Keeping up with the rapid development of modern fountain pen manufacturing is difficult, but we are happy to have gotten our hands on this Magna Carta Emotions fountain pen. Preowned it looks nearly perfect, EXCEPT, it has a very loose pocket clip. We love the clear demonstrator with white-swirl design. It section grip is about the same size as a Pelikan M1000. It's a big pen. It comes with a standard international converter and takes like cartridges. Click the headline for a close-up to see its steel semi-flex nib. You'll write a smooth extra-fine to roughly 1mm wide line. 14.2cm capped.

We search far and wide for all the latest and greatest pens. Today we are very excited to showcase a gigantic pen from India's Ranga Pen Company. We don't know the model name, but we do know that it is made from a fantastic blue-and-tan hard rubber. Like a really old vintage pen, you fill this with an eyedropper. It can definitely hold a lot of ink. As a special treat, it comes preloaded with a two-tone steel "FPR Flex" nib. FPR stands for Fountain Pen Revolution. While it has flex, we consider it more of a semi-flex than a wet-noodle flex. Nevertheless, you will write from about a medium to more than 1mm wide! This pen looks brand new to us. 15cm capped.

We love a good name engraved on a pen. Hazel Goff owned this Gold Bond ringtop pen. We don't know anything about her...other than that she was a biter. The cap and tail of this pen have a lot of bite marks. We restored it with a new ink sac. Hazel clearly made this a beloved tool for writing. It has a few deep scratches and wear. No cracks. No brassing. You might love writing with it, too. It has a semi-flex nib that writes a fine line to about a 1mm line. It is a little scratchy, but the flex is worth it. 11.5cm capped.

Levenger True Writer fountain pens have become a modern classic. We love its vibrant marbled blue with chrome trim. It is a simple cartridge/converter pen that uses standard international cartridges. This one comes with its original boxes. It is in great condition, but it is engraved with "LMD." You will write a nice fine line with its steel nib.

A light-walnut brown leather, this 4-pen roll is extremely soft and supple to the touch. It shows some wear but it is so amazing to touch. The interior is likely a grey nylon fabric with slots big enough to hold a Montblanc 146, maybe even a 149, but that seems as if it would push the boundaries of the slots. Also inside is an unsecured pocket, and a very small zippered pocket for securing ink cartridges or rollerball refills. 18.8cm long.

Kaweco pen fans might really love this short Kaweco-sized Kaweco Pen Pouch. Gently used, its black leather doesn't show very much wear. The bright golden logo is a nice touch. It is designed to hold up to 3 Kaweco Sport sized pens. 10.5cm long.

With a design inspired by a zeppelin, the Giuliano Mazzuoli Nobile Italia commemorates a failed 1928 crossing of the North Pole by blimp. Italian general Umberto Nobile attempted to fly the airship Nobile over the North Pole on a second flight following his successful effort to do so a few years earlier. Unfortunately, the Italia crashed, but luckily everyone on board survived and was rescued. This ballpoint pen is in excellent condition showing minimal wear. It comes with a working Parker-style refill in black. Unscrew the nose cone to replace the refill. Twist the blind cap in the tail to advance and retract the refill. 12.4cm.

Shimmering blue-green luster makes for a brilliant Kaweco Art Sport fountain pen known as "metallic turquoise." Our preowned pen is also like new and/or new old stock. If it was used, it was only used once or twice. It looks stunning. These are limited edition pens no longer in production. You only fill it with short standard international cartridges. The neat thing about this steel nib is that is can be unscrewed and replaced with other point sizes from Kaweco. Kinda like old Esterbrooks or modern Pelikan, even though it won't fit their nibs. You will write an extra-fine line with this one. Minimal, if any, wear. 10.1cm capped.
