Dear Ash, I really appreciate your approach to promote „good quality for money“-pieces and to invest once instead of rebuying multiple times.. we both support regional manufacturers, due to the fact that Kaweko is based in Heidelberg, where I live nearby, I’ll stick to it… I prefer german or uk-products over all the others; your work is highly regarded! 🇩🇪🇬🇧
Oh boy, just what I didn't need - another Enabler on the internet! I just ordered one of these :-) I have a number of Toms products and they are great. His Pro-Flex feed is astounding. He designed and manufactured the feed unit and it is brilliant, no railroading or ink starvation when fully flexed. Best of all, Tom is a local lad so I enjoy supporting him! Thanks for a great vid!
Whilst I’m not in the market for another pen (I already have many I don’t use!) I do like the look of this. I had a look at Tom’s website, and see that he has designed and manufactured a whole range of writing and drawing equipment - and it all looks exquisite! Great to see another British company producing well engineered items! I wish them every success!
I have a Montblanc Boheme as a pocket/travel pen. My wife bought it for my birthday in the early 2000s. It’s never worked well. Actually, it’s never worked at all. Leave it more than a day or two and it won’t write at all. I’d like another pocket pen but I’m not sure I would use it enough to allow it to work reliably
Dear Ash, it is a lovely pen. In the past i used pocket fountain pens. But now i EDC a pen pouch with "normal" length pen. At this moment i carry the Pelican M1000, K800 (Ballpoint), Montegrappa Harry Potter and the Faber Castell e-motion. I just find normal pens better than my pocket pens.
Thanks for sharing and that is a great pen at a great price like my most expensive Fisher space pen was at one point $65 and is also all metal. Unlike other futin pens that are over $100 for plastic. Edit : Oh you said Pounds my bad but still at $100 not bad price for the pen your getting.
I love pocket pens! I find they stand out from the usual tube design, even though I don't want to downplay the colors and decorations. There's a pen manufacturer in the UK - almost across the border🙃... in Edinburgh. The N2 comes with a size 6 Bock nib. It also uses O-rings, which is exactly what makes it so attractive in my view. It sets itself apart from the others. But there's another contender from the same company - the Namisu Nova Pocket. That's currently my top choice. It's also usable as an eyedropper, though I tend to hold back on that. I don't find the idea of refilling it very appealing. Taking another leap, further across the border, brings me to another very small writing instrument company-Gravitas in Ireland. They started out small but strong. The business has grown beyond what the founder expected (he admitted this himself), and you can now find these pocket pens at Pen Venture, based in Romania. Although I don't own a Gravitas pen yet, the Vac has particularly caught my attention. These might be something for you: Namisu and Gravitas. I believe these pens deliver! Glad I found you; just subscribed! By the way: Congratulations on 75k!

I love my Kaweco and use it daily, but I am not ashamed to say that this Tom's Studio pen has soundly beaten my Kaweco in all aspects of use.
Very tempted by this as a little present to myself. Thanks for making recommendations that are not commercially motivated, very rare these days 🙏👏
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Ash, I always appreciate new entries to my collection and this will be a must add. Brilliant job as usual!
My pleasure!

Entirely agree, l chose the architect nib which gives wonderful line variation. I wasn’t aware that it was an eye-dropper, thanks.

Brilliant review of a pocket pen I knew nothing about. Subscribed !
Good bit of kit, well presented and described. British company too.
Thanks Ash, I appreciated this heads up ! Cam
Thank you, that was highly informative and unbiased.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@TheChapsGuide I enjoyed it so much I went and bought one!

Ash looks like a great little traveling pen. Cheers Ron

Thank you for your research. Question: what size NutSac did you purchase?

My EDC pen is Waldmann Füller in steriling silver.
Just purchased one 👌
Hope you enjoy it!
When we 'put it together' we are posting, so we post it.

Love the pen videos!
Glad you like them!
Obviously that “outdoor table“ was indispensable today as you were doing a pen review and needed a table to lay your journals on🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Some people🤷🙄.
Can we obtain on line?
Yes
