## Description

Color : Black

Review: Ein wenigstens etwas außergewöhnlicher Halter… - Der Füllfederhalter sticht aus der Masse etwas hervor, weil er über eine (für moderne Verhältnisse) besonders bewegliche Feder verfügt. Hierdurch entsteht - gut dosierbar - eine schöne Variation der Linienstärke im Schriftbild. Das Schriftbild kann dadurch interessanter werden - wenn man sich dabei auch etwas Mühe gibt. Da die Feder ohne Druck sehr fein schreibt (auch toll), bleibt es nicht aus das man das Papier gut spürt. Ich nenne das „Feedback“, und erfreue mich daran. Andere sagen dazu möglicherweise „kratzig“, und mögen das nicht.Eindeutig eine Frage der persönlichen Vorliebe. Der Händler (Stilo&Stile) ist ein renommierter Händler aus Rom, der lagernde Ware regelmäßig zügig und zuverlässig versendet ( mehrfach getestet ). Bei mir hat das jetzt von der Bestellung bis Erhalt 2 Tage gedauert - klasse also.
Review: Really gloriously smooth, EF, and super soft flexible pen. - The pen body is the most ergonomic of all Pilots I own. It has the nicest fit and finish. Many people have troubles with the FA nib, so I had immediate remorse after ordering it and tried to cancel. Fate deigned that I was to have it anyway, and my request didn't go through. I'm glad, because it has become my favourite pen among my 10 premium pens. It writes EF with no pressure, F with just a little, and of course has dramatic flex. I haven't had the hard-starting issues many people claim. I can only offer a few guesses to help people who might be interested in this pen still. 1. Don't use the con-70. I have used con-70 to success with PO nib, and to dramatic failure with Stub, I didn't even bother using it for the FA. Just use a con-50. 2. Don't draw those silly loops to demo the flex. You will probably go too fast, too hard, and get railroading and miss-align the tines. 3. Just write in your normal style, and press a little on the down strokes. You will get plenty of contrast in the line weight. Normal writing is much less demanding than those loops FP users like to make, and will be much gentler on the FA nibs very delicate tines. One of the reasons this has become my favourite pen is that it writes EF but is incredibly smooth, just just for EF but it is absolutely smooth. Even if I didn't care about flex, that alone would make it rank up with my favourites, including the PO nib (which is also very smooth, but is more like a technical pen in its consistency). This pen has a very bad reputation, but none of the issues about ink flow, hard starting or railroading have befallen me. I write fairly small, and I'm very pleased with the effect I can get. It is much, much softer than the Falcon/Elabo Pilot makes, which although a remarkably light pen, I find the Elabo really hurts my fingers if I use the flex too much. I have no such problem from the FA.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I wish to purchase this nib and I already have the pen with a different nib.  Is there a any way I can purchase the nib only (soft fine)?**
A: No.  This is an issue with ALL Japanese pens.
The manufacturers do NOT make spare parts
available, with ONE exception.  You can get 
spare nib units for the Pilot Vanishing Point/Decimo.

**Q: Can someone explain the difference between a pilot 742 and 743? Thank you.**
A: They are very similar pens; both use a CON-70 converter. The 743 is the larger of the two, using a Pilot #15 nib, while the 742 is slightly smaller and uses a Pilot #10 nib.

**Q: Would someone mind to show me a comparison between fine medium and medium nibs on standard (7mm)lined paper notebook? i do not know which one to buy.**
A: Search for Pilot nib sizes on youtube or google.

**Q: I only see 6 nibs in this listing and not 14. do you carry the wa (waverly) nib? i don't see it listed.**
A: There are 13 nibs listed with this pen now.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Postage and Amazing Pen!
*by G***G on 15 January 2015*

Amazing pen and resonable response on delivery! Took around 3 weeks, but that is because i ordered this pen just before the christmas and new years holiday. Overall i am happy with the parcel which was secure and strong cardboard, and the pen is wonderful, writes and performs perfectly!
