Picasso 916 Malage Fountain Pen Original Box New Version (Sunset Gray, Extra Fine Nib 0.38mm)

I don’t normally write reviews but I had to about this pen. It makes my handwriting so much better. I love pens and this is now my favourite

Very smooth writing action

The Pros:- Strong, satisfying click to remove the lid- Easy flowing, once you get the pen started- No real 'scratchiness' that you might expect from a fine nib, possibly due to paper quality- Line weight can be adjusted with practice by using different pen angles, try it!The Cons:- Mine needed a little water on the nib to encourage it to write for the first time, but never again

Good quality casting of components leading to robust tool that facilitates steadier hand writing. Advisable for signing of docu ments. Creates a steadier hand for writing in English. Has been used for illustration. Has been used constantly and am delighted to have made this purchase on this occasion at this time for job in hand. Thank you.

Absolutely beautiful penVery heavy - feels lovely in the hand. Looks and feels like a quality writing instrument.Nib is perfect medium point and the ink flows beautifully (albeit quite ‘heavily’, so does use a bit of ink). However, everything about it,more than makes up for it!

Maybe i got a bad unit but it was scratchy, even for a medium nib, there was barely any ink flow, even when it did flow, it was very inconsistent. Tried 3 different inks, cartridges, convertors, no luck.

A well-made pen, looks smart, strong clip. The extra-fine nib writes smoothly, doesn't snag on the paper, and is finer than some others also classed as extra-fine. Nice weight, balances well with the cap on the end.

How does anyone think this qualifies as an "ultrafine" nib. It's a medium at best and more realistically a broad.Another waste of my time and money and with Amazon returns now so complicated and time-consuming, a loss I'm going to have to swallow.
