Brause Calligraphy Nib Holder Natural Wood

Nice feel.

Overall, this is a great straight pen, especially for the price. It has a good weight to it which helps keep it balanced. I have 2 that I'm using with a Hunt 22b and a Gillott 707 and both fit perfectly. For those who care, my pen was the color shown in the picture. I personally don't care that much about color (especially at this price point), but I saw a few one star reviews because the wood on some pens was lighter than some people had expected. I hope Amazon only takes the overall rating into consideration, which I gave 5 stars for. I gave 3 stars for begging just because sometimes a straight pen is harder to use than an oblique pen for beginners.

購入して１回、１～２時間、書き物をいたしました。翌日には、写真の通り、外側の木目調のものが割れて、はがれ、使えなくなりました。原因は不明です。書く上では特段、問題なかったので残念です。

The price on Amazon was cheaper than I have seen anywhere else. The metal to hold the nib holds the brause ef66 fine but I wouldn’t recommend if you are going to be swapping and adjusting the metal petal multiple times, the petals look a little flimsy.

I couldn't expect it would look like the photo, as wood products vary in grain pattern wildly, but was a lighter color of wood than I had expected. Other than that, it seems sturdy, is lightweight and well balanced, and has a very nice gloss finish on it. Use this in conjunction with the similar one I got in the manuscript roundhand nib set I had bought. This is a beautiful natural wood product with a nice protective finish. Very comfortable to hold. Would buy again
