This was one of my first grail pens, and it has definitely lived up to expectations. Thank you to Emy and the Pen Venture team for taking the time to help me decide on the best nib for me and then tune it to perfection. The 18k Extra Fine nib is wet and smooth while keeping a fine line with a hint of feedback.
The vacuum system and toughness of this pen have made it a perfect traveling companion so far, and it has been inked constantly since I received it.
Thanks again to the Pen Venture team for your excellent service

Stiloul arata foarte bine vizual , te invita sa il folosesti cat mai des pentru orice motiv . Penita este fina, are un flux umed, cu feedbackul caracteristic platinum, dar care este placut. Un stilou de care te poti bucura toata viata.A fost prima data cand am comandat de pe acest site si cu siguranta nu va fi ultima data. Emi a verificat stiloul inainte de a fi trimis pentru a se asigura ca este functional si am primit si un mesaj personalizat, prietenos, scris de mana. Am simtit ca fac parte dintr o comunitate, am simtit ca se poate si altfel in sensul bun. 5 stele plus din partea mea. Respect!
The Dinkey is my favorite pocket-sized model from Gravitas’ current line. I prefer it to the Quark and the Pocket for EDC. It’s an excellent pocket pen; beautiful and weighty, easy to maintain, writes smooth… the cupronickel material is gorgeous. It’s bright and polished, and the nickel coloring is dominant, but catch it in the right light, and copper tones will shine through. Truly eye-catching.
The Gravitas Pocket Pen is another answer to a question that I didn't know anybody asked. Before you aim your flamethrower my way, let me explain why I said that. The object "Pocket Pen" is such an oddity to begin with. Most people would not put an object into their pants pocket that has the potential to leak strongly colored fluid into things that should not have their color changed. Pants pockets are at a location on the body that is usually in motion in a variety of ways. The potential for damage of non-flexible items is probably highest in pants pockets out of all possible pocket locations. And yet...here we are. Gravitas Pocket Pens, for the most part, are made out of metals which are more damage resistant than plastics. The materials used have to be thick enough to resist bending and breaking while the owner's body bends and moves in ways that make structural engineers weep. And the pen has to be short enough to not interfere with freedom of movement while being carried in said pants pocket. Ben Walsh's engineering have solved those problems by making Pocket Pens out of a variety of materials that are able to survive the rigors of Pants Pocket Carry without mechanical or material failure. Keep in mind that most pants pockets also contain a variety of other objects besides a pen, and their interaction inside the pocket will lead to scratches, nicks, and marks that probably won't buff out...which is the main reason why I don't want to put a pen with a coating (paint, PVD, Anodize, DLC, etc.) in my pocket. Eventually, the coating is coming off. Some come off in a couple of weeks, some take several years, but sooner or later... So, why buy a zirconium pen that weighs 11 grams less than the stainless steel pen, and 26 grams more than an alumin(i)um pen? Because it's more scratch resistant than titanium, but still workable with industrial tools...barely. The pen is virtually flawless: the nib is smooth, ink flow is wonderful, fit and finish are awesome, the grip diameter is not too skinny, not too wide, and the micro grooves prevent finger slippage. In my opinion, grip size/shape has more influence over how well the pen feels in your hands, and how long you can write with it in one session than the weight. The only thing that couldn't be overcome is the inability to accommodate a full size converter. But there's an Entry, Sentry and Flagship pen that provide the same awesome engineering, same nib sizes, and room for a standard cartridge converter!
