Love the way you credit out your pens Terry mentioning the nib is great as well however they all look tops I would ever like to see an expert handwritten example of writing same sentence different nibs same pen kit.

I still await how many makers of fountain pens fettle in the nibs as a practice before giving or selling.

Is fettling required I wonder? (sorry for the temporary hijacking of your post Terry) This is what a fountain pen owner wrote to me recently - a pen user, not a pen maker...

"Superb nib straight from the packet. As smooth as a baby's bottom and just the right degree of wetness. Could have better worded it I suppose, but the facts are the facts."

Great results Terry - I know these three are very special gifts for very special people, and I have no doubt they will be well received.
