This pen basically solves all the issues I had with the TI ARTO EDC while adding a fountain pen feature that makes this a rare value buy from Big Idea Design. No offense but BID products are not exactly cheap. However, fountain pens of this quality is not exactly cheap either. There were no dry starts after 3 days of capped mid 80 degrees Fahrenheit room temperature. The Titanium felt a bit scratchy or "too much feedback" for my taste, but I mean that is why there was a steel nib included right? The nibs are standard Bock 250 #6 nibs, so I can swap it out if I wanted to. the pen is very modular I can pretty much take everything apart to clean it. This is exactly what my dream pen would look like. With all that said, there is a problem, not with the pen but with the accessories they are not selling on the site. If you are going to make this AWESOME pen that can use other parts, why are you not selling more nibs? It is not exactly easy to find Bock nibs in the U.S. In the end I did buy a gold nib from FPNIBs, This is just me nick picking. This is one pen I can say I would buy again and I would consider it a value buy. I mean a similar fountain pens are close to $400.
I assume this is review for the Ti Ultra
Best quality love this stuff. Very useful when I'm not carrying any of these items I need them.
I’m a big fan of your work.
I own a lot of your products,and use them on a daily basis. Thanks .
Being someone who enjoys a Coke Zero, this little patch was a must have. Top notch quality, top notch packaging, everything I expected and experienced before from a top notch company with a top notch crew.
I got the mechanical pen and now the slim bolt action pen. Got myself different inserts to try and it just became my first go to pen from now on. Incredible build, great in my hand, it just fits like a glove. Cannot recommend enough!
Got the OD green strap. Fits and looks great on my Seiko Field Sport 5.
I have purchased several items (mostly pens) from Big Idea and have never been less than totally thrilled with all of it! This Baseline Action Pen is no exception. Quality craftsmenship!
Did I really need another knife? No
Did I really want another knife? Not until I saw this beautiful paisley bastard!!
What isn't there to like - super smooth operation, feels great in the hand, slicey like a mofo and makes me look cooler than I actually am. My only complaint is the production on cool stuff/personal bank account ratio is not in alignment and I feel that you are not going to be satisfied until I am bankrupt :)
I have been putting off buying an heirloom pen for a while, afraid I wouldn't get "the one". I have always loved Big Idea's products. When this paisley special edition popped up, I knew it was "the one". Solid feel, good weight, the finish on the paisley is fantastic. Very happy with the purchase.
Fantastic protection for a delicate mechanism used by sharpie.
They want us to love 2 of the same but i can't. One is a×d PPL ideation with m390 and acid etch everything. The next verion is the paisley. Elegant with satin blade and class galore! 👌
