Edison Menlo Draw Filler
A whole new filling system available from the Edison Pen Company! I had the pleasure of catching up with Brian and Andrea Gray at the 2017 DC Pen Supershow and Brian lent me this clear Menlo with their new Draw Filler. At 2.0 millilitres of ink, it has a solid ink capacity, and it’s a fun system to use. Please note that the mechanism is black anodized aluminum, not plastic (I was a bit unclear in the video).

This beautiful pen was sent to me by John, which is clearly an incredible generous gesture. I love this pen: the weight, size, and feeling of it are magnificent and it writes just beautifully too. I have also done a full review of this pen.
Lingmo Lorelei Fountain Pen Review
This pen was kindly sent to me by my friend Bill. I was excited to be able to review this pen, as I received a lot of requests for this one… Clearly, this pen is rather strongly inspired by the Sailor 1911 Standard fountain pen.
