I very much like the look and feel of this pen, it is beautifully designed.

However, on arrival I was disappointed to find that the nib skipped and gave a lot of ‘hard starts’ when writing, even after the initial flushing out and cleaning, and after persevering with writing for a few days.

After adjusting and a light polishing of the nib, it now writes beautifully.

So while I am very pleased with my purchase, I’m not sure one should expect this with a pen of this brand and price point. Not every customer will be confident with adjusting their own brand new pens - particularly at this price.
