While the pen is definitely...,
December 20, 2011
While the pen is definitely beautiful, the one I received was scratchy to write
with and I haven't been able to find the Goldilocks writing angle between barely
laying down any ink and laying a thick line that takes an hour to dry. I put the
pen under powerful magnification I could see several burrs on the tip that
hadn't been ground down when the pen was finished. I took some 800 grit wet dry
and smoothed it out, which helped with the scratchiness, but did nothing for the
thin line/insanely thick line problem.
Now that I've voided the warranty I'll keep experimenting to see if there's
anything I can do to smooth things out. I know there must be some good writin'
in there somewhere; I bought the pen because of all the good reviews.
