I don't have much to say about this pen.
It's a modern "art" pen, meant for calligraphy rather than casual
writing. It's an interesting design exercise-- those little
yellow tabs, apart from putting one in mind of squids, act to prevent
the pen from rolling off a table when it's set down, which is a very
good idea indeed. Like other Japanese cartridge pens, it's set up to
allow the cartridge to be changed without having the cap off.
Unlike many other calligraphy pens,
there's a size indicator on the section so you if you've got a set, you
don't have to take the caps off to find the one you're looking for.
