Best Everyday Pen
"This pen has become my staple for notes, planning, and everyday tasks. It has a very smooth nib and is just the right weight. If you are new to fountain pens - check this one out because you won't be disappointed."
The Kolo Tino is a testament to the elegance of minimalism, designed to conquer new frontiers without sacrificing ergonomic excellence. Its compact form slips easily into pocket or pen case, balanced perfectly in hand, yet never diminishing in its gravitas. A nod to the opulence of 20th-century art deco, the pen’s modern silhouette is a quiet symphony of form and function.
With German-engineered nibs and housings, each stroke feels deliberate and precise, transforming every word into a work of art. Available exclusively through select prestigious dealers around the world, the Kolo Tino pen brings the artistry of writing to life—an heirloom to be treasured by those who understand the subtle, yet transformative power of a beautifully designed pen.

"Really innovative design, writes beautifully!"
"The pen is great."
"The pen was what I expected. I like the way it writes."
"A great little pen. Very nice nib and good ink flow."
"This pen is beautiful to look at and well made. Unfortunately it is hard to write with this for anything more than very quick notes or signatures. The brass version is very heavy which makes my hand fatigued while writing. I don’t think I would recommend the brass version especially as a pocket pen."
"Absolutely LOVE the tino fountain pen, i got the brass version because I like a heavier pen and it didnt disappoint at all, its got weight, the ink flows nicely and it writes so smooth, being able to refill so easily is also a nice touch, highly recommend picking one up if you havent already!"
"First the good part. This pen is beautiful! The design is spectacular. Schmidt nibs are sooo smooth. I love pocket pens and this pen is a delight. It takes some adjusting to the grip style when writing, but I love the look and feel and the way it writes. The reason I took off a star is because it comes with a medium nib and you can not swap it out for a fine or extra fine, which is what I planned to do when I ordered it. I tried, but the nib and housing is totally permanent. I think I damaged the nib trying to change it. Also, this medium nib actually writes more like a broad. So make sure you like medium/broad nibs before you order. If you like medium nibs, then you should love this gorgeous pen!"
"Love sketching with this pen! You can get a variety of line widths by adjusting how you hold it. Also the ink allows for lighter tones all the way to jet black. The sketches made using this pen stand out from felt tips and have a new aesthetic of their own."
"It's a really beautiful pen; before you even take the top off, it's a work of art on its own! Writing with it is a dream, and I also use it for my artwork. It's particularly good for drawing whiskers!"
