I have used fountain pens for over sixty years, calligraphic pens for over half a century. This Peaslee pen is the most comfortable to my hand that I have written with, and the nib writes the most smoothly, fluidly, and easily of all the nibs I have had, allowing clean beautiful lines and curves without conscious effort. Thank you! That it is a link to Miskatonic and the world of Lovecraft is sheer delicious gravy, and not lost on me, I assure you --- I am relaxing into the Classic Era as I think about it!
