Hey guys, beware Noodler's pens. They are extremely prone to breaking, especially the Konrad, and don't perform well as far as flex pens go. They do not give an accurate depiction of fountain pens. You'd be a lot better off spending the $15 on a Pilot Metro, or investing in something larger, such as a Pelikan M150 or a Lamy.
That being said, Noodler's ink is fairly decent, with the exception of Baystate Blue, which has been known to permanently stain everything it comes into contact with as well as destroy pens. I'd really recommend not getting that one.

LockethI can't speak for the Creaper or Konrad, but my Ahab has been performing just about perfectly as a near-daily writer for well over a year. The flex is admittedly not the greatest, but you can't expect greatness in a steel-nibbed pen, especially this cheap. I'll see how the other two compare once I get them, I guess.
I'm with you on the inks, though. Have not and will not try BSB, love everything else.

JaegerI use a pair of Ahab pens and a Lamy Safari for my edc pens. I also have had zero issues with them. As for the flex nibs, I bought non-flex replacements and have been very impeded with hire they write with those.
