Opus 88 Koloro Fountain Pens Reviews
Opus 88 red-red is now my favorite Opus 88. It supersedes my expectations. I am used to wide girth fountain pens, #6 nibs, and extra-fine point nibs. I was a bit worried about my latest acquisition. It arrived quickly. My belated Fountainpen Day present to myself. I love the red-red color and since I only use red inks, the slight demonstrator look is fluid. Glad I researched reviews of this fountain pen before purchasing it. The reviews were right! Really glad that I did so at penchalet.com. Has not failed me yet.

This is a very fine fountain pen for everyday use. It is an eyedropper filler which means that writers who have used cartridges or converters will have to get used to this method of refilling and how to use the pen's mechanism to start/control ink flow. But, having learned that, people should enjoy the pen's handling, grip, and overall feel. I am a fan of broad point nibs and this one does not disappoint. The nib is firm and the flow is very smooth. I also bought a medium nib as an extra to try out.The finish and colors are very contemporary and pleasing. I would rate this fountain on on a par with TWSBI's best on quality of build and even higher on materials.

I think this pen self fills while I'm sleeping, it doesn't seem to run out of ink. Writes very well. The simplicity of the pen is nice, and elegant. The classic engraving of OPUS 88 on the cap is a lovely touch. My first OPUS pen.

This is a nice eye dropper pen. Has a traditional pen style with Ebonite & resin material but holds a good amount of ink. Writes well, but i use it more for drawing do to it's large ink capacity. Dig all my Opus 88's.

Opus makes very high quality pens for the price. There's no exception to that with Koloro. Very good finish and the nib is very smooth and ink flow quite consistent.

It's a nice pen. I am just not used to the type of filling mechanism - ink flow will stop if you don't open it a little bit.

Very well made pen! I love the look and feel of it, and also love that it comes with an eye dropper system. It is well worth the money spent.
