Fountain Pens (seen on @kelsplans_)

I often get questions about the fountain pens I post on my social media page, so I thought I would link them all here in case you all want to check them out:
Jinhao 82 <M> - I purchased this one from Amazon for $9 and it is a dupe for the sailor pro gear slim. It's a great pen to try if you want to see if you would like to eventually buy a sailor, or if you just like the style of the pen.
Asvine V126 <EF> - The design that I have is unavailable now, but I've linked the pen in a different color. This pen is the only vacuum filling fountain pen I own, and it is quite easy to fill with bottled ink and to switch out the nibs if you want to. Just keep in mind that this nib is more broad than the other fountain pens I own. I've tried a shimmer ink in this pen and it wrote just fine. No issue with the pen clogging.
TWSBI Eco (Serpentine) <F> - This one is hard to find, but is still available at some retailers. A couple times a year TWSBI releases these limited edition designs and I here for it.! You should still be able to find this one.
TWSBI Eco (Creme with Rosegold) <EF> - This one is another limited edition fountain pen that may be hard to find in certain nib sizes, but is well worth the hunt (in the link provided it is available in the medium, broad and stub nib sizes).
Esterbrook Estie <F> - This is my most recent fountain pen purchase and I am absolutely in love. This pen is has a steel nib, but it writes so incredibly smooth. I also love that you can change the nib on this pen. If you want to invest in a great pen (with a gorgeous tortoise design) you should definitely check this one out.
Sailor Pro Gear Slim (Chestnut) <M> - This one is limited edition so it may be hard to find, but this is one of my favorite fountain pens.
Sailor Pro Gear Slim (Manju) <MF> - This one is also limited edition, and was a part of the Japanese Sweets collection. If you can find this one, it is a gem.
Some other pens that are not in this picture, but I would definitely recommend are the Pilot Kakunos. They come in basic colors as well as neutral limited editions colors (which are my favorites). They are super cute and write so smoothly. The Extra Fine nib is my least favorite nib size, but the Fine and Medium nibs are chef's kiss in my opinion!
Can you guys tell that I really like limited edition items?! Haha! Happy writing! xx
