Thanks for the review. I felt drawn to this pen.

I does remind me of the Campo Marzio Ambassador somewhat in shape and thickness of the acrylic.

I see what you mean. Very often today's acrylic pens seem to have an over engineered quality to their pattern creation. While that does lead to a much higher standard of re-productivity it also means that the pens themselves loose some of their personality. That does not seem to be the case with these new Conklins. This pen so clearly outclasses others in its' price-range I believe both it and the new Durograph are going to be remembered as items that you either count yourself lucky for getting when you could or kick yourself for missing out on.

Thank you for your post!
