I think it’s important to disclose you did the custom grind yourself. I don’t want to sabotage your sale, but for some people (myself included), this is a big deal. It’s still a wonderful pen, but this information is important to disclose.

He is right. I did the grind myself, and that is the reason the price is so low, and while I am not a nibmeister the grind is vouched for by Barry Gabay, writer/editor of Pen World Magazine, and here are some writing samples to show the line variation and lettering and generally the handwriting produced!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181221/b25c82888c687d8342ab62aeef343564.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181221/df75f898e192c92741e229a8dd88bcf0.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181221/29a3d66bd64f569f3ae70eae92d5afcf.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181221/295005fc82c1cbd4a74312e83ec0ae3c.jpg

So it didn't sell in this thread at $350, and you're listing it again now at $420 in a new thread?
