Fountain pen custom 743 Waverley (WA) [black] axis FKK3000RBWA (japan import)

The pen writes beautifully, and was definitely worth the price, it did take a little longer than normal to ink using a cartridge but I think that had more to do with the cartridge than the pen itself, once it was inked I tried the pen at various angles and it worked flawlessly. On a negative note, when the pen arrived I was a little taken aback to see that the pen was outside of the case, my first assumption was that perhaps it had slipped out during shipping, but after removing the wrapping I found that that only way this could have happened was for it to have been physically taken out of the box. Fortunately Amazon boxed this item instead of putting it in one of their bubble wrap envelopes so it did make the journey unscathed, if you plan to order, it may be wise to add some delivery instructions to help ensure your pen doesn't get damaged.

垂直でもスラスラ書ける。寝かせると滑るように細いままの線が書ける。書記角度がシビアな他の万年筆とは別の筆記具とすら感じる。 ボールペン使いが、万年筆を使うと滑らかに書けるペン角度が寝ていることに戸惑い、ペンの持ち方を矯正してようやく使える。フォルカンなどは特にシビアで特定の角度でなければまともな線が引けない。 ウェーバリーは垂直でもスラスラ書ける。どんな角度でも書ける。どの方向にペンを動かしてもスラスラ書ける。ボールペンと同じようにペンを動かしてもスラスラ書けるウェーバリーは、万年筆が初めての人に最適なペンです。 反面ペン先は硬いので、柔らかいニブやフォルカン、エラボーなどの特殊ペン先のような線の変化は出しにくいですが、寝かせても書けるボールペンのような書き心地です。ボールンより抵抗なく筆圧ゼロで書けます。

Quick delivery, and a very, very nice pen. The Waverley nib has an interesting, unusual shape, and is very nice and smooth (line width is approximately fine-medium). The pen also feels solid, luxurious, and has an excellent fit and finish. Great product by Pilot!

Great pen. the con70 hold a lot of ink Nib smooth out of the box. But that has been my general experience with pilots at all price points. Waverlys are great for note taking. Very smooth nib.

今回、自分へのご褒美として少し奮発して７４３を購入することにした。 もちろんWAを選択したのは、以前よりWAは書きやすいといろいろと評価が 良かったので選択。ペン先の見た目は、よく見ると、ちょっと反り気味で可愛い。 書き味は紙の上を滑るように書けるので、お気に入りの一本になってしまった。 私の感想： このカスタム７４３・WAは、舶来のどんな高級万年筆にも負けてないと思う（笑）
