This pen is practically impossible to photograph well because the pen body, clip, and gold disk on the finial reflect everything in the room (including my head and my camera).All the pen’s accents are gold plated, which gives the otherwise mundane design a classier look. Mmmm, I’m drooling.
My first was a total impulse buy. . It's absolutely fine for normal daily writing. It doesn't soften with use. That seemed to help for a minute, but then the hard starts came back (probably one every 15 to 20 words).I decided to flush the pen and give it some fresh ink, and that’s when I noticed that the ink was almost out. U. All of them are fine as a daily writer.My experience is the following: If your don't flex it, the feed is no problem. Wish it had more ink capacity though.

PS: I have no intention of even semi-flexing my Falcon or the CH91. I haven't taken notes by hand for more than 10 years (I'm a relatively fast typist and am way into mechanical keyboards) but for some reason I can't stop looking at pens!Anyway, I am looking to make my a big purchase and would really appreciate some advice from someone who owns or has owned both a Pilot Custom 74/91 AND a Falcon both in Soft-Fine.Does the Falcon SF have more 'give' than a Custom 74/91 SF (I am 100% aware these are not flex or even semi-flex and don't intend to flex them)?I noticed that the Falcon nib is oddly shaped and is thinner so I can see how it MAY have more give... but from my research I am finding a lot of mixed responses. I can tell you the following though:It doesn't soften with use.
Have you ever had a dream for a long time and then, when the dream is realized, things aren’t what you dreamed them to be? All the magic is in the nib. Now I do, but now it’s called a Pilot Falcon.

It’s amazingly wet and if I leave the cap off it still writes after about 20 mins! At the standard no more than 20% off through Pilot USA distributed dealers, I'd get the Falcon unless I just had to have the larger con-70 ($152 vs $160).
I was looking to pick up a 912 with a PO nib because it is different from anything that I have now, but was having second thoughts and thought that I would pick up a Falcon in SF instead if people found it to be even springier than the CH 91 in SF.From your experience, I guess there's not that much of a difference, and I can see the benefit in being able to use a Con-70 in my CH91.

It works! This is one beautifully put-together pen.Way up inside the cap is a plastic insert that seems to align with the forward lip of the section.
What you do get is a 14k gold nib that does something most nibs can’t do: provide legitimate line variation when you want it, while giving a wet and consistently fine line when you don’t. It has a somewhat narrow grip section (just under 10mm). It reminded me of a Japanese sword.
