About TWSBI:
TWSBI 三文堂 (San Wen Tong) is one of our earliest collection even before the store. TWSBI started as an OEM manufacturer for different western brands, and around 2009, they decided to start their own brand. With 50 years of experience in pen making, they took to fountain pen forums and gather users’ feedback. It was said that Pelican M800 was the model they were inspired. Most of their pens are transparent, so it’s really fun to see the ink color and it lasts for a very long time.
The name 三文堂 (San Wen Tong) comes from the Hall of the Three Rare Treasures, created by Emperor Qianlong as a memorial to three great masterpieces of Chinese calligraphy. The initials of the name “San Wen Tong” was reversed and thus turned into "TWS". The last letters "Bi" was added with its literal meaning of "writing instruments" in Chinese. Thus combining the two segments, creating TWSBI.
First fountain pen (though I’ve used nibs in college). Dangerous interest… I’m already thinkin about other nib sizes and inks. So dang smooth (got the broad nib) - feels great in my hand.
I had a great experience going there. Loved my fountain pens and the helpful staff.
My first TWSBI Eco was a broad nib because I like a juicy pen and was figuring out what works as a new fountain pen user. But it's too broad even for me, so I wanted to size down. I'm not generally a fine nib person but this is perfect in fine. It's so smooth. I also love the clear body, which shows off a pretty ink perfectly.
I'm still a newbie and started with a Pilot Kakuno but I have been loving Twsbi!! It writes smoother and and is more comfortable in my hands personally.
This is my 5th TWSBI Eco Pen and the first with an extra fine nib. I love it just as much as my others with a fine, medium, broad and stub nibs. The writing is so smooth on the paper and I love how the all clear body takes on the color of the ink.
