The fit and finish on these pens is infernally bad. One pen has a gallon of glue goop on various points, while the other has a large scratch running down the side of it. It's impossible to unscrew the pen head cover without first unscrewing the ink compartment, thereby spilling the pen's guts on the desk. The screw-section threads are cheaply made and covered with thick, dark, sticky grease.
This has been the final time I buy something with the Boker name on it. Boker is probably the worst knife and accessories maker on the market right now; incapable of even the most remote of quality control on their products.
My past experiences with Boker products have been the same. However, because these pens looked very nice on the Massdrop page, and because it's been a couple of years since I purchased Boker, I thought I would give them another chance (many manufacturers do learn from their mistakes over time, after all; see Benchmade). That was a huge mistake on my part.
I highly recommend that everyone avoid this brand in the future.
Compare this to the equivalent picture of the reinforced metal tip on the MPP model's picture on the site:

This is how this pen arrived; with solidified, seeped cement-glue goop emanating from the cracks.
