Pelikan Graphos Technical Fountain Pen: Weird but Useful?

Jonathan Weinberg of Drawing with Fountain Pens reviews and draws with the Pelikan Graphos Technical Pen, which was originally developed in the 1930s and was continued to be used through the 1980s by architects, engineers and calligraphers. Its peculiar nibs were particular designed to be used with a ruler and compass for drafting. It was also sold by Rotring and Markant. He discusses the over 60 different nibs available for the pen and the very strange way it works. Finally he uses one of the A6 nibs to draw some dahlias. The video features music composed for the drawing section by Tyler Fallas. #fountainpens #pelikanpens #drawing #nibs #drafting #historyofwritinginstruments #tylerfallas
