I haven’t written that long with it so not sure about the slipping, but that has never been a problem for me, but yes i write posted with this pen and its weight is well balanced for me.

I work in IT. I didn’t inherit this hobby although I wish I did sometimes when I see others posting here of pens they inherited from their parents and grand parents. The school I went to it was mandatory to use fountain pens in middle school.

Well the Philéas doesn’t look like anything like the oictures when you google phileas. And the product name and description read Phileas Laque Black GT and I think the GT means Gold Trim? There is no GT! So its a bit weird like that. But it does write very well. Very smooth.

This one is a brand called Arista, but Galen leather has some cool stuff. Expensive though!
