Fountain pen PARKER IM, size F, ink cartridge.

Outstanding pen. Great look and understated style. Feels solid in the hand. Fine nib is perfect for writing clearly and precisely. Lost my first one and bought the exact same one again because I liked it so much.

Top quality as usual!

This is a good starter fountain pen for someone on your gift list or maybe yourself. Most people would choose either a Lamy Safari or a Pilot Metropolitan as the best starter pens. I think this one should be added to that list. I got the 'fine' nib based on previous experience with other fountain pens. We generally use cheaper paper in the US and wider nibs sometimes put too much ink on the paper. As a result, smearing can be a problem. So for me, I think the fine nib is best. If you have a larger handwriting, you might consider a wider nib. If you've never tried a fountain pen, you should try one. Get one like this or a cheaper one and see if you like it. I know people don't write as much on paper as they used to, but it's still a joy to receive a handwritten letter. This pen writes good for a relatively inexpensive fountain pen. The fine nib writes smoothly if faced correctly to the writing surface. As with most fountain pens, no pressure is required to write. The pen writes under its own weight. The body of the pen appears to be metal, with a generous resin area (about 2 cm) above the nib for your fingers. The cap is nicely appointed with metal band for decoration. The clip is strong and should survive many uses. The pen weighs 28 grams (little less than 1 ounce) when posted and feels well-balanced when writing. The cap snaps in place and does prevent the nib from drying between writing sessions. I did buy the Parker Pen Ink Converter so I can use bottled ink, rather than cartridges. The ink feed is good but ink flow may be a bit too generous immediately after filling. This may cause writing to appear darker after filling than before. Flow stabilizes after several sentences. All in all, this is a good pen for the price. It should provide many years of service. I recommend it.

I own a dozen or so fountains and. I was reading some of the bad reviews. I am honestly not sure if I got lucky or perhaps a few are just not accostomed to continuous use of a fountain pen. I've had mine for several months now. And to date even after leaving it for 2 to 3 weeks without use but stored properly it writes from the first stroke everytime. The nib is smooth no scratchy strokes at all. Flow is very good, even and dependable. For the price it's an great fountain pen and I'm happy I decided to add it to my collection.

I was surprised by how much heavier this pen was than the Parker Jotter I recently lost. Compared to the medium nib on the Jotter, I really like the fine nib on this pen. It writes nicely. I would definitely get this one again.

Such a disappointment! In fact, it is not possible to use this pen, it seems the ink does not go through properly, it dries up all the time when you close the pen and one needs to moisture the top with the wet tissue, to make it write again.

This pen is very comfortable and easy to use. Nice lines.

Love Parker pens!!

Caneta linda, resistente e confortável além da linha ser fina e firme Qualidade impecável

細かいペン先と書いてありますが、太かったです、それと、納期について、嘘ばかり、発想に問題あり、 海外からの発想でしたが、海外の場合注意します。

La pluma es bonita y escribe genial. El cartucho largo Parker de tinta es imposible de introducirlo en el plumin. He tenido que recurrir a uno corto de otra marca. Los cartuchos largos de Parker no me gustan nada, imposibles de introducir.

it's a gift for my husband. He loves the pen. Fancy looking and writes smoothly

My girlfriend got it as a B-day present. She likes it a lot and uses it ever day.
