I gave the Design 4 Code from the last drop as a gift just over a week ago. I have to say that I was myself impressed by how sleek and gorgeous it was. The palladium feels phenomenal, and it is neither slippery nor annoyingly grippy. It is short unposted, but when you post it it returns to normal fountain pen lengths. It's a smooth writer - the cartridge which it comes with sucks, but meh - and the nib is very attractive. The cap screws on to smooth threads, however this is where the one questionable design choice occurs. Where the cap screws on, the pen also unscrews to open up to the cartridge/filling area. While in theory this would not be an issue, it's more of an annoyance in the real world as it seems to repeatedly come loose.
