Beyond praise. I didn’t calculate correctly, I should have taken not F but a larger size so that the writing would be softer, as I like it. The fine nib squeaks like a pencil. But this “pencil” beats all pencils! So when ordering, I recommend choosing a thicker nib, it will be softer. The nib says 14K585. 585 is the purity, i.e., 58.5% gold in the alloy. I recommend the manufacturer! I’ve been writing with Pilot since 1982, then it got stolen, and now I have Pilot again!!!

After purchasing fm, I will repurchase with sfm nib. Custom 742 is my favorite model and I am satisfied as it seems to be a good product again.

I’ve long wanted to try the FA flexible nib, I’m very satisfied with the pen.
Everything was very carefully packaged, the package included a con-70 converter. For now, I’m using my con-40 to test pens with different inks and find the ones that suit best.

Excellent Pilot quality as I expected. Smooth and distinctive nib: this time I tried the stub (SU) version which has a good line variation from fine to bold and makes cursive writing look very nice. Careful packaging.
