Churchman's Prescriptor - Italix brand from Mr. Pen in the UK

Ordered from Mr. Pen in the UK last Friday morning and received the next Thursday afternoon by regular post. Very fast service.

The Italix Churchman's Prescriptor with an Italic Broad Nib. It's a heavy pen with black lacquer over brass - 49 grams capped, 28 grams uncapped. One and one-quarter turn to uncap. Posts as securely as any pen I own with an audible 'snap' and takes some effort to un-post. I like that as that cap's not going anywhere unless I say so.

The nib, a broad italic, writes smoothly and has a generous 'sweet spot'. Not scratchy and with a little feedback that is forgotten quickly as it waltzes across the page from HP copy paper to Rhodia.

Paired it today with ESSRI ink so I'm feeling very British and will watch "Are You Being Served' tonight after fish and chips and a warm beer.

A classy black pen suitable for signing papers at my solicitor's office and meetings with the Prime Minister.

Tallyho!
