Customer Reviews
This is my first gold nib and it's exceeded my expectations! This pen is so smooth and so comfortable! I love the chess theme and am on a mission to find the knight to e4 now. It's a bit pricey but the value I've gotten from this one is amazing! Absolutely love it and can't wait to see what the next piece to come out!
Love the feel of the metal section, and the overall design looks sleek. As always, Goulet did a great gob with shipping!
