Brass oxidizes uniquely, and the patina is unique to each pen based on the writer's body chemistry and use habits. That's considered by many to be the great property of brass. Like it or hate it, you'll drive yourself crazy keeping it polished.

+pastor slw Yeah, I like the patina, but I wanted to shine it up a little for the video. 👍🏼

Genius idea to cut off the end of the standard converter to use it on the Gist. I am not happy with the converter that came with my Gist. I'll be doing a little surgery on a standard international converter this weekend!

Amazon Germany sells it for 79,50 Euros (M nib). I wouldn't spend much more on this pen. But I've already got 2 Kawecos (Al-Sport and Sport). ☺️

Great review, covered all the points I wanted to see. Although does anyone have any ideas how many turns to uncap? Looked like 4, quite a few. Cheers!

Thanks for the vid Mike! Have to get me at least one brass FP. This may be the one! That 823 has reduced my cravings for new pens drastically though. It's definitely a collection killer.

Kaweco is soo superior design wise.

Thanks, Mike, for yet another enlightening review. The Kaweco looks great. I have not delved too deeply into brass. Maybe now I will. And, gotta love me som anchovies on my pie. Peace✌️

Posted this doesn't look any longer than a new yellow pencil. It looks about the same diameter too.

+Darold Booton I’ll compare it to a pencil when I get home. I think it might be similar.

Can you get three pens int he Kaweco tin? (Two horizontally and a Lilliput in at an angle.)
@inkdependence7 жыл бұрын
I don’t think so, but that Lilliput is really small. Maybe it could be don’t with some creative alteration of the tin’s insert?
@bob963me7 жыл бұрын
It was just a interesting curiosity, probably impractical, because there would be nothing to stop the Lilliput from banging against the sides of the other two pens if it did fit. Thanks fro entertaining my madness.

Ah. Weird that those didn't come up in my google searches. I also see Vanness has this pen in stock, so that's another source.
