Leonardo - Dodici Midnight Primary Manipulation | Pen Venture Exclusiv

Lovely pen and exceptional service!

This pen is exquisite to behold and I often get lost in the depth and beauty of the material.

However, the real star of the show is the nib. I am not sure what magic Leonardo and Emy did, but it has quickly jumped up to my top 5 pens to use out of my almost 50 pen collection built over 15 years! It has the perfect balance of EF precision, whispery feedback and just the right amount of wetness - a real pleasure to use.

Excelling service from Pen Venture as usual - is is quickly becoming my favourite stationary store :)

Fantastic Pen!

This is a fantastic pen! First off the pen is stunning. I love the highly polished facets made from amazing Brooks acrylic. I love how the cap facets always line up with facets on body of pen. The piston works really smoothly. The number 8 nib is a stunner! This is a big pen but feels very comfortable in the hand while writing. The nib is buttery smooth. I purchased a fine nib which is on wider side of fine nib spectrum, as expected. The nib is perfect! It writes every stroke with no missed opportunities to put ink on the page. I love the ink window. I wholeheartedly agree with Emy - all piston fillers should have an ink window. I am 100% pleased with this purchase. Bravo Pen Venture for an amazing pen!!

Amazing pen

This pen is absolutely beautiful in the hand. Photos don’t do it justice. The new faceted design gives it more depth and aesthetic appeal. Feels great in the hand. The nib gives an effortless writing experience. The shopping experience was very easy and Emy makes it very pleasant. Also, buying a pen from a true and experienced pen enthusiast is always a joy. You know you’re getting a flawless pen.

Fantastic fountain pen!

This pen is just stunning in person, it's hard to capture on photograph. It is also a great fit for my hand. The nib has been tuned to my preference and glides effortlessly across the page.
This is the most expensive pen I own and I have no regrets buying it.
Many thanks go out to Emy for his lovely customer service and incredible attention to detail!

INCREDIBLE Design Even Better NIB!!!

WOW. That is how I’d describe the Dodoci Midnight. I’m admittedly a Leonardo fan to begin with, however, Leonardo and Emy knocked it out of the park with this form factor, resin, and #8 nib.

The moment I put this in my hand I was impressed at how neat this felt with all the facets. Totally different than any other pen I’ve held. I inked it with Colorverse Quasar and the first downstroke just let out a gasp of pleasure.

This Broad nib is one of the best nibs in my entire collection. It is wet, juicy, and BUTTER smooth! It competes with the Pelikan m1000. If this is how these #8 nibs are going to write, I’m going to need several more!

I have several of the Pen Venture Exclusives and Emy has outdone himself with this one.

Zoom 727

I was very lucky to find a Zoom 727 with Pen Venture. It’s similar to the iconic 707 but it’s slightly larger form makes it more usable for daily use. It’s none the worse for that and scooped an if Design award in 2004. Bizarrely, it’s discontinued now! Get it while you can from Pen Venture. My thanks to them for their great service.

Quark, xf

Skipped so much I had to replace the nib unit with parts from my storage. Quite disappointing. The cap now screws on, I preferred the slip cap. It's faster. It's working now but I won't be spending any more money on gravitas.

The Vac 2

The Vac 2 is a refinement of both the Monster and the previous Gravitas vac fillers. This is a very robust, beautifully balanced writer that will bring pleasure to even the most particular purchaser. The filling system holds just the right quantity of ink. Long writing sessions are a breeze without the risk of having ink sit in the pen for extended periods. I have used this pen extensively since it arrived and have found it to be consistent and reliable. The nib is smooth and flows evenly with the lightest of touches. I prefer this pen over the monster because of its size and balance. The Vac 2 becomes an extension of my hand, allowing me to forget its presence and locus entirely, focusing on what I am writing.

Excellent service. Love the pen. Thank you.

Substantial, reliable, and smooth

The Gravitas Vac 2.0 is an amazing tool for handwriting. The nib is smooth, distinct, and reliable, and it has some weight due to its durable materials, black aluminium/aluminum and ultem, the perfect combination of a tool which will survive most of us, still functioning if the internal vacuum piston system is cared for. I have enjoyed this fountain pen for seven days and I am pleased to say it is one of my better ones, and it is fun to use. I recommend it.

(Emy was correct: The nib has great flow, about six drops of ink will automatically flow from the nib after I have just filled it, after that no problems; tissue paper or the ink bottle under the nib until that happens is recommended, other than that: an excellent fountain pen.)
