Review: Porsche Design "TecFlex" (P'3110)

Actually, it is a wonderful material - the weaved surface.

I can only imagine how well it will put up against scratches.

I've had this pen over 11 years! I love it and just got another compliment on it today. It's in great shape still.

I'm new to collecting pens but this one caught my eye. How much would one of these guys go for?

Was wondering how it compares in size to a Lamy 2000. Feel sure that it weighs more. Looking for a larger weighter pen than the lamy 2000. I like the fact that it seems tough and durable.

It weighs about the same as a Lamy 2000M, but it's longer. I can post the cap on my Lamy 2000M, but not on my P3110.. it becomes too unwieldy. That said, it would probably weigh a little over twice as much as a Lamy 2000 Makrolon.

 

The writing feel is very similar. The P3110 is smoother, while the Lamy is a bit wetter. Both are stiff nibs. One thing I like about the P3110 is that I can easily check the ink level by unscrewing the grip and nib section and checking the converter. Not possible on the 2000M, though the 2000 has an ink window. I think the Lamy has a larger ink capacity though.

 

I like that the Lamy is not a screw top, but the P3110 cap releases in a single turn, so it's not terribly inconvenient.
