A reliable and functional fountain pen that I take with me everywhere. I chose the fine nib.
Positive points: the flow is constant and the pen is very easy to clean.
Negative point: the transparent cap keeps ink traces even after cleaning.
Conclusion: I am satisfied with my purchase.
Dat TWSBI hele fijne vulpennen maakt, hoef ik niet meer te melden.
Belangrijk vind ik de (Online) winkel waar ik die heb gekocht:
Appelboom is werkelijk een prima adres!
On begining, I wanted the transparent/demonstrator pen. So I came across this pen here at Appelboom and decided to get it. Pen is awesome - fits in my hand perfectly and writes with just right amout of feedback I do like great deal (considering it is fine steel nib). I use it daily at work for making short or medium long notes on crappy paper. It hase nice design -real demonstrator - one can see everything what is happening iniside of the pen. I would recommend this pen to everyone who even starts in fountain pen hobby.
Also my first purchase at Appelboom was flawles! (nice touch with cookies in Apelbooms package ;-) )
I am very happy with the purchase!
I thought I liked the ECO and ECO-T a lot already but once I got this Diamond 580, I knew there was no turning back! This pen is so beautiful and writes ever so smoothly. Definitely worth the step up :)
It has a cool design, very modern cool looking.
When buying it, it comes in a box containing a wrench and a bottle of liquid silicon,
I got myself the medium nib which writes very smooth. I definitely recommend it. Well worth the price.
Everything can be loved here: a beautiful look that's at the same time traditional and modern, a nib that slides on the paper (I tested it on Tomoegawa paper), great materials: it's a pleasure to use it. I recommend it highly !
