Today’s unboxing features the Franklin-Christoph Model 3M in the mesmerizing Antique Glass finish—an absolute stunner for any collection! But the real magic? This pen is equipped with a Nagahara Needlepoint grind, delivering an ultra-fine writing experience that’s legendary among fountain pen enthusiasts.

This is another video in prep of trying to compile as many nibs as possible for the remake of my Ultimate EF Nib guide. The Nagahara is one that is a requirement for that video, so I am glad to finally own one. I show this pen alongside both a Platinum 3776 UEF and a Pilot 912 with a PO or posting nib to show line comparisons to those nibs which are known to be some of the finest production nibs on the market. I do a writing sample on Tomoe River 52gsm using some DeAtramentis Document Black ink.

Here is a link to the pen on the Franklin-Cristoph website.

Get ready for a truly special unboxing! Today, I’m unveiling my very first fully commissioned fountain pen: the Cerberus model from Pens by Pasquale, crafted from the jaw-dropping Bourbon and Smoke blank by Lisa Marie at Pourly Controlled. This isn’t just any pen—this is a piece of art born from the collaboration of two incredible makers, both of whom you might recognize from their past appearances on The DWRDNET Stationery Feed podcast, right here on this channel!

In this video, you’ll find:

📦 A first look at the Cerberus model’s unique design and craftsmanship
