@@sarakatieee I just started using it. It does absorb the ink in a way that can cause ink spreading and has the ability to make the ink look feathered. So far, it's not a problem but it could be, with a very wet ink or nib that puts a lot of ink down.

I love this pen. I have a fine, and it just goes to show you don’t need a gold nib to have an awesome writer. Unfortunately, I was using mine at work, where I have no business using it, I work in a fast paced, chaotic environment, disaster was eminent. So, I dropped it, on a hard floor, and the bottom barrel broke where the sparkly part meets the black screw on the nib part. I was able to superglue it back together, and you can’t tell…but still…😿 I did contact Benu and they offered to sell me the bottom barrel for less than a whole new pen would cost - but I think I would rather just get another pen.

Two years late reply, but for the Duocart, even the vintage Duocarts close in this way. There's no click. It's friction on a ring. It seems pretty reliable and I haven't had any issues with it. On the little ink bottles that come with some Aurora pens, you can figure out the color of the ink by looking at the wax on the tips of the cord. If they are both blue, it's Aurora Blue. If they are both black, it's Aurora Black, and if one is blue and the other is black, it's Aurora Blue Black
