I am interested in your impressions when you locate and use an Edson. I have three of them and I find them to be large, comfortable pens that have a little weight and substance to them. They are also lovely. Mine have all been great writers out of the box. The nibs are rigid, but that is a good trait since mine have factory stub nibs. I also got an EF nib for my ruby (old model) example and it, too, writes like a charm. I wish the black model were not so #%& expensive or I would have one of that version, too.
A friend of mine just lent me to test drive an edson with broad nib. IŽll test it and compare it to my Carene Stub. Shortly IŽll post my impressions.
