I bought this Endless Phantom Retractable Fountain Pen in EF nib using a Kickstarter campaign, and I was the 17th one when the orders opened. Check it out!
Endless is a brand from Madras (now Chennai) in India. They create Journals and pen cases along with a lot of inks and sometimes fountain pens. This is their second or third pen, and this was on Kickstarter with people supporting them with overflowing orders. I, too, was really excited to order one for myself.
I really love the design of the pen; the glossy black body looks great. The pen has a perfect weight and balance in your hands. The nib comes out nicely from its shell. The mechanism can take both cartridges and comes packed with an ink converter. I also got Alchemy Candy Sea Ink as part of the initial Kickstarter campaign orders. The packaging of Endless Stationery products is always supreme. I really love their innovative design of the packaging and the products. Be it an ink bottle and its cork stand, and the same was seen for this pen that came in a cork case, which can also work as a pen stand or display.
My choice of nib was EF (Extra fine), but as and when I filled the ink into the pen, though it writes very thin but the scratch noise is there. It's not as smooth as you will find in the pens from Pilot and Platinum in EF nib. Also, I feel the nib is not getting enough support from the grip section, and it feels like it can break if I push it harder. I am a very soft writer as I don't put pressure on any nib much, but still, I am not confident about the EF nib on this one. Once the other people who have ordered EF nibs get theirs, then the reviews will start pouring in, and I was in the second lot of orders, which were dispatched to an Indian address.
Let me know what your experience with the pen is.
