I’m a little annoyed at the pen industry
It seems like 95% of the pens I get need work! It’s pretty ridiculous actually. Doesn’t matter the cost from numbered Omas to Amazon Monteverde. I’ve had to work on all of them! Not minor tweaking mind you, but “hey this new $$$ Montegrappa doesn’t even write!” Or this $$ Omas doesn’t even write. Or this other $$ Omas doesn’t even write. You’re not going to like this but I’ve been batting 1000 with cheap Jinhao’s. Not like 5 but 15 or so. The nibs have been exceptional. It kind of pisses me off honestly. What’s going on out there!? I’ve seriously had thoughts of becoming a nib meister. There has to be an endless amount of work out there! You’d never run out of dry, misaligned, scratchy nibs.
