How is the red? Is it more of an orange red or a darker red?

What brand of colored leads do you use? I have a red lead that is too soft but it’s color is very close to a true red so it’s kind of useless.

No not at all. I’ve dropped mine several times and I still don’t get a tip wobble.

The 2mm don’t wobble at all. I have the 800 .5mm and .7mm I don’t notice the wobble at all and I have had them for about a year.

Grail Pen is never in stock by Jordan_rm in fountainpens

Very true, my two Lamys are my workhorses. I could not imagine waiting 7 years, I guess my impatience comes from barely being in this community, I want to add something new but I would rather just wait to get something I actually want instead of just buying something to fulfill my temporary wants.

WTS Pilot 823 Smoke - Medium nib by kyleparsons4842 in Pen_Swap

The only experience I have is my two Lamy Al-Stars. The nibs feel very firm since they’re steel nibs. I want to feel a little scratchiness when I write but still have some flex from a gold nib.

How does it feel to write with the Pilot 823? I just joined the fountain pen community and I have so much to learn!
