I ordered 2 pens: both clear bodied, one fine nib and one medium nib. I had aweful results with one and VERY good results with the other as I will note below. The bad pen: Firstly, the gold rings that adorn the pen came off with very minimal use as they were probably not glued in correctly. Secondly, As others have pointed out the pen smelled quite rank. The smell was so bad it definitly made me not want to use it. Thirdly, the piston system was most likely improperly threaded during the manufacturing process resulting in a skip in the draw mechanism when filling with ink. I would rate this pen 1/5 stars. The good pen: Everything works and looks right.There is no smell and no issues with the piston. So far no problems with the gold rings coming off. The fine nib has written quite wonderfully and my blue ink looks great within the pen. I am very pleased considering the price point. I would rate this pen 4/5 stars. Problems with both pens: The threading is very poorly machined. The threads need to be dressed (cleaned) when they are finished but instead you can see burrs from the process. This pen is probably injection molded or done by CNC mill I would assume so i would want there to be an additional tool entry where a strong comb is used to clean the threads after they have been cut or released from the mold. The fact that the pens were so different is what I find most concerning. I have spent a couple years in the manufacturing industry and there is no other way to put it than this being a lack of quality control. Overall I would rate this as being a 2/5 star drop becuase you cant be sure if you will get a good or bad pen. I will say the good pen is very nice considering the price point which for me makes it worth it.
