I received in bad condition. But the Writing quality is good.

Purchased for a Dryden fountain pen; the ink is great. Cartridges easy to install, the pen writes fabulously.

Buen material, un poco grande de medida para algunas plumas.

Excellent produit, ne coule pas, ne tâche pas. Très facile à utiliser.

I'm a serious user of fountain pens and a casual collector of them. I use fountain pens when I have to do any prolonged writing because they're easier on my arthritic hands than other pen types. I ordered the Dryden Luxury Bamboo Fountain Pen because I wanted a handsome, but different looking, pen under $50. So far, I've been well pleased with it. The packaging is very professional, with the pen held inside a finished wooden case. The pen comes without ink but with an ink converter inside the pen's barrel. Pen barrel and cap have the bamboo finish as shown. The threads holding the section (with nib and ink feed) work smoothly with no binding. The converter also worked smoothly when I loaded it with ink. (I used Noodler's Bernake Blue.) Even with the cap posted, this pen is light in the hand and nicely balanced, and frankly writes better than I expected. The medium nib lays down a smooth line of ink. I experienced no skips even when I deliberately tried to force skips by writing as fast as I could. Lower-price pens (I don't own any expensive ones) can skip in this situation because the ink feed can't keep up with demand. The Dryden bamboo pen still worked great in that situation--no skips at all. To sum it up, this is a great-looking pen that will get compliments and writes as well as it looks. This pen is well worth the money.

I have owned fountain pens many years ago and have loved writing with them. In the past I had had difficulty with ink on my hands. This pen is made like no other. The design is beautiful. I have not had any ink on me. Writing is smooth and without difficulty. Changing the ink cartridge is easy and ink spill free. I was skeptical at first and not sure I wanted to pay the price. I am so glad I bought it. I would not buy any other brand. Before purchasing I read reviews on many pens before deciding on this brand and the rosewood color. So very happy with it. Not one complaint.
