FLEX NIB Fountain Pen, Piston Fill, Clear Demo

Took an age to arrive. Gently screwed the lid together. Popped it in my coat pocket and the screw thread snapped immediately. If the seller can send me a replacement lid, I'll give more stars for the pen section, but currently not really fit for purpose. Also it smells like someone has used it as a thermometer. (Not mouth or armpit)

This pen is suitable for pitman's Shorthand writing.

Really good flex nib pen for the price. I think I got really lucky on this particular production unit or I’m not experienced enough in the “fountain pen world” to know any better but I’ve rarely had any hiccups (as pictured on the “g” in “writing sample”) and the line variation is super good (with some needed pressure of course. I’m only docking this a few stars because the smell makes this impossible to take with you to work without someone asking if you farted. Edit: as of 3 years from the original review I can say the smell has gone away… not sure when but I can say with confidence it went away after the first year or so from use, just don’t put it in a bag before then haha

Buena fluidez, mucha flexibilidad en la punta, acabados aceptables, la pluma no es bonita para lucirla, pero si lo que se puede lograr con ella. La escritura es mejor que con muchas plumas costosas de marca premium, vale la pena para por pocos pesos para quien disfruta el arte de la escritura.

Pen smells really bad, has a low quality and the nib is not that flexy (it needs a lot of pressure to get to line variation). Don't recommend at all.
