If I can find where its hidden I will see if I can sneak a photo-shoot and dip test while she is not looking.

 

That'd be awesome.

That'd be awesome.

No luck yet, its hidden better than previous years presents.

How do you like it?

[Pete-M]

How do you like it?

 

More testing, but so far, brilliant. Smooth, wet, nice variation on the lines even losing a bit for being a cursive...not an italic.

It's time to put pen to paper...

[FPscribe]

Are there any plans for these in alternate colours, similar to the Essential?

[Aysedasi]

Not that I'm aware of. I'd be surprised if there were......

We have had terrific sales of the Chaplain's Tankard but few YouTube reviews. We thought we should offer a brief showcase, which we have done with other models. Here it is.

Mr. Ford, your written and video explanations of the design rationale in your pens are very helpful in this thread. Thank you for contributing.

The Chaplain's Tankard is now our second largest selling pen, the first being the Parson's Essential. Figboot on pens has produced a comprehensive review on YouTube:

I just ordered a Captain's Commission, in black with a fine cursive nib, as a bday gift to self. It will be my introduction to the brand and I am pretty excited about it!

I really like the looks of several Italix models and it was difficult to narrow it down.

 

Now just have to wait for it to make it to California!

I have put the Imperium State fountain pen back on the production schedule and we will have stocks from early May. It is a small seller because it is a very heavy pen and I toyed with dropping the model but feedback has suggested that it has still got some wind left in its sails (sales) so it is back

We are adding two new colours to our long established Churchman's Prescriptor line, Coffee (light brown as in latte) and Burgundy Red. Delivery Mid July 2019.

Not sure if this is the right place for this question, but... Is the Italix M Italic nib semi-equivalent to a 1.1 mm stub nib (in regards to line width)? Or is there another size Italix nib that would be comparable? Thank you.

My Italix M stub is wider than my TWSBI 1.1 and wider than my Goulet 1.1 and about the same as my Nemosine 0.8.

I bought all those pens over three years ago, so YRMV.
