Artistry Collection - Scrivi Pens

I have been buying fountain pens for a few years now. I am a writer who still hand writes their bulk of their material and that's a lot. I sometimes write up to 50 or so pages in a day so I know fountain pens. I was blown away by this pen. It's heavy enough that you know it's quality. I love the neat look of the extra fine nib. The ink flows perfectly without blotting or having to restart the flow. It writes so smoothly. Honestly, it makes me want to write more . The price is a steal. This is quality and value. Glad to have purchased. Will be looking for more from this company.

I have a couple of other Wordsworth and Black fountain pens that I am happy with, so I thought I would give this one a try. I ordered this one in EF and it writes beautifully! I will ask for the same in black for Christmas so that I have a blue and black pen and don't have to change cartridges. For less than $25, this is a great value!!! It feels great in my hand and writes clear and smooth with no skips from just the first few strokes after putting in the blue ink cartridge. The ink cartridges included as a little thinner than the barrel, so they are easy to insert and you can hear (and feel) the click when it seats correctly. It took some pressure to insert the cartridge, but not an unusual amount. The description and one photo are inaccurate. The description says it comes with 5 ink cartridges. One photo shows the whole package and says 3 ink cartridges and points to the box of ink cartridges. Look closer at the photo and the box clearly says on it "2 PCS" - 2 cartridges. You do indeed receive the box as shown with only 2 ink cartridges. Mine came with one black and one blue cartridge. I ordered a larger box of ink cartridges in the past from Wordsworth and Black, so not a big deal for me, but it does only come with 2. My 5 stars is based on the review of the pen, not the wrong number of ink cartridges sent.

The pen was great, great weight to it and the medium tip wrote great. Only down side and couldn't give that last star, I hadn't even had it maybe 3 weeks and the screw on top that encloses the ink cartridge broke and no longer tightens and when taking the pen cap off it pulls the whole bottom of the pen with it.

Very smooth, nice weight and balance. I've grown to prefer it over a Mont Blanc especially for sketching

Beautiful pen that eliminates any frustration w/ using a fountain pen. My experience is limited w/ these pens but I do love to write & this pen makes writing such a joy: very smooth writing and I’m so glad I bought it. The price point was spot on- in fact inexpensive for a fine pen!

This pen writes nicely and feels good in my hand but the line it puts down is closer to what I get with my medium nib pens than what I would expect from an extra fine nib.

UPDATE: absolutely the best customer service I’ve had in years. Without hesitation, they are sending me a new pen as I couldn’t get the ink to flow in yhe one I bought-after trying everything. If you like fountain pens, get one from Wordsworth and Black. They actually do the right thing in customer care.! I purchased this product in August, received it August 18. Been trying to use it ever since, I just can’t get the ink to flow. I dip it in water, I clean it out, over and over. It’s very frustrating. I am a sketch artist and use multiple fountain pens as to not have to change nibs constantly. Anyway, I really hate that this doesn’t work effectively. I really don’t know what to do with it. I mean if the ink doesn’t flow then what good is it really.

I really like this pen, moves smoothly across the paper. It fits fairly well in my large hands and feels nice and solid. This is the second one of these pens that I have purchased, one with a fine nib, for writing and this one with an extra-fine nib for drawing. I love them both. These pens are a great value for the money, and a great way to get into fountain pens. UPDATE: The black nib doesn’t work very well, if you haven’t used it in a day then you have to dip it in water to get the ink flowing. I’ve cleaned it, tried different brands of ink cartridges, etc. all with the same result. My blue pen with the chrome nib works perfectly, just the black nib is an issue.
