== Parker Refills ==


'''Brad Dowdy:''' Okay. I'll have to look at it. But like European G2 or international G2, I should say, is your Parker refills. Yeah. That would be my guess is what this is, but it says Pilot G2, aka Schmidt Euro. That's not necessarily accurate. So we'll look at it. I'll have to look at this refill. I didn't, this is the first time I'm noticing that. So we'll see.

'''Myke Hurley:''' But yeah, the Schneider Top Ball, Schneider Top Ball 850 is actually a really good refill. It's very close to the P18, is it 1825? 8127. Oh, you're so much better than me. The one that's in the Retro 51. It's very close actually. Yeah.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Okay. I mean, and Schneider makes great refills. So yeah, I'm just not familiar exactly with this one. So we'll take a look at it.

'''Myke Hurley:''' But basically, the pen is really, really nice to hold. You have to hold it a little bit higher than I normally would because it's got kind of like the, I can't, I can't, I don't know how to explain it. The ridges near the nib, like near the tip where the cap clips on. That's not very comfortable to hold. So I've been holding it kind of on the wooden section and it's perfect to hold that way. It's just a little higher than I would normally hold a pen. Right. And I'm sure that some people would be able to hold it by the little metal, like the tip and will be fine. But my hands are maybe a little bit too big for that. But I found the wooden part to be very comfortable to hold on to. And I've been using it a bunch and it comes in a little leather case, like a little leather slip case. I'm so happy to own this thing because it's beautiful.
