Overall I love Taccia's fine nib. Interesting design. At first it felt awkward, but I love the way the cap screws into the barrel when being used. The cap will never fly off. I love the weight of the pen. It has heft. I do not like a light weight pen. It is nicely balanced for my hand. It is an excellent buy. What is your opinion of the quality of this item? It an excellent pen for the money as far as I am concerned.
