GC QUILL Fountain Pen Set – Fine Nib with 12 Ink Cartridges and Ink Refill Converter, Pen Gift Set for Writing Journaling Calligraphy– MU-12

This is an absolute steal. Great everyday fountain pen that comes with two effective bold ink colors. A pen this inexpensive has no right to write this well. It looks nice and performs! Great for writing in cards for friends or even penning a letter to someone special. Also includes the contraption you need to use other inks that don't come in the cartridges. It worked as intended as well. Care for it as you would any other fountain pen and it may be the only one you need. Love this pen.

I am a pen enthusiast and collect all kinds of pens, but fountain pens ate my favorite. This pen while being inexpensive, performs as well as my more expensive ones. It feels good in my hand not heavy, the ink flows nicely, and it writes smoothly. I like the color scheme and that it comes with a case.

The media could not be loaded. The quality of this fountain pen far exceeds that of some of my higher end pens. The presentation is elegant and beautifully minimal. Most of my fountain pens came in huge boxes that take up a lot of space.This particular fountain pen not only arrived in a nice and simple box, but the lid has a lovely magnetic closure.With regards to the pen itself, I'm thoroughly impressed! I ordered this pen because I got tired of losing my pricier pens. This pen certainly offers a lot for the price. I was also drawn to the color combination of this pen. Orange and grey is beautiful together, and rather elegant. I'm loving this dark matte gunmetal grey, but the orange is a but more subdued and "rusty" than what I see online. This is the only reason why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. I may have to just get used to it.Although I prefer to ink my own pens, I used one of the included cartridges to try this pen out upon arrival.It wrote immediately without any kind of coaxing, nib grinding, or tine adjustment. I'm seriously impressed. I have a decent collection of higher end fountain pens, and 95% of them needed an initial feed flush before use.This $9-$10 pen knows how to please!!! It's a bit too good to be true.The slightly magnetic cap has a very satisfying click when opening and closing, and it fits so comfortably in my hand.The weight is perfect, and it seems balanced capped and uncapped.It comes with 6 blue and 6 black ink cartridges, which is far more generous than most manufacturers and sellers. The quality of the ink is really nice and rich.This pen also comes with a very decent converter, should you fancy using your own ink!I would love to find an ink that matches the orange on this pen. It would definitely elevate the writing experience.This is a very giftable pen.I hate losing my fountain pens, so I thought losing this would sting a bit less. I was wrong. I would hate to lose this little $10 baby!!I highly recommend this pen.

I bought this a little bit ago and it is by far the best fountain pen I own. I don’t own any that are super expensive but this is both the cheapest and nicest one I have. It writes very smoothly and consistently. It’s a bit heavier than expected but has a really nice feel. All together, an amazing pen.

I was so excited for these pens and was left disappointed. The ink did not disperse evenly and would t even work half the time. Perhaps I place the cartridges in incorrectly but I wouldn’t know as there were no directions. I even googled the brand looking for directions and came up empty handed. Do not recommend.

It works perfect for what I need.

It writes smoothly. Heafty weight on it... quality pen. Will review again after few days of using it.3-7-2024:I got no negative comment about this pen. I love it first time I used it and still loving it up to this day. It works as daily use as a nurse. This is my very first fountain pen and I am a lefty. Not a problem.

Packaged Securely! The weight is perfect! Came with Six Black Cartridges and Six Blue Cartridges, as well as the refillable Converter. The pen was Very easy to assemble and begin using. After giving it a week of on and off use, it seems to have an issue with "getting the ink to paper." I had initially thought it was the type of paper i was using, but tried various types. I double checked the cartridge was securely installed, but no change. It will write with "force" (adding a little pressure when writing) which narrows it down to the Nib being the issue. I have attempted to search for replacement nibs but when searching the brand name "GC Quill" different pens show up, this one only seems to appear here on Amazon. Now lightly dismissing the nib issue, my only real complaint is more of personal preference, the "grip" is very narrow and smooth metal which makes it harder to comfortably hold. Hopefully you'll decide to give this one a try as mine my just be a quality control issue with the previously stated Nib. And i hope i can find replacement nibs! Happy Shopping!
