Franklin-Christoph M-14 FP-Red

[xuan87]

just got my Model 14 in red. they're supposed to be out of production but apparently FC still has some in stock, so i quickly bought 1! i got both EF and F nib and i'm using the EF nib. i'm using a new ink in it, so i have no idea whose fault is it ( the ink or the nib) but THIS IS THE SMOOTHEST EF NIB I'VE EVER USED!! after trying a number of EF nibs, i'm resigned to the fact that all EF nibs are scratchy and toothy to a certain extent, and i'll be happy if the nib can lay down an unbroken line. but the model 14 proved me wrong. This is one of the smoothest nib ( not just among the EF nibs) i've used. it's not buttery smooth, but the friction present is just nice such that i actually prefer this pen to my other buttery smooth pen. The magnet in the cap/body enables me to click shut the pen with only 1 hand. the only grief i have with it is that it's heavier than i had imagine and i can't use it posted ( although i'm a non poster) as it throws my balance off.

 

once again, good job FC! you've renewed my faith in EF nibs.
