Crowquill Classic Fountain Pen
This pen will be be released for sale Thursday August 28, 2025.
Draw, letter and write using a crowquill fitted to our Classic Fountain Pen. The crowquill is a favorite nib with many types of artists, from calligraphers to comic book artists. The crowquill is a pointed nib that's very flexible and lays down a wide variation of line widths from very thin lines to medium width lines. The crowquill could be the oldest nib in continuous use. It gets name from the quill feather of a crow, but it looks more like the toe on a crow with the fine sharp point.
We provide the Hunt 102 crowquill with every pen. You can use crowquills made by other manufactures. There are no standards that apply to crowquill nibs, so some nibs called "crowquill" actually fit our Hawk Quill pens. Hawk Quills are similar in shape and design to crowquills, but are slightly larger in size.
The crowquill nib is a single piece of rolled spring steel rolled into a tube with one pointed ed. The crowquill is usually coated or anodized to resist corrosion. The ink must travel down the center of the nib, which constrains the flow with thicker inks. For this reason, we suggest you use the Crowquill Classic Pump Pen so you can press the pump to encourage the flow of ink through the narrow tube of the crowquill nib body. Crowquill nibs work well in our Classic Fountain pen, but you have less control over the flow.
You can remove the adaptor that holds the crowquill and feed to clean these items and to replace them when necessary. You can purchase crowquill nibs and crowquill ink feeds separately.

Everyone uses pens, we all have our favorites, and our favorites change over time. What we need is the infinitely configurable pen, but that defies the world we live in. There are physical contraints, and no more so than a tool we hold in our hands. It can't be too small or too big, too thick or too thin, and the feel must be appealing - our hands are very sensitive. The tool's performance must be excellent or we will move on until we find what we're looking for. Few things are more frustrating than a pen that doesn't work as expected.
We build pens for artists because everyone is an artist when they handle a pen, when they draw, write, even scribble. You are making your mark! A good pen should enable you to draw or write the way you want to. The pen should fit in your hand and feel comfortable. Most of all it should let you use nibs you enjoy and the inks and paints you want to use.
The perfect pen should be strong and durable yet easy to clean through frequent use with little maintenance, and survive the bumps and falls of everyday use. This is what we try to achieve using a combination of new technology and proven designs. We use CAD applications that let us produce novel designs using new machines that let us recreate features from the "golden age of fountain pens". We use modern materials that serve our purpose, feel good in your hand, remain good looking over time and through use, and prevent ink and paint buildup that can plug your pen.
There is no one pen that will provide everything you want, but we keep trying!
