Just watched Dr Brown's review on the Waldmann Tango FP and must say I'm intrigued. (Actually, just added a Waldmann Edelfeder to my wish list.)
My local B&M store doesn't carry their FP, only a ballpoint. I was wondering if any fellow geeks here have had hands-on experiences with FPs from this brand. Would you agree with Dr Brown's assessment? How does it compare with Yard-O-Led, Caran d'Ache or other silver/similar pens?
The price seems reasonable. The pen looks good. However, there is something in the company's logic that I can't really understand. For example:
- Why wouldn't they include a converter with the pen? Starting from well above 100 euro, these are not your cheap knock about pens. The packaging looks really nice, yet they skip on the essentials? Not very German IMHO.
- Why would they fit a fine guilloche sterling silver pen (surely a luxury item) with a plain-looking steel nib? Dr Brown's praises on the quality of the steel nib is comforting though.
Your thoughts?
