PILOT 万年筆 マンネンヒツ カスタム743

【1】

The posting nib on the Custom 743 writes an extra fine line, but is smoother and more easily controlled that the regular extra fine nib. Very pleased with this purchase.

最初は少しインクが途切れたり、かすれたりすることがありましたが、一週間ほど使い続けるとそれもなくなり、スムーズに書けるようになりました。ペン先は柔らかく、筆圧や速度の変化によって濃淡が自然に生まれます。大型のペン先がもたらす書き心地は、まさに比類なきもの。筆を走らせるたびに、その時の感情がそのまま紙の上に映し出されるようで、自由に、時には抑えながら、まるで紙の上で踊っているかのような感覚になります。静かな時間に、一人この筆と向き合うひとときは、何ものにも代えがたい贅沢。これからもずっと、私の人生に寄り添ってくれる一本です。

The pen is not so different by a Pilot Custom 742, but FA nibs are completely different upon their length: the shorter #10 on the 742 has an F-FM starting size and is a real super-flexible nib, very delicate, to use with a feather hand; this #15 is longer, starts EF and is a bit harder to flex, definitely better for those who don’t have experience. It’s more like a soft nib, but with a great snapback which closes steadily to EF the point. It is also definitely better handling the ink feeding, I have found no railroading problem.For calligraphic use, #15 can do Copperplate but is a Spencerian masterpiece, viceversa for the #10.Both nibs are wonderful, as in Pilot style.#15 can be mounted on both Custom 823 and Custom 845 Urushi (I have it now on my 823 for huge ink capacity).

This Is already the coolest nib i own, is fun to write with and great for sketching, Only fout stars because it skips some times and railroad very often. I think the feed cant keep up with te ink flow the nib demands.

Loving old school fountain pens and thoughtful and elegant writing, I wanted to try this pen which, unlike others, has an elasticity with quick return, requires a more decisive use of the hand, perhaps not exactly suitable for beginners, but an advisable object for those he already has experience and wants to improve his handwriting, and then return to truly flexible fountain pens. However, an excellent purchasing experience, although in the first few weeks of use I struggled to find the right ink and a regular flow. For this reason I do not recommend it to novices.

垂直でもスラスラ書ける。寝かせると滑るように細いままの線が書ける。書記角度がシビアな他の万年筆とは別の筆記具とすら感じる。ボールペン使いが、万年筆を使うと滑らかに書けるペン角度が寝ていることに戸惑い、ペンの持ち方を矯正してようやく使える。フォルカンなどは特にシビアで特定の角度でなければまともな線が引けない。ウェーバリーは垂直でもスラスラ書ける。どんな角度でも書ける。どの方向にペンを動かしてもスラスラ書ける。ボールペンと同じようにペンを動かしてもスラスラ書けるウェーバリーは、万年筆が初めての人に最適なペンです。反面ペン先は硬いので、柔らかいニブやフォルカン、エラボーなどの特殊ペン先のような線の変化は出しにくいですが、寝かせても書けるボールペンのような書き心地です。ボールンより抵抗なく筆圧ゼロで書けます。

fantastic

The falcon nib is good to get some variation when writing. I am practicing to improve my writing with the nib. Gives lovely flair to the script.

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.

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.

avec une plume en or aujourd'hui introuvable : souple, douce et qui ne manque jamais. Le stylo est bien étanche et ne sèche pas. La finition est impeccable. C'est mon stylo préféré ! Mais il n'est pas donné ...

Beautifully made and classic flex nib by Pilot.Writes straight out of the box, have not had any railroading with Pilot Black ink.Nib is smooth and flex is great. Not the widest flex you can get but it works so nice.

Stunning pen, but dear costing as well. Takes some time to get used to the FA nib, but with practice I am impressed with what I can do. Highly recommended.
