pen leaks and ink bleeds
You do not want this pen. To get the cartridge onto the nib requires a bit of force before it clicks into place. The outer casing is thin and cheap and suctions onto the comfort grip. So by the time you wrestle the pen out of its cap there's ink everywhere -around the comfort grip and on the surface of the nib. The nib is not sharp and doesn't release the ink on a stati...

Do not buy
I regret purchasing this calligraphy pen. The ink smeared all over paper. I do not recommend it at all.

Disappointed
My husband and daughter love using fountain pens. She was wanting to use it to label a project for school. Similar to other customer reviews the pen would not function properly. It would work for a few stokes then stop. They would try to readjust but ultimately it was not worth the hassle.

Pen & paper
I’m a fountain pen junkie so of course I buy one when I see it. The nibs on the one I bought are too wide for letter writing but perfect for the date and heading. The tablet I bought is margin less the war I like it but the lines are too close together. I liked the ream you used to carry with the wider lines…perfect for letter writing.

Ink is cloggy
The pen looks beautiful but one you put a cartridge in place the timer is on. In a 70 degree room for 12 hours with minimal use and the pen capped the ink stopped flowing. I had picked this up to make the signing of some certificates look better as opposed to using one of my regular fountain pens. I have a large collection of them and rarely use anything else so ...

As a penista I love ALL types of pens. I wish you all continued with the ones you had before with different barrels--they were in the showcase that has also been removed. Great product overall!

Calligraphy Pen
I was very excited to purchase 2 of the pens but could not get the ink to go into the pen therefore was not able to use the pen for my project. The ink would not go into the pen so now.I plan to return the unopened pen. I was very disappointed.
