There are several serious problems with this pen:
1. There is no rolling stopper, so the pen can easily roll on the surface of your table and fall on the floor. 2. The nib is screwed but not locked inside of the pen. You must tighten it somehow before starting using the pen. Otherwise, be prepared for nib section to jump off the pen while writing. 3. There is no cap clip and there is no way to add a clip without drilling and scratching the finish. 4. You can't post the cap without damaging the pen finish. 5. Most serious is the pen finish. Although it is black and mat, it absorbs the ink and it is very hard to wipe the ink off. When ink stays on the pen body, even if it is dry, it paints your finger, which is not something you are expecting from a quality pen.
Consider all these before buying it. I like the nib and the overall build quality and I hope to fix all above problems by myself to make it daily useful. But if I knew about all these problems before I bought it, I would probably go for Faber-Castells E-motion PureBlack, although it is almost 3 times more expensive.
