So, I just got mine and was really looking forward to having a wet writer. That is what so many reviews and comments had indicated. I'm disappointed to say that it is extremely dry. I've tried a couple different inks and it is consistently slow to flow and very dry. Is there anything I can do to remedy this?
VRHamiltonA quick check of the tines could tell you if you have a tiniest slit between, of if they simply go together at the end. If they do, check YouTube for instantly make your fountain pen wetter. There is a simple instruction of simply applying a bit of pressure on the nib as you push the tines over your thumbnail or a hard surface. You should check this and decide if you want to try it. If you do try it - just go gentle. Found the link for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWCGAfBeWM4NB! You do this on your own accord. If this is your first pen, may I suggest you try contacting Massdrop or Italix first?
If you do have some space between them, may be your feed that is off - drop Italix a line and they may help you. I had no luck when I bought from Massdrop - but when I have bought directly from them, they're a delight to deal with.
Heard this before somewhere on this website. Just can't quite place it:

Unfamiliar with the difference between Italic and Stub nibs? Here's an article that helps explain the difference, along with a photo below lifted from that article. However, Italix seems to differentiate between Cursive and Italic as if they are two different things, so I'm not sure what to think.

Unacceptable, Massdrop. Original ship date was already 27 days from purchase date. Why can’t you hit these ridiculously long deadlines? This is the second time you’ve done this to me, and this time I want a refund AND I want my pen.
