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.
I was between the Eco Clear and this Glow-in-the-Dark but after some use, I think I made the right choice! I thought it would be a bit gimmicky but this pen really glows! This pen is easily identifiable in my black hole of a bag because of its glow! It's funny because I didn't intend to use it this way.
Overall the pen is great and I love how much ink it can hold. It is super easy to clean and it even comes with a lubricant for the piston! I don't mind using the pen posted but it does add a bit of weight for long journalling sessions. Overall, I love this pen! I use it daily and I'm currently trying to convince myself not the buy another Eco in a different color.
In my opinion, Twsbi has presented fountain pen users with a great idea for fountain pen, glowing in the dark.
The color is spot on in both light and darkness.
As always, the quality is grand.
I highly recommend this fountain pen and this seller.
