My New Toy - Delta Momo Tork

[seapin]

My newest purchase was a Delta Momo Tork. Here's a quick review after using it all day.

 

It is a nice pen, with a black body made of resin, and rose gold trim. I found it on the specials page at Bertram's Inkwell (and a very special price it was) https://www.bertramsinkwell.com/Delta-Momo-Design-Black-Fountain-Pen.html

 

Being a Momo design pen, it is racing inspired. Between the cap and the body, it appears that there are gears lining up, and it looks very cool when you twist the cap off. Some people do not like "Momo Design" being engraved down the side of the pen, but you do not see the words when writing with the pen. I personally like the touch.

 

The nib was surprisingly springy (steel nib), almost rivals the Pelikan steel nibs.

 

The pen did skip a few times, but overall the flow was nice, and it provided nice lines to exemplify the shading of the ink being used. To fix the skipping it may just need a cleaning and some tweaking. The pen was overall a very smooth writer, and it may work into my rotation of daily users.

 

Here is a writing sample:

 

Overall, I would say 7.5 out of 10 stars. Not the greatest pen on the market, but for the price, it is definitely above average.

I have one of these as well, and really like it. No problems at all with skipping you may just need to clean it.

 

Enjoy!

I've got one of these pens (black with rose gold trim and steel M nib) but never used it. I feel the grip of the section (two different diameters) rather strange, althoug nowadays a similar design of this section is used in some Leonardo pens. What is your personal experience when writing? Do you get tired soon because of the grip?
