Vintage-Nibs

Excellent condition, looks close to new. Writes super smooth and juicy. It is a broad 18k nib, which probably lends to its smoothness. It also has some softness as you can see in the picture and is capable of some line variation. (sorry about the smudge on the The at the beginning) as you can see with the large amount of little lines that there aren't hard starts.
However as I did my zig zag test (zig-zagging as fast as my hand can possibly move) you can see that there is a bit of ink deprivation, but if you are writing that fast you might as well just throw ink onto the paper (haha). If you check the ink smear test at the bottom of the paper it's pretty juicy.
The body is truly spectacular. The celluloid is warm and this matches the warmth and depth of the orange spotted body. The gold trim certainly certainly makes sure that while not garish, it shows that this pen is of high quality and as such, cost. Nice and girthy, well fitting in the hand and tasteful.
The edition number is 364/365 and the nib is Broad
I'll also include a full bottle of aurora black ink with it.
Looking for 550 , a price that recent other 365's have been sold for
