I feel good supporting some artisan who makes pens since I love pens, here's his website by the way: https://www.manupropria-pens.ch/welco... I think I knew before I even ordered the pen that it wouldn't satisfy me completely. I already have everything I want in the Rotring Isograph, which is a totally different type of pen (as far as the nib goes) but if curiosity didn't kill this cat, it at least lightened its wallet. I'm still happy with the purchase of this pen, since it arrived exactly to my specifications, and it was only my own hopes and dreams that somehow spending more on a pen might mystically make it better, and it did, but only in ways that are adjacent to the things that truly matter to me, that is, how it feels to draw with it. And it's not bad to draw with, it works great, but I think no fountain pen ever will really be as satisfying to me as my Rotring Isograph, which is the peak of utilitarian line-making.
