Faber-Castell Fresh fountain pen review

A new, very affordable fountain pen from Faber-Castell, the Faber-Castell Fresh is an odd-looking fountain pen, but it is a very good writer.

The Faber-Castell Fresh appears to be a direct competitor to the Lamy Safari, particularly in its design style, however, the Faber-Castell Fresh takes standard international ink cartridges and converters, unlike the Lamy Safari with its proprietary Lamy ink cartridges/converter!

The Faber-Castell Fresh fountain pen comes in black, blue, red and green colour variants. The nibs only appear to be offered in the one size - medium - which is (in true Faber-Castell style) more of a medium-fine nib, when you consider that this is a German i.e. European manufacturer.

The Faber-Castell Fresh fountain pen has another direct competitor in the Platinum Prefounte, which has quite similar feedback from the nib when writing.

Overall, I think that the Faber-Castell Fresh fountain pen is an excellent, affordable starter fountain pen, but it does have the two aforementioned close rivals.
