kind of obsessed with the pressure sensitive buttons on the dualshock 2 & 3

haven't inked it yet (the nib unit should be the same as every other majohn A-series anyway), but

  • you can extend it by pushing the… pusher, but you can only retract it by twisting the twister
  • the twister has a really long throw, maybe ≈270°, so while you might be able to do it one-handed it's not easy or obvious how
  • this particular one only came with the (installed) refillable cartridge and metal shield rather than the converter + 2 refillable cartridge + tiny plastic eyedropper/pipette that's come with I think every other majohn/moonman capless clone I've bought
  • the balance point is significantly farther back (and it feels heavier overall but I don't have a scale to check) than an A1, which I'm guessing is just the added weight of the twist mechanism
  • clip seems like it might be a good balance between having a clip, having some tactile reference for which way is "up" on the nib while writing, and not having the clip in the middle of your grip. but I like the clip grip on the regular A1/vanishing points anyway so I can't say for sure
  • clip also seems really tight, maybe just because it's short and there's not much leverage

debating whether I want to put monteverde erinite in it or maybe go with something more subdued like a gray, so I'm gonna go think about/look at my inks now
