North-Eastern India. They were treasured pens. i think I will get one when I go to the Ohio Pen Show this November. Thank you
Hi David, I enjoyed your Parker Duofold review but like you I'm not so much into vintage pens. I do however own two Duofolds, the Big Red Centennial with factory stub and a Black with G/T Centennial medium nib. The stub is now With Mike Masuyama getting optimized. I had purchased a pack of Lamy Petro cartridges and liked using it very much but never got around to ordering a bottle wish I truly regret. I have never won anything in the fountain pen world so I'm hoping this will be the one. Thank you for your reviews which I always look forward to like my morning coffee.
Thanks for this review and generosity ! I'm not from India but i'd still be glad to be a french winner ! About your channel, to me, it's perfectly fine as it is, that's why I love it ! Well, to be completely honest, I'd love to see more..... GINNY !!!! But i guess it's off topic, right ? ;-D Love from France to you and your loved ones, Marjorie
Congratulations on a million views! I think it'd be neat to see a series of videos on ink properties -- lots of people talk about wet vs. dry inks, lubricated inks, well-behaved inks, easy-to-clean inks, etc., without a lot of quantitative detail. Your meticulous nature might have something to add here :)
Congratulations William. You have won the random drawing for the bottle of Lamy Petrol Ink. Please email your contact info to figbootonpens@gmail.com by Friday the 15th. Thanks!
Hello, Thank you for the view on a vintage pen. Would like to see more vintage reviews too. Also, perhaps doing two or three different ink types in the review to see how it affects the writing of the pen.
Congrats! Thanks for the giveaway. Honestly I can't really think of something for you to cover, since you've had a lot of videos. Maybe updated top 5-10 pens videos at different price points?
I would like to see a little more on the design and educational front. For example, we know Lamy generally follows Bauhaus and Minimalist cues, whereas the Parker 51 seems so obviously Mid-Century Modern. It'd be neat to show non-pen examples of those design movements when discussing the design of the pens.
Congratulations on the milestone! Love your channel... you definitely put a lot of research into every review and the number of people watching reflects that others appreciate your efforts. The interview with NGT was a highlight. I think famous events and the Pens that were there would be fascinating.
The big red is also on my wish list!
I’d like to see more paper, ink and accessories like pen cases, storage and even pen stands!
Love your reviews of paper/notebooks. Some of the best I've seen, very thorough and a pleasure to watch
Congratulations on 1 million views!! Your reviews have been really helpful. I'd love to just see more videos in general. They are always really interesting to watch. :)

I have the notifications on for your channel, so I would say I pretty much watched every new video of yours since I have discovered you and rediscovered fountain pens, about one year ago :)

Oh WoW! Congrats to the million views! I so love your videos! They are always so informative and fun to watch! Keep the going!
Would be interesting to see some more ink reviews. Congrats on the million views!
Thanks. How about an ink tour? Maybe you've done this already, but I imagine yours is catalogued nicely.
Congrats on 1 million views! Always enjoy your videos.
Congratulations on one million views! I might like to see some reviews on leather pen cases/sleeves. Not at all necessary, I just don't see a great deal of them out there. This is definitely a fun giveaway! Thank you, David! Best of luck on your quest for the perfect Parker!
I continue to enjoy your pen reviews, as you have approached them. Thank you.
More ink reviews and comparisons would be nice, but I think your content is great as it is.
I would love to see more of your personal ink collection!
Congrats on the million views! I really like the writing samples in your videos. For this particular pen, the writing sample is especially nice.
Congratulations! What a great milestone! I adore your ink selection for this video.
Thanks for the review, David - my only plea (moving forward) is that you maintain a balance between higher and lower end pens. Much as I like to see pens on your channel that will *never* be affordable to hold in the hand (!), I also enjoy seeing you review pens that might be more approachable. Congratulations on your milestone - I wish you every success!
I'd love to see some more paper reviews from you. You do a very thorough job of covering every aspect of the paper. I enjoy them quite a bit.
Congrats on the million views! Great review as always. Would be great to see ink comparisons within each color family.
Thank you for always uploading amazing videos, we can tell the work that you put behind and we appreciate it. I really like it just the way it is right now!
I wouldn't mind seeing what vintage pens you have tried, or might try in the future. There are some spectacular older pens out there!
Thanks for the review. I really like the line variation oblique nibs provide. I found that I too rotate the pen when writing and so I began getting that grind on my pens and have been very pleased with the character it provides to the letters. In terms of your channel would love to see additional interviews with pen collectors.

More ink reviews, please! That would be awesome!
I've really enjoyed this channel and I'm not surprised others have to the tune of a million views! More stationary reviews would be fun :)
Thank you David, I looked at some vintsge Duofolds at the Triangle show, and wasn't quite yet ready to spend that much. Perhaps someday. Thanks for the ink giveaway! Also, I noticed the penwell in the background. I hope to see that reviewed soon!

Would love a video on top pens for large hands! Thanks David

I like it when you tell stories - I wouldn't mind hearing more small or big little stories from your life.
Congratulations on reaching a million views!
Since you mentioned rotating your pens when you write, have you looked at a Parker 75 or its precursor the VP? Both were designed with adjustable nib rotation.

I saw that you're going to be traveling, and I think it would be interesting to see your comments on pen and paraphernalia use when on the road. Congrats on the million views!
Congratulations on the great achievement! I'd like to see more paper reviews and some ink reviews. And if possible, more Ginny.
I always love reviews of limited edition things, especially if they are timely. But I’d love to have you do a lot more ink reviews.
Congratulations! Wishing you millions more!
I'd be interested to see more of what you have from your Conid Bulkfiller. I've been contemplating one myself, so I'm especially curious to know what you think of it in your own use.

As usual, great review and generous giveaway :-) I think you've got a good thing going, but Daisy content is always entertaining!
I love my duofold maximas. I like that you reviewed a new nib grind. I'd like to see more of those. I've had some work done by Mike masuyama and mark bacas. Any experience with other nib meisters?

I would love to see a complete collection at some point. All current bottles of ink and current pens!
Hey David, thank's for the review. I would love to see more INK Reviews...
I would love to see more of your collection and why you like them after some time, usually in reviews we hear the good and band points at the first sight, maybe a month. But it would be nice to see which pens you reach more.
You do a very thorough job in your reviews. Id like to see other vintage pens covered.
Congrats, and thank you for the review! As this year is coming to a close, how about some reviews on calendars/planners that utilize fountain pen friendly paper? Happy Holidays!

Great review . I would definitely like to see paper reviews. Keep up the great work!
The last notebook review was very nice, I'd love to see more of those

Those Parker Maximas are pretty! Your channel is great!
Congratulations on 1 million view! love watching your videos, it helps me a lot understanding the world of fountain pen. Also would love to get that lamy petrol ink for my collection.
I really loved your Hippo Noto notebook review and I think more reviews like it would be great!
Congrats! I wouldn't mind seeing some pen, paper, and ink combos that you like.
Great job David! Frank from Boulder here, I have a vintage strained Duofold that I love in terms of the colors.. it is far too fine for my taste.. very scratchy!

Yes...I still have my WE Decoband, and care for it a great deal. Unsure if it will make my top 10 list I'll put out later this month...we'll see.
Huge congrats on 1m views! I would love to see some more ink reviews

I️ would love to see more than one review a week! You’re my favorite reviewer by far, figboot :)
Also, I️ would love to be entered bingo the giveaway!
I would like to see comparison videos. Like the montblanc 146 vs sailor 1911l or tomoe river vs rhodia.
I enjoy your reviews! Thanks for doing the giveaways.
what is your favorite paper do you use? do you switch it up ???
Hi. Thanks for the review. I would love seeing some more reviews on paper and inks.
I have 2 Parker pens with fine nibs and I love to use them. I use them for everyday writing and I have no regrets. Nice video.
Congratulations!!! I think you can incorporate similar pens during a writing sample. Similar in nib width, nib size, and inks to have a greater discussion of wet vs dry writing.
Actually, I wonder if you are holding the pen correctly for an oblique nib. It looks like you are holding it sideways, but actually it is designed to be held as any other pen with a slight lean toward the flatter side of the grind. Just a thought. Thanks for the review.
Congrats on the million. Glad you're venturing into notebooks. I'd say do more ink reviews but there's not much more you can say to fill an entire video.
Congratulations for the 1 million ! Why no talk more about ink styles and maintenance as additional talks. Best regards
I am really enjoying the "Other than fountain pen reviews". Fountain pens are still top dog but it's nice to see other pen related items mixed in.
Congrats on meeting a milestone (1 mm views). Another good review of the Parker Duofold Maxima. How about reviewing the Parker Duofold Senior 125th anniversary limited edition in the future?
I am now pleasantly hooked on fountain pens thanks mainly to you. I am taking your advice and enjoying the ones I have purchased, a couple under $50 but now have my eye on a couple in the next step up. Also a golfer so like the shirts with the logos. You certainly have a lot of courses to choose from though living in California I also get to play all year! And would enjoy the ink because I did buy the pen of same color. Thanks for the videos.
Yes...that's one of many things I miss about Southern California. I didn't play as much as I would have liked this year. Want to get out more next year. Would like to get up to NY to play Bethpage.
More ink reviews would be interesting. Thanks for doing the giveaway.
I'd love to see some more ink reviews as I'm trying expand the inks I use beyond black and blue.
Appreciate your thorough review, David.
Mr. Parker! I need that ink badly! But mostly I have an idea for you: More interviews with famous people to see what pens they have, to see their collections and interact with them! Also interview w/ other big names of the FP world like some nibmeisters! Have a nice weekend!
Loving the vintage Duofolds! I've been on the lookout for one for myself...
It would be interesting to see reviews of other things, but please don't give up focus on fountain pen reviews. While I read many reviews, yours are among the few I always check out if I am considering buying a pen.
Congratulations on the 2 million views!
I have about twenty Parkers. For the time being my two favorites are the modern Duofold International and the Vacumatic.
How about a survey of inks by color, e.g. "the best purple inks", "the best brown inks," etc?
As someone newer to the fountain pen world id be interesting in seeing more budget pen options. Most people know about the metro and the lamys and the eco, but there's a lot of other sub $50 pens out there that its a lot harder to learn about due to a lack of coverage.
Thanks for the Review, I personally would like to see more videos that cover varying price points independently.
Would like to see more ink reviews. I’m a newer member of the fountain pen community and would enjoy winning that bottle of ink.
The Parker Vacumatic Maxima was the first pen I remember my Grandpa and my Father using years back when I was growing up in North-Eastern India. They were treasured pens. i think I will get one when I go to the Ohio Pen Show this November. Thank you
Interesting pen. When you review vintage pens, would you also mention where they can be purchased and what the cost is. Great review.
I realized after I posted the video that I neglected to mention price. I should have included that. Dooh!
Hi David, I enjoyed your Parker Duofold review but like you I'm not so much into vintage pens. I do however own two Duofolds, the Big Red Centennial with factory stub and a Black with G/T Centennial medium nib. The stub is now With Mike Masuyama getting optimized. I had purchased a pack of Lamy Petro cartridges and liked using it very much but never got around to ordering a bottle wish I truly regret. I have never won anything in the fountain pen world so I'm hoping this will be the one. Thank you for your reviews which I always look forward to like my morning coffee.

Congratulations William. You have won the random drawing for the bottle of Lamy Petrol Ink. Please email your contact info to figbootonpens@gmail.com by Friday the 15th. Thanks!
I'm actually just curious about that Lamy Aion. But, I'm guessing the review of that will be sometime later.
Hello,
Thank you for the view on a vintage pen. Would like to see more vintage reviews too. Also, perhaps doing two or three different ink types in the review to see how it affects the writing of the pen.
Congrats! Thanks for the giveaway. Honestly I can't really think of something for you to cover, since you've had a lot of videos. Maybe updated top 5-10 pens videos at different price points?
I would like to see a little more on the design and educational front.

It'd be neat to show non-pen examples of those design movements when discussing the design of the pens.
