Monteverde Invincia Chrome Carbon Fiber Fountain Pen - Black | Premium Writing Instrument for Professionals & Collectors | Ideal for Office, Gifting & Calligraphy

Just received the Invincia Stealth in the mail and gave it its first test run. After a solid several minutes of testing it out, I've got to say that I couldn't really be any happier!The pen is beautiful. It has a good, solid heft to it and feels extremely well made. Solid metal construction, with that amazing oversized nib (one of the things that really sold me on this pen in the first place!). It's glossy, so it will pick up smudges or fingerprints, etc., and that jet black glossy look makes dust really stand out on it as well. Not a problem for me, personally. I've seen a lot of people (not just here on Amazon) talking about how the cap just will not post at all, but that definitely isn't the case for me. The pen posts perfectly, and even has an audible click when posting. Haven't had any trouble with it coming unposted or anything.The sheer weight of the pen is fantastic, but I could sort of see it resulting in fatigue in people that aren't open to such hefty pens. You could always leave it unposted too, but much of the heft is still there. Personally, I love it. Just make sure you're in the market for a pen that puts some weight on your hand when writing.Writing with the Invincia Stealth is fantastic. Do note though, that the medium nib is certainly more like a traditional fine nib. It isn't a super wet pen, but I have yet to encounter any skipping whatsoever. The nib is super smooth, although I have noticed that mine gets a bit scratchy when writing particularly fast, but it's not that unpleasant. Just an observation. I will probably end up ordering a stub nib for it, and maybe even a broad nib as well sometime in the future. The pen came with the converter seated inside, empty. It also includes a few ink cartridges (which are very small, mind you), but I made sure to pick up some Noodler's Bulletproof black ink as well. The two work wonderfully together.I only have two other fountain pens. One, a Lamy Safari, was a gift, and I've had nothing but problems out of it. The other is just some Sheaffer pen I picked up at Michael's for $6 (which, ironically, writes beautifully with its stub nib!). I just got a new job and decided to splurge on this pen, and I'm very glad I did! If you're looking for an amazing, sleek, extremely well-made fountain pen but don't want to spend a huge amount of money on it, I would strongly recommend the Invincia Stealth!
