I will start this discussion by saying I have a Tradio ( in black ) and like it very much. I believe I odered it through Amazon for 20+ dollars. So 2 pens for 19.99 is a great price.
The Tradio nib is very smooth. It is a wet nib and writes like a medium. I might go as far as to say , depending on the ink, leans toward a med-broad. Because of it's good flow, it shows off the shading abilities of better inks.
I don't know if this true for these Tradios being offered through Massdrop. However, I don't see an option for selecting nib sizes. So I assume they offer the one nib size ??
I Iike the pen design and nib very much. It is one I grab often for everyday use. Definitely a sturdy, knock about pen. I have been thinking of getting another for a while... This is a great chance to get two of them for an awesome price.
LizThanks Liz - I figured that was the case.
Itshoukd not deter others from joing this drop ! I love mine and this price is the best deal I've ever seen. This is about the price for one Tradio 👍🏻
writerstephen@writerstephen - I have an international long cartridge in mine now. I tried several converters this morning for you.. I have several different brands and styles that I bought online... the inexpensive converters ( China ) fit, but didn’t seat snuggly. A Schmidt converter fit perfectly. Did you get a Tradio ? How do you like it ? 🙂. Edit : I just saw that there is a drop for them now. Guessing you’re deciding, to joining or not to join, that is the question. I say join.
