The best pen is the first one I pick up and throw at em, unless they are holding folding then it's their choice of what I have already made.

Another one for the mix....jnr Gent from Dayacom (jnr Aaron) all the benefits of a mid size pen with a full size #6 nib and not too much bling:thumbs:

The Jnr Gent and Aaron are two different kits Mark.

Yes they use the same size tubes but are marketed as different kits..

I seriously question the nibs on the roman harvest. Same with PSI and Berea products. The nib is of a lower quality.


Made by Dayacom, use a Yowo #6 nib, short convertor and very light weight, the Havana.

Also made by Dayacom, uses a Yowo #6 nib, standard convertor, the oriental dragon

I use my omega every day and writes really well better than shop bought parkers etc. Only comparing I have with kits and was a jnr gent and certainly not up to the standard of the Omega. .
