OOOOH!  NICE!

Mine only has a Lustroy cap.  What's the nib on yours?

"It's very nice, but frankly, when I signed that list for a P-51, what I had in mind was a fountain pen."

I cleaned out my tiny little Chren. The nib is half the width of my pinky nail and about as long.

Pilot 91 SFM: KWZ Hunter Green somehow makes this nib less soft, trying now with Blood Orange; a pity since for once I didn't mind the shading.

 

Waterman Carène M frosty brown: Blood Orange started coming out much darker, now back to a medium hue.

I cleaned a favourite vintage Wyvern.  It's going back into my active pen rotation.

A no name Chinese piston filler that cracked. It was free with another purchase, and I filled it exactly one half fill. It’s a shame, as it was a lovely little writer. 
 

ETA: I used clear Gorilla waterproof tape on it and no leaks detected with water 🤞🏽

Pictures?

 

I must add that I've had better service from Royal Mail than either AusPost or USPS.  I know that may be a surprise for everyone in the UK given the recent strikes.
