IM Fountain Pen, Matte Blue, Fine Nib with Blue Ink Refill (1931647)

I own a dozen or so fountains and. I was reading some of the bad reviews. I am honestly not sure if I got lucky or perhaps a few are just not accostomed to continuous use of a fountain pen. I've had mine for several months now. And to date even after leaving it for 2 to 3 weeks without use but stored properly it writes from the first stroke everytime. The nib is smooth no scratchy strokes at all. Flow is very good, even and dependable. For the price it's an great fountain pen and I'm happy I decided to add it to my collection.

This pen is very comfortable and easy to use. Nice lines.

This is a good starter fountain pen for someone on your gift list or maybe yourself. Most people would choose either a Lamy Safari or a Pilot Metropolitan as the best starter pens. I think this one should be added to that list. I got the 'fine' nib based on previous experience with other fountain pens. We generally use cheaper paper in the US and wider nibs sometimes put too much ink on the paper. As a result, smearing can be a problem. So for me, I think the fine nib is best. If you have a larger handwriting, you might consider a wider nib. If you've never tried a fountain pen, you should try one. Get one like this or a cheaper one and see if you like it. I know people don't write as much on paper as they used to, but it's still a joy to receive a handwritten letter. This pen writes good for a relatively inexpensive fountain pen. The fine nib writes smoothly if faced correctly to the writing surface. As with most fountain pens, no pressure is required to write. The pen writes under its own weight. The body of the pen appears to be metal, with a generous resin area (about 2 cm) above the nib for your fingers. The cap is nicely appointed with metal band for decoration. The clip is strong and should survive many uses. The pen weighs 28 grams (little less than 1 ounce) when posted and feels well-balanced when writing. The cap snaps in place and does prevent the nib from drying between writing sessions. I did buy the Parker Pen Ink Converter so I can use bottled ink, rather than cartridges. The ink feed is good but ink flow may be a bit too generous immediately after filling. This may cause writing to appear darker after filling than before. Flow stabilizes after several sentences. All in all, this is a good pen for the price. It should provide many years of service. I recommend it.

I was surprised by how much heavier this pen was than the Parker Jotter I recently lost. Compared to the medium nib on the Jotter, I really like the fine nib on this pen. It writes nicely. I would definitely get this one again.

Love Parker pens!!

I will say that there are a lot of reviews with the Deluxe Parker IM dictating the hard starting, drying out, and poor writing experience issues. They are all true. Albeit, I believe the Parker brand may have some magnificent pens, but for the money of an IM, not worth the hassle. After multiple emails with the manufacturer, unfortunately they were unable to help. I would not recommend this particular line to anyone, whether they are FP beginners or enthusiasts. The hole in the cap is excessively large and for the amount, I shouldn't have to fix this type of issue. Parker missed the mark and because it was my first Parker, I will not be trying any others. Pictures are attached of the culprit hole. Amazon, however, has been more than accomodating in the return.

The Pen is really fantastic 👍👍👍

Nice pen. Very beautiful. Good product!

E' una penna superba ... adatta a chi fà della bella grafia un proprio stile di vita. Ha un buon peso ed è ben bilanciata, si impugna facilmente e con essa si scrive in modo veramente piacevole. La qualità è garantita dal marchio Parker. Consiglio fortemente l'acquisto.

細かいペン先と書いてありますが、太かったです、それと、納期について、嘘ばかり、発想に問題あり、 海外からの発想でしたが、海外の場合注意します。

Un stylo élégant, de qualité, permettant de s'adonner à l'écriture avec plaisir.

it's a gift for my husband. He loves the pen. Fancy looking and writes smoothly
