  • New Pen Day! I purchased both versions of the Esterbrook Estie in Winter White. This video is extremely stream-of-consciousness as I work out my thoughts about the push-button Estie. Please let me know if you have any questions! I know I rambled a bit and didn't say everything correctly, but I was just saying my thoughts out loud! Let's chat about it!

    Thank you for doing such a thorough side-by-side! There were so many differences I was not aware of.

      I'm glad I could help! There were so many differences that I had no idea about! I really thought they were exactly the same except for the end of the barrel having a ring and removable cap to push the piston. I forgot there was an ink window, and I didn't know about the other differences at all!

    Thank you so much for this video. I am really drawn to the piston filler version of this pen. They are both gorgeous, but I love how much ink the piston filler holds (2.11 ml, according to Goulet), the ease of filling, and the lovely ink window! I have a big birthday coming up, and would love one of these!

      I think this would be a fabulous birthday pen! Esterbrook did an excellent job with this one, in my opinion. Though I haven’t tried to clean it yet…

      @@gingerpeachy at your encouragement, the new piston pen was ordered, arrived, been examined, and it’s gorgeous. Then my hubby, who thought it was exceptionally elegant, has put it away in the safe until my birthday!

    Nice video. I enjoyed the comparison and seeing the differences. I had no idea they would be that different.

      I didn’t either! I expected the only difference to be the piston end of the pen. I had even forgotten about the ink window!

    Thank you for the comparison. And the clarification for me about the Button Filler. I thought there was an ink sac inside. Which is why I never considered getting one of those Esties. But I still think I would have taken the regular Estie with converter. I find them easier to clean. And I am very proud of myself that I did not get one although I find it very pretty.😊

    Hi Sarah, what an interesting comparison. I bought the standard version of this pen, my first Estie with a fine nib but the push button is quite intriguing. Very happy with the one I have though.

    Great comparison! Have you decided which one you enjoy more and for what reasons?

    • @gingerpeachy

      Thank you! They are both currently inked and I am enjoying both of them. But if I had to keep just one, it would be the push button filler. The weight is so nice, and I really like the grip section!
