TWSBI Swipe Fountain Pen (Salmon)
TWSBI Swipe Fountain Pen (Salmon)
With the new Swipe, TWSBI has finally released a traditional cartridge/converter fountain pen. Available in Smoke (Translucent Grey), Prussian Blue, Salmon (Orange), and Pear (Green).
Each pen comes with an ink cartridge, traditional converter, and a spring converter, so that you’re ready to write immediately, whether you use cartridges or bottled ink.
Cartridges/Converter are standard international sizing. Available nib sizes include EF, F, M, B, and 1.1 stub. The TWSBI Swipe is designed to allow you to post the cap.
A Quick Guide to TWSBI Nib Sizes, per the Manufacturer:
If you write small, go with an EF
For the normal writer, F is the most popular
If you tend to lean on a bigger font, M will be perfect
B is for statements!! Sign a check in B, write a header in B, do some coloring/shading in B
Stub nibs are italic in writing style (have a special card or invitation to write?)
