Back cultpens.com. Kenro has created an all-new pen: it’s resin, cartridge-converter, made in Taiwan, and featuring a steel Jowo nib plus silver- or gold-coloured trim.Yep, there’s a degree of irony to the definitive all-American pen brand now being made in Taiwan, doubly so that the brand known for its huge variety of nibs is now available only in standard F and M. And perhaps triply so that the traditional budget pen now retails for around $150.But the new “Estie” does have a trick up its sleeve: it’s available with a separate section (only in black, it seems) that is designed to accept the traditional Esterbrook screw-in nib units.

Feels something like a cursive italic.⁣ A great starting point if you're not sure if your writing is too big or too small to manage.

Well finished in all the right areas (engraving, threads, o-ring). But even leaving that aside, on its own merits the Estie is a rather nice pen.

In case you’re not up to speed: the revived Esterbrook brand was recently bought by Kenro, the US distributor of Montegrappa and Aurora. You can see the translucency of the material — which is otherwise pretty dark and not as glimmery as you might like, if spoiled by pens like the Ocean Swirl.Unscrew the section and you’ll be pleased to see an o-ring, as well as a good-sized collar for the converter.
