   so the package survived the rain, and it's the PO and WA !fpens grinds i ordered from fpnibs. wa~i
   
   haven't tried the WA yet, but the PO was pretty on point (lol). ink flow is minimal, actually didn't feather on the shitty sketchbook i've gotten half a year ago, lets me write stuff really small, etc. all coherent with what i've heard about this nib type
   
   only gripe is that it's not too smooth compared to, say, a normal fine nib, but i guess at that point size not catching the paper on upstrokes is already considered smooth? who knows

     i might actually end up selling my lamy2k knockoff since it isn't really doing much for me…like ok cool it's a demonstrator L2k but there's otherwise nothing to write home about.

     similarly underwhelming is the parker 45 but my grandfather gave me that so it's going to stay. haah

     i'll probably just hold on to them and use the same 3 pens out of my 9 for my EDC..

     3 days later on the PO !fpens nib
     
     gotten used to the feedback, no i won't really call it scratchy. really liking how i can write on crappy paper and having the ink behave. initially i thought i wouldn't like really thin points because shading isn't as obvious but i think this is an exception
