This arrived this morning and I have to say I'm impressed it looks far better than it does in both mine and the sellers pics and despite having a carved patten feels really smooth and well finished. It's a good weight but not too heavy for me and is slightly slimmer than the x750

 

The nib is smaller than the x750 and writes beautifully straight out the box. I'm tempted to order the all silver version now I've seen how nice this one is

 

Please excuse the poor pic post-119977-0-21160800-1422623978_thumb.jpg

Nice one. Post some comparison pics with the 750 and 450 if you can...

I don't have the x450 but here's a rather poor pic of it next to the x750

It's a bit heavier and has an all metal body the black looks like some kind of enameling. The cap clips a lot tighter and it just feels a lot sturdier to me

 

I've just ordered the silver version so hopefully it will be the same quality :)

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
