プラチナ萬年筆　PLUTINUM Platinum Fountain Pen, Black Body (DPQ-700A#1)

This is a lovely pen for both sketching and writing, the ink flows really well too. Lightweight and has a very fine nib which is great for drawing fine lines and cross hatching.

This is a reliably good pen, a lovely fine line and the new lid is an improvement as it clicks on. I use with Platinum Carbon cartridges which last for ages. The only problem is that the lid doesn't go on the top of the pen when you use it, so can easily get lost. I use it for urban sketching not writing.

This fountain pen feels well balanced in your hand without being too heavy as some fountains could be. It takes cartridges, like the one supplied, and it can be fitted with a refillable ink cartridge/ dispenser. The nib is quite fine, writes smoothly and does not blot ink drops everywhere. It writes perfectlybeverytime I use it. Great for writing and drawing for line and wash. Best one I have ever tried.

Typically good quality from Platinum at a good price. Great for sketching and drawing but pretty useless as a writing tool in this fine nib size. Not so sure it would be much better in a medium or broad but it was bought for sketching and drawing so... job done!

top quality

Brought this fountain pen to replace the pen on my late Dad’s Marble Desk Centre Piece and Calendar. It writes extremely well, looks good and great value for money

I have used the original Platinum desk pens to draw with for years. This new version is not a patch on the old: uncomfortable and not a joy to use. I have abandoned it.

It's comfortable to hold..I love writing with it

Kalem asla bir masa üstü kalemi olamaz. Belirtilmemiş ama muhtemelen Ultra EF . Resmen TR kağıdı bile yırtıyor.

Très bonne surprise. Pour un stylo à 10€ il est vraiment très bien. Pour l'écriture il est un peu raide, mais ce n'est pas dérangeant parce qu'il a par ailleurs un bon débit d'encre donc la plume n'accroche pas. Pour le dessin, la raideur de la plume est là un plus qui est très agréable à l'usage. J'ai une plume de la même marque qui m'a coûté 5 fois plus cher, qui est beaucoup plus souple et plus douce, mais je préfère celle-ci pour le dessin. En revanche, j'ai eu de léger soucis de débit d'encre en croquis, il faut parfois arrêter quelques secondes de dessiner pour laisser la plume se gorger d'encre à nouveau. Pour finir, j'ai apprécié la finesse de la plume, beaucoup plus fin que ce qu'on peut trouver chez Lamy ou Waterman. Ajoutons que le design est sympa, ça tient bien en main, bref, une très bonne plume, et à un super tarif.

I got my first Platinum pen about 30 years ago when I was in Tokyo and they have been my favourites since that time. The nibs on these pens are different from the Carbon Ink pen and are equally pleasing. In contrast to the Carbon Ink pen, the body of the pen is a little wider and the cap more robust. These are primarily desk pens, not really designed for fitting in a pocket due to their length of almost 7.5". I equipped mine with refillable cartridges for the sake of economy though cartridges are available. They write very smoothly for a pen at this price point. I recommend this pen for not-absolute-beginners because the nib is fine and the balance is different due to the shape and length. These (I have 2) are better than my Lamy Safari and much more budget conscious.

Light weight
