For sale is a 2013 Special Edition Pelkian M1005. This pen features an all black body with rhodium trim and a full rhodium nib.

The enormous 18k gold nib was custom ground by Marc Bacus aka "the Nibgrinder" into a Fine Cursive Smooth Italic. It provides good line variation while remaining smooth and easy to write with. The big nib is very soft which increases line variation even more. It's juicy, wet writer - good thing the piston filler has a huge ink capacity.

Gorgeous Pen in pristine shape but no box. Asking $525 PayPal FF. This price includes shipping via USPS First Class, upgraded shipping can be negotiated. Open to trades for Nakaya or Full Size Sailor Pro Gear (with cash to even out value).

The photo with the nib needs to be reshot. It looks like the Rhodium plating has gold showing through.

That's just the reflection of my hand... I'll see what I can do.

Your word about the condition of the Nib should be good enough. I wouldn't worry about it.
