Parker refills in the UK today

Parker rollerball pens in the UK today: Most fountain pen manufacturers issue their new pens with a medium grade nib. There is no industry standard to define the specific width of a medium grade nib, and so nibs will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Medium grade nibs are generally suitable for the majority of people who choose to write with a fountain pen. However, alternatives are available. People who have small handwriting can struggle to write with a fountain pen whose medium nib will be simply too broad for their penmanship. The problem? When they form the letters e, a, and o, the letters will look the same, while the circular elements of the letters d, p and b will fill with ink. Exchanging this person’s medium nib for a fine grade nib will transform their writing experience and allow them to write with the definition and the style that only comes from writing with a beautiful fountain pen.

A novelty pen is a writing implement that is visually or functionally distinct from a standard pen. To amuse, promote, or serve as a keepsake are common motivations for producing such items. It could be in the shape of an animal or an uncommon object, have LED lights and music, or be themed for a specific holiday, cultural, or even company event.

When words of gratitude are needed, a pen can speak volumes. Whether thanking a mentor, teacher, or friend, a pen represents appreciation and respect. Pairing the pen with a heartfelt handwritten note can leave a lasting impression, showing that you truly value the recipient. Writing is a powerful form of self-expression. It allows individuals to clarify their thoughts, share their stories, and unleash their creativity. By gifting a pen, you are encouraging the recipient to embrace this joy. The act of writing with a quality pen can be an enjoyable experience, making the recipient look forward to putting pen to paper. Imagine a friend who loves to journal receiving a stunning pen. Each time they write, they’ll think of you and the thoughtfulness behind the gift. This connection fosters a deeper bond, creating shared memories associated with the writing experience.

Picking up this pen after an interval, is always a joy. Its contours and weight all suggest quality, although in terms of Parker’s range of fountain pens, it might be ranked as entry level to the upper echelons. Unusually, it was available with a choice of steel or gold nib. On re-inking the pen recently I found in the following days, that the pen always left an inky stain on my second finger where I had rested the pen – rather like a smoker’s finger. Despite wiping the section carefully, this continued. I deduced that the ink was coming from behind the flared metal ring at the point where it meets the black resin section. Initially I thought that perhaps the ring had not been glued and sealed sufficiently such that ink would get trapped behind it when dipping in an ink bottle. To investigate, I flushed the pen and then unscrewed the nib and feed unit. The nib housing simply unscrews from the section. To my surprise, the metal ring then came off the section: it was not glued on at all. (Note: if disassembling a pen over a basin, be sure to have the plug in). Parker nib disassembled. Note that the metal ring is not glued into place. Note also that the rubber O ring sits on the back of the nib housing.

If your steel-nibbed fountain pen is not going to be used for some time, we recommend you clean it and remove all the ink from the nib. This will give you the maximum service from your nib. One of the softer metals, solid gold has less ability to bend back into its original shape than steel, which makes it ideal for fountain pen nibs. As you start to write with a solid gold nib, it will begin to respond to the pressure you exert on your pen and begin to fit or ‘bed in’ to your style of handwriting. We recommend that after purchase, you use your gold-nibbed fountain pen every day for at least two or three weeks. After this amount of use, then, your nib will write in this way for the rest of its life.
