Crocodile 215

March 28, 2015

I thought I would find a dragon from the land of dragons. But a dragon was not available. So, I ended up buying a crocodile

This one was a really happy crocodile...and also made me very happy. I could not understand why crocodiles were considered so dangerous.

Besides, it had glittering and shining eyes, was slim and really easy to hold. I was sure it was not going to give me any slip or run away. It was wild and brought with it the wilderness one could hardly imagine.

Its easy to understand why we get scared - sharp tooths, biting, scratching - anything that would hurt! But what if it was smooth - indeed very suave, very cultured and well behaved - even ready to get tamed - not just understanding you but even ready to follow you with every move? Ah everyone would then love to have such crocodile !

So my little crocodile - here you see:

I had never thought I would be writing with the tongue of a crocodile who is perhaps basking in the sun.

But I finally decided it was time to do that ! And I cant stop my amazement (and bewilderment) as to how fine and smooth its tongue is. It writes fine and no feedback ! Those who use fine nib, know that experience, where they would reject the scratchy types but write with the smoother ones. But even the smoother ones have that "feedback" thing on the paper. But this FP feels like as if I am writing with a broad nib - the nib itself writes the Chinese fine.

The FP as such is very well made, well balanced. Its on the slimmer side. Gets posted well and is well balanced. The trims have the characteristic crocodile images that is characteristic of the brand.

And did I forget the glamour element in the shinning and glittering eyes - thats lovely and enticing.

The filling system is the standard cartridge/converter. The FP comes with converter.

Excellent FP if you are looking at something on the wild side.
