Depending on the pressure applied while writing, it can write ticker on thinner lines thus it will produce and amazing line. Very smooth and non-scratchy nib. The purple ink window is simply stunning. Golden logo located on top of both pens. Piston is very smooth and takes considerable amount of ink. These MK pistons were the peak of piston technology by Pelikan. The piston has 8 parts. This was meant to keep the ink always in place, also to be able to be used in different pressure variations like airplanes and so on.
