The filling system is very interesting and the fact that it's a demonstrator makes it even better. I'm also excited about the click pen, but will probably wait for them to be tried out for a while before I buy one. Great blog by the way! Keep up the good work!

]]> Comment on Aurora 88 Large Fountain Pen – The Awesome Review by Tanalasta http://fpgeeks.com/2012/02/aurora-88-large-fountain-pen-the-awesome-review/#comment-3734 Tanalasta Wed, 22 Feb 2012 22:04:29 +0000 http://fpgeeks.com/?p=4987#comment-3734 Great review. The tooth of an aurora nib is from a rougher grit used in final polish. You can replicate the feel on any other nib by roughening it up on some micromesh (one or two grades from the finest one and a few strokes only). Conversely you can do what binder did and polish the nib on the finest micromesh grade into a smooth one. Personally I appreciate the tooth is inherent aurora and kept it Great review.
