First time buying from Inventery and also first time buying a pen this expensive. I had issues when the package got stuck at my country’s customs and they werent responding properly (very odd situation. DHL customer service was useless. Still no idea what the issue was). Brian was so helpful in getting the issue solved and got the package to me before i left home for travel. Quick responses and action from him. Also, the pen is fantastic. Feels good, looks beautiful and writes really well. It feels sturdy unlike cheap ink pens or even fancy pens with cheap pen tips and refills. All in all, super happy with my purchase!

the pen the plastic around the tip is bend

The pen writes very well. It will take a short time for me to use the latch to release the nib, overall a great pen.

Perfect. That's all.

This pen and its stand are the perfect combination of look, feel, and functionality. The machined steel, combined with the polycarbonate grip, creates just the right balance of added weight while writing and smoothness in the hand. The bolt-action mechanism is incredibly satisfying.

This was the first pen I spent serious money on and glad I did. Fantastic build qualtiy and looks amazing. I have the polycorbonate version with stand and the feel is great. The individual serial number is a nice touch as well.

The perfect pen ! Love it

First off, I do want to say I love the pen overall. I've used nice pens before and really dig my small collection of Lamy fountain pens. This Schmidt p8126 refill is incredibly smooth and I love writing with it. For the pen itself, I do appreciate that the overall look and feel. I think if the body was entirely composed of a non lightweight metal it'd be too heavy for my preferences. However, I won't say that's a con since that falls more under personal preference.

I had just a few issues with this pen:

First, the lower and upper halves weren't flush. As such, you can feel a small bite from the metal if you're moving your hands/fingers up and down the body of the pen where the two halves are joined. It's not a huge one but it is quite noticeable. I tried to fix it by squishing the lower metal end toward the right direction to see if I could sort of bend or form it better. I was able to fix it slightly using that method.

Second, the metal internals of the pen are scraping the polycarbonate body quite a bit. I think it'll smooth out over time but every time I go to extend the tip to write, the metal internal piece holding the refill scrapes the inside of the polycarbonate body a fair amount. I'm starting to build up some shavings/powder inside from this and you can visibly see where the metal internals have scraped the PC. Maybe adding a chamfer to the internal metal piece could have helped alleviate this?

Third, One other thing that falls a little more under personal preference, I really wish the logo at the top of the pen was aligned with the clip.

For a company that says seems to suggest it is hyper focused on the details, I was hoping for a little better in that regard when it came to these three things. However, I do still want to say that overall I still love this pen. I also really dig that it's Asian-American owned and partner with an Asian-American for the design being Asian-American myself. I'll still root for this company and am curious about trying one of their lightweight metal pens in the future. I'm assuming I wouldn't see the scraping issue with an all metal build.

Nice pen, beautiful build quality. I wish the stand extended a little more so as to hold the pen perfectly vertical

I really love the look of this pen, and the writing experience feels excellent. The only issue I’ve run into is with the stand, when placing the pen in a fully vertical position, I have to press down for it to sit correctly. This causes some of the white coating on the inner edges of the stand to flake off. I imagine the stainless steel version of the stand wouldn’t have this problem since it doesn’t rely on a coating.
