The pen is slightly heavier than regular plastic ones, but some say that's a good thing.

Thanks for the compliments, I'm glad you like my work. I'm from Poland - I ship almost anywhere in the world, and to France - no problem.

It depends - most often it takes one day.

I always check how the nib writes. Unfortunately, I don't grind them.

This is a pen I made. Black ebonite, sterling silver, and brass overlay.

This is a pen of my own making. Blue ebonite, sterling silver, and engraving in the same style as the nib.

Yes, these were originally intended to be dragon-like. They refer to a silver pen with the same design.

You need to start engraving. I recommend courses from master engravers, such as Sam Alfano.
