This is a very nice pen...., August 24, 2011
This is a very nice pen. The fine nib is VERY fine--was almost concerned that
it was too scratchy, but the ink flow is smooth and reliable and this pen is a
delight. The fine nib requires very little pressure, but is fine/sharp enough
that it works on pressure sensitive paper. The construction of the pen is very
nice--I bought Ivory, and it looks very sophisticated. The clip works well, is
secure; good secure *click* with the pen cap. This pen is a good value.

Meh, not great. Pen..., August 24, 2011
Meh, not great. Pen feels cheap/plasticky. Of course, almost all pens are
plastic, but this one really feels like it. Nib fitting and barrel screw
together loosely so it feels like it needs to be tightened, but feels like it
would crack if you did. The clip is stylish but no room to actually put the
fabric of your shirt pocket under it--feels like it would break off. Writes ok,
nothing special. The fine nib is not all that fine, in my opinion--but I use a
lot of Pilot/Namiki fine point fountain pens and those are VERY fine. Rather a
disappointing pen for the price, though it is very attractive to look at.
