S.t. Dupont Defi

[jar]

 

My comment was not to say I would not buy a St. Dupont, I most certainly would. I liked the design of the Orpheo, I would just prefer another color than just a standard polished black lacquer over a metal body.

 

 

Ah, so maybe:

The other thing to remember is that the lacquer on an ST Dupont pen, whether Chinese laque or commercial is a multi-stage process with multiple layers each cured, sanded and polished before the next layer is applied.

I like them all, although that top one calls out to me....

Today, exceptionnaly, only I'm using only one pen : my Dupont Defi filled with Iroshizuku Yama Iro. I'm in love with that ink !!!!!!! I also like the Defi now ..... Yes, I say "now" because when I tried it for the first time, I didn't like that nib without any flex ( such as Waterman Carene or Edson ...) but the way it writes, so "juicy" and the handle of it are so great .... (I even don't talk about the eye catching look) ..... I'm really happy with my Defi (as I am with my Néo Classique) !!!!!!!!!!!!

Flex on a carène nib.... I was not aware of that..... I own a carene deluxe with silverplated ciselised cap....

 

 

Love that pen thoug the M nib appears a bit broadish..... will have to test that flex thanks for the tip...

 

Btw the defi nib is that steel

 

Thanks Peter

No no, ..... No flex at all ... The nib is hard like a nail ..... ( just like the Carene and Edson) ....

From my understanding, S.T. Dupont is unparalleled in quality. In my experience, they are smooth writing and extremely consistent.
