The Conklin All American Fountain Pen - Raven Black is a modern interpretation of classic American fountain pen design, combining bold proportions with an understated monochromatic finish. Inspired by Conklin's oversized writing instruments of the 1930s, the All American collection was created to deliver a comfortable, full-sized writing experience while honoring more than a century of one of America's most historic pen manufacturers. The Raven Black edition distills that heritage into its most timeless form, pairing deep black resin with matching black appointments for a refined, contemporary aesthetic.
While many All American models emphasize colorful resins and vintage-inspired finishes, Raven Black embraces simplicity. Its all-black presentation gives the pen a quiet confidence that appeals equally to everyday writers and enthusiasts who appreciate clean, purposeful design. The result is a writing instrument that feels equally at home in a boardroom, journal, or personal collection.
Craftsmanship & Design
The Raven Black is crafted from high-grade European resin finished in a rich gloss black with subtle marbling that gives each pen its own individual character. Rather than appearing flat or uniform, the resin reveals delicate variations beneath the polished surface, adding depth while maintaining its understated appearance. Black metal trim continues the monochromatic theme, creating a cohesive design that feels modern while remaining faithful to Conklin's historic styling.
The All American's generously proportioned barrel and gently tapered cap draw inspiration from vintage Conklin writing instruments produced during the company's golden era. Its larger dimensions provide a substantial presence in hand without sacrificing balance, making it particularly appealing to writers who prefer oversized fountain pens. The signature spring-loaded rocker clip completes the design, preserving a feature that has become closely associated with Conklin's long history.
Enthusiasts often appreciate the All American because it delivers the visual character of a classic American fountain pen while incorporating modern manufacturing techniques and dependable contemporary components.
Writing Experience
The Conklin All American Fountain Pen - Raven Black is fitted with a premium JoWo #6 stainless steel nib manufactured in Germany. Widely respected throughout the fountain pen community, JoWo nibs are known for their consistency, smooth writing characteristics, and dependable performance. Available in a range of nib widths, the nib delivers reliable ink flow with a pleasant balance of smoothness and control suitable for everything from daily note-taking to correspondence and journaling.
The pen fills via a standard international cartridge/converter system and includes a threaded converter for bottled ink. Combined with the pen's well-balanced oversized profile, the filling system provides both convenience and compatibility with a broad range of fountain pen inks, making the All American an excellent everyday writer.
Brand Heritage
Founded in Toledo, Ohio in 1898, Conklin helped shape the early history of American fountain pens through a series of innovative designs, including the company's famous Crescent Filler mechanism. More than a century later, the Conklin name continues to represent accessible American heritage combined with modern writing performance.
The All American collection celebrates that legacy by drawing inspiration from the larger, comfortable fountain pens that became popular during the early twentieth century. The Raven Black edition brings a contemporary perspective to this historic design language, pairing timeless styling with reliable JoWo nib technology to create a fountain pen that honors Conklin's past while remaining thoroughly suited to modern everyday writing.
