I have the feeling that you're kind of happy... hehehe... Personal question, about Medium and Fine nibs, you don't like then because of the letters design when writing or for any specific nib feedback when writing?
I added a couple omas to my stash b4 they where no more.. they are really nice and I think some what under utilized treasure today, still hoping for an OMAS revival
Awesome pens! Speaking of OMAS I have always wanted one of the Ogiva cocktail. I can't find any retailers or even on ebay people who sell them. Any idea on where to look?
I have an old-style Milord, which is a favorite of mine. I got it in a trade, and it's one I feel luck to have. Have you tried out a Pilot Cosu nib? It seems like the kind of thing you would enjoy.
So far, impressions are good. The feed has a little trouble keeping up with fast writing, but it's not a terrible performance. I was able to loan the pen, so I'll shoot a review when I get a chance.
Thankyou. And I must say that my jealousy knows no bounds! Interestingly I had a chance to buy this from chatterley pens when it came out for around $2200 US! Seems I should have taken out a loan then and bought it!😥
Three beautiful looking instruments, but for myself, I'd only wish to own that triple broad - just don't like that 360, even with the ergonomic shape - all down to personal taste, of course. In fact, your own models of these three are nicer - both in looks & size. A very comprehensive set tho', & one (might) contemplate worth having, but 3,000 euros....no. Fantastic review, Stephen....I shall now retire to my study, to sob ;D

Happy Birthday Stephen
I managed to get an odd number (silver trim) 360 from one of these sets... such an amazingly weird pen, one day I will have to get a magnum
Thank you Stephen for a great review! I particularly enjoyed this one.

OMAS revival
Hey there! Very good review. Congratulations. Unfortunately, OMAS does not exist anymore as manufacture, but it will be always a legend.
Awesome pens! Speaking of OMAS I have always wanted one of the Ogiva cocktail. I can't find any retailers or even on ebay people who sell them. Any idea on where to look?
Great review as always.
Also, happy birthday! It's also my birthday (yay).
The Lobster is so cool!

benbot517 I'll check it out!
It's the broadest nib I have, broader than a Kaweco BB. It's incredibly fun to use.
Thank you, contemporary Stephen.
It's a nice set; I used to own the #1/90 version
Happy Birthday young fella!!
The BBB nib is the one to own. Nice set and great review.
Thanks for sharing. Magnificent pens.
Looks pretty nice
Steve have you had a chance to experiment with the upcoming Aurora 88 Flex?
Sako Janessian I will tomorrow.
sbrebrown ..let me know what your thoughts are on it please
sbrebrown Let me know Steve..keep up the great work

sbrebrown Would you consider buying one?.. I have a Noodler Ahab ..but it drips when I write..I've tried everything with that pen. I gave up.
Lord Windermere, Ha! Large tips jubblies, indeed!
I'm assuming you recorded this last summer :)
Gotta love that 3B!!!! If only it wasn't that expensive...........
BTW did you mean dodecagon?
Thankyou. And I must say that my jealousy knows no bounds! Interestingly I had a chance to buy this from chatterley pens when it came out for around $2200 US! Seems I should have taken out a loan then and bought it!😥
OMmaaaaaas!

dodecagon 12 sided shape
matthew Beddow Also 360/magnum are shapes of constant width, would roll the same as a circle, so 360 is sensible.
