Many other inks end up looking like dark sludge on the paper. Most Herbin inks retain a vibrant colour and look great.

Yes size matters. I find the Pocket a little too big and the Dinkey just nice. When capping the pen, there is a silent click that tells you that you cannot tighten anymore. That’s a good design consideration.
Love the rainbow colours.
My nick pick is that it is not very secure when you post the cap.

This fountain pen is tiny but sturdy. The one I got is aluminium so it’s very light. I love the design. My only nick pick is that when screwing the cap on, you can hear/feel metal on metal friction. I am ok with that but some people may not like that.
All in all I’m happy with this buy.

I am pleasantly surprised by this pen. I’ve read good reviews of this pen so decided to try it with the Delrin material. I was not disappointed. It is light but well balanced. It is comfortable to write with since it is thicker at the area where you hold the pen.
It is fast becoming one of my go-to pens!

Great Pen, happy to have it. Feel in the hand is good, also the roller cartrige with the ink draws nicely. Would recommend.

The handwritten note that came with the pen from the owner was a pleasant surprise. Doesn´t happen too much these days.

This pen is absolutely fantastic. If you are a fan of wet broad nibs, don’t pass up on trying this one. It lays down a solid line of ink and feels like writing on a smooth cushion. Love it! Thank you Emy!

These days, we have automatic core ejection pens and titanium aluminum stainless steel, but... It feels like a sensitive pen when I was young decades ago, with its plastic, clean design and weight. It has a good knock and decent grip. My dozens of mechanical pencils are mostly made in Japan or Germany, but I've never used this before in Sweden, and I really like it.

This pen is hands down, in terms of writing, quality of material and manufacturing skills. I really enjoy writing with this pen and highly recommend it. Also, Pen Venture sent me this pen in no time and really appreciate and admire Pen Venture’s customer service. Thank you.

I was very impressed to find the 100 ml Herbin inks at these very competitive prices. Very gladto have them. The bottles were despatched the same day I ordered them, and reached me three days later - better than the British postal system sometimes achieves.

Gravitas Pocket. A great little pen. Simply magnificent. And esplendid service from Pen-Venture. Very, very satisfied.

I am very impressed with the engineering tolerances, the look and feel of the pen, and how smooth the nib is. I agree that this is the wettest nib that I own. That means that I will have to adjust to longer drying times. This may become one of the few pens that I always keep inked.

Great calendar from Diamine! The parcel arrived quickly and I'm also very happy with the store.

Repeat Gravitas customer here so I knew exactly what I was getting. A very well-engineered, well-built, well-balanced, well-tuned pen that scores high on function and originality while punching ludicrously above its weight class in price (especially at 40% off during the Black Friday sale). Cool filling mechanism, great materials, lovely polished ultem that looks great and feels great... and just a pen that will just flat out work, each and every time. It's not the best looking pen in my collection. It's not the best writing pen either, nor does it have the highest ink capacity or the most sturdy build... but it scores at least a seven or eight out of 10 on all those counts. It's kind of like a really good checking centre (hockey speak) who can win key face-offs, play defence against the opposing team's top line, throw big checks, kill penalties and score the odd goal. It gave me no surprises, and that's exactly what I wanted. The plastic on metal threads does make me grimace a bit and would it kill Ben to give us a clip? But those small grumbles aside, really a fantastic pen at a fantastic price, and a worthy addition to most people's collections, large or small. Shout out to Emy and his team too for getting this to my door in good time despite the huge Black Friday traffic. Appreciate you guys!

I had an eye on Sailor Pro Gear for a very long time, but it was simply too expensive for me to be able to justify the purchase. But when it came on 'FP day' sale, I finally gave in and splurged ;). I don't regret the purchase a single bit.

It's a wonderful writer - even though the nib makes slightly finer lines, than typical European mediums (as is usually the case with Japanese nibs), it is very juicy, slightly soft (no line variation, but it bounces a bit) and gives delightful feedback.

The pen is very nicely built, and even though it's made of a plain black plastic, it looks classy and elegant. It's on a shorter side, but since I have small hands, I can still use it comfortably, even without posting. But those with larger hands will probably need to post the pen to use it comfortably.

I received the pen very fast, especially considering the volume of orders on FP day. I can highly recommend the shop, and will probably order here again, once my wallet recovers :)

Really nice pen with amazing quality. Very good balancing. Quick delivery. Waiting for new Gravitas models.
