The octagonal barrel really locks into your grip—no slipping even after an hour of sketching. The brass has this warm, solid feel that makes you want to keep it in hand.

The octagonal barrel is what sold me—my fingers don't slip even after an hour of sketching, and it balances perfectly upright in my pen cup. It's slim and precise, exactly the kind of tool that makes you want to write slower.

The brass warms up nicely in your hand after a few minutes of writing, and that slender profile makes it feel almost weightless despite the metal body. The octagonal shape keeps it from rolling off my desk, which is a small thing but I appreciate it every day.
