What I really liked was your comparative pics which show Genius to be larger than Airborne. You just allayed my apprehensions. Thanks.

I am glad to hear that the section is comfortable to use as I could hold out no longer and ordered an I Can. Now looking at the comparative photos with the 78G, I may have to order a Genius as well.

Regarding Genius - i found that (unlike Athlete) it takes the Jinhao #6 pretty well. Perhaps it also takes the German made nibs well. And these nibs can be well adjusted within the given dimension of cap. The stock nibs are broader in shoulder. Compared to the stock nib the jinhao and german bock nibs are slender - so can be adjusted for ink flow /wetness /dryness.

 

And yes the section is very comfortable

 

And thanks for all the appreciation :-)

I put my savings to test

Lamy & Pilot FPs the Best

No more I even think of the rest

(Preference Fine and Extra Fine Nibs)

Pen is meant for writing - not for looking :-)

They usually put up the banner a week or two before listing.

Lucky you (all of you) or maybe I'm just jinxed, I've been waiting for a long time now to get my pens from ASA. So far, it has mostly been me reading all your posts, and hoping that my order will turn up.

Can you give us some detail. You are from India. Orders, when they are not for custom pens turn up in four days. What happened.

Guys today I received my Frosted(aka Galactic). The pen is GORGEOUS. I chose JOWO FF fine nib. Oh My God!!! The pen is a masterpiece.

 

Loved it.

Something interesting that is not widely discussed, is that the Pilot steel nibs from the MR/78G type pens fit in the Oliver Tulip. You can have a nice piston filler with an excellent nib for a reasonable price with a Tulip and a 78G.

Agree.
