Pelikan M600 Fountain Pen - Souveran Black - Medium

Wow. This is a gorgeous pen that writes wonderfully. I typically enjoy a nib with more feedback, but this balances smoothness with control so well. These nibs run VERY bold, so I'd get 1-2 sizes finer than you're typically used to.

Thought the pen had a nice wet flowy ink how I like. I did not like the scratchyness against the paper. I thought it would be smoother than it was. Over all the pen was beautiful and I wish I loved it. But unfortunately I did not.

Excellent Writer

Got one with a medium nib delivered in 4 hours as I am in Chennai. Pen felt very light and appropriate size when posted. Writing is very very smooth. Worth the price.

My First Pelikan Fountain Pen

I have always leaned towards Mont Blanc fountain pens and I have several. That said I decided to try a Pelikan M600 on advice of a friend. I ordered an M600 from Pen Boutique and I got a bottle of Pelikan ink.I will have to say, I am really impressed with the Pelikan M600 and I got the medium nib in mine. It is smooth and ink flows perfectly.When finances permit I expect I will order another M600 or maybe an M800.I would recommend the M600 to any serious fountain pen user.

Pelikan M600 - Awesome!

I own the Pelikan M100 and M400 pens. I bought the M600 to have something in the middle of the size range. This pen has a fine nib and writes buttery smooth like my other Pelikan pens. The diameter of the barrel is small enough to fit nicely in my leather journal cover A5 pen holder. It exudes quality.I owe several Montblanc Meisterstuck 149s with different nib widths. I think that the Pelikan nibs are smoother, particularly on matte card stock.

Pelikan M600 Souveran fountain pen M nib

This is my first fountain pen with a gold nib. It writes very smooth with Pelikan Edelstein tanzanite ink. The pen was easy to fill with the piston filler. The balance point of the pen when capped is just at the point where the barrel meets the cap. The weight of the pen is right for its size and matches the high quality of the brand Pelikan. It is my favorite pen!

Review of Pelikan Souverän M600 Black-Green Fountain Pen

In general, is a great pen. I don’t give it 5 stars because for me it is a bit short and doesn’t feel good in my hand when is unposted (I think I have big hands so I’m looking now for an M800). About the pen himself the pros are that looks great, very smooth piston filler, good ink capacity, gorgeous nib, the only con is that in my opinion, I found it a bit dry (compared to my Twisbies and Pelikan M200). I was expecting a very wet and comfortable pen (like M200 but bigger and without the flex nib, just for daily writing) and with a smooth writing experience (like my old Parker 51) and was not (pleasant anyway but not what I thought. Maybe with some time and use it would change). Do I like the pen?, yes… as much as I thought?, no (that’s why I give it 4 stars)

Smooth and Classy

This pen is very light (I normally like slightly heavier ones). Got a medium nib equivalent to the broad of other Japanese brands I have. Writes great with a smooth navigation across the paper. precious one in my collection.

Sublime

This then, the Pelikan M600 in black & red stripe, lying in the mid range of this premium quality series.It does not fail on any level - aesthetics, form & function (Bauhaus) - smooth writing experience, & with a generous ink capacity in the barrel, itself.The 14K bi-coloured gold nib is slightly bouncy, but not to the degree of being unmannageable; it sits well in the hand (& I have large hands). Attention to detail is superlative - gold accents, clean lines, & well balanced - I can write with this all day !!Granted, not the most inexpensive writing instrument, but then you have to consider what you're purchasing: Piston filling mechanism; 14K gold nib; unrelenting performance, & a sublime finish - what more could you ask for ? Thoroughly recommended.
