This is really an extra-fine nib. As a left hander, it has been difficult getting a good fountain pen. This one has been awesome. The 0.3 mm line makes it a true extra-fine nib.
The ink provided can be a little blotchy on cheap paper. However, it works very well on good quality paper like Levenger notebook refills.
This is a good buy for the price point.

Wordsworth and Black fountain pens are worth every penny. They ate attractive and stylish. Ink cartridges are easily installed and pen writes smoothly- no skipping or ink blots. Plus it comes with warranty. I purchased a cheap one and returned it the same day. The adage you get what you pay for really fits here.

I bought two of these products when one was lost in the mail and I did not expect it to be found. Instead, both showed up and I can honestly say I'm happy with purchase regardless of the duplicate. The Company reached out to me asking for a review of my purchase so here it goes. The pen is a weighty and feels good in the hand if the cap is kept on the desk. If the cap is stuck in the back of the pen, it drastically shifts the balance making it too back heavy for comfortable writing in my opinion. The smooth finish feels wonderful in the hand and the color pairing of green and silver is visually pleasing. The pen writes smooth as butter if you use the ink cartridges included in the package. While it will accept international universal cartridges, I have found these drain far quicker than the Wordsworth and Black ink cartridge and does skip while the Wordsworth and Black does not. It could be the Dryden ink cartridges I bought have a thinner ink in them or the medium nib on this pen allows the ink to flow faster so I won't blame the pen for this. Overall, I am very happy with this purchase and the only thing I can remove a single star for is just because of how the cap so drastically unbalanced the pen if it is put on the back of it. That is my preference so I know where my pens cap is and don't risk losing it off a table or in my lap when writing.

*Update* I have now owned this pen for 6 months. I have only had to clean the nib twice thus far. The ink you recieve with the pen lasts longer than dryden ink capsules but have a much wetter flow and tend to bleed through far more frequently. The wetter flow also means bolder letters but they aren't as clear or legible. Still, this pen has held up very well and use it frequently when writing letters to my grandfather

It's been quite long since I bought a fountain pen and I was not very confident. This one is really really a good purchase.
During our school days we were almost forced to use fountain pens to improve our writing and therefore we have worked with pens whose nibs had to be used in one certain way to smoothen out over months. Those were typical 'entry level' pens (you can get 5 of them in one $). I remember when the nibs became smooth, we got the speed back. After few years of such 'lessons' we could get introduced to the 'fancy' pens and appreciate them.
This is one such pen which I appreciated from the very first write. It was that awesome feeling of smoothness which I was not really expecting from a new pen. The packaging is perfect and the 6 cartridges make it even better an experience. I'm not talking about casual writing as I was finishing those cartridges in around 2 days each. I waited for all the cartridges to get over (and then some more days) to write this review.

I also like the fact that it comes with the converter. It's way safe that way as we don't have to stick to costly refills all the time. I have not tried it out yet (need to buy some ink first) - although it fits perfectly.

I'd highly recommend this pen. Especially for the people who have used fountain pens for a long time. I'm not a collector of pens so I can't suggest from that angle, and it's a viewpoint of a user. If you're looking for a pen that you want to use every day, and you want that smooth experience of a fountain pen, this is undoubtedly the one to try out. I'm sure going to buy at least 1 more for myself. For a collector, the usability is probably secondary and maybe the history is more relevant. But for a user, it matters whether I can carry the pen confidently everywhere to use it.

To add, I loved this color. I like the range of colors available, including a hot pink (a good candidate for gifting to my sister).
I'm sure you'll feel the balance of weight being very good and comfortable. It 'feels' like you're holding something significant and at the same time it's so well balanced. I like the overall design of the pen and the locking mechanism of the cap (which is so important for a regular user).

A very worthy buy. I'd highly recommend. Amazing nib. Very pleasurable writing device for sustained use.

Update - 11-1-20: Two items to update:
1. Replacement pen arrived yesterday evening. Used it with the converter this morning and my Waterman Serenity Blue Ink and it writes beautifully. As well as the last pen wrote before continuously running out of ink. All other positive comments from my original post apply - wonderful pen in the hand, and on paper.
2. Customer Service at Waterman& Black - excellent customer service. THe problem with the 2-day initial reply process is that Waterman & Black Customer Service is in China. TIme difference applies. They read my issue and immediately told me that they were sorry this happened, had a couple of hints on cleaning the pen to clear any blockage (which shouldn't be an issue with a brand new pen), AND informed me they were sending a replacement pen with their apologies. I informed them that I had already returned the faulty pen and had another one coming to me via Amazon. Amazon - one day replacement - THANK YOU. As far as Waterman & Black, I provided my input as to what I believed the problem MIGHT have been - a blocked ink flow tube from material associated with the plastic cartridge that I used first with the first pen. As I said here, I used the replacement pen first off with the converter and my ink bottle and it performs flawlessly. The cartridges they use are thick at the end that goes into the pen barrel toward the head. I don't know the design/style of their piercing/cutting mechanism, but I believe there is a chance a piece of the cartridge blocked the ink channel that prevented flow of ink by gravity, as I could get it to flow only by screwing down the converter barrel plunger every half a page.

In any event - we'll see what Waterman & Black say about that. But in the end, I have a functioning pen with the converter. IF Waterman & Black send me another pen as they said they will, I will use a cartridge after verifying proper operation with the converter, to see if the pen experiences an ink flow failure again. I'll stay in touch about the level of customer service to follow up with investigating possible issues with their pens/cartridges.

I've used fountain pens a lot throughout my life. I find using them to be artistic and enjoy the feel of good ink flowing on to paper with a quality pen. I purchased this particular pen based on reviews and the color/nib color based on personal preference.

My nitial impression of the quality, heft, feel, and balance of this pen in my hand was 'outstanding.' I ordered the additional package of cartridges, and a bottle of Waterman 'Serenity Blue' ink to round out my purchase and happily loaded a blue ink cartridge to see how well it performed.

WIth ANY new fountain pen, you have to prime it to begin writing because there's no ink in the nib to pull ink from the chamber/cartridge downward. I shook the pen down to force ink toward the nib to begin writing - nothing. I shook harder, now over paper towels because of the expected large drops to fly out - nothing. I shook it downward vigorously - nothing. I removed the barrel and SQUEEZED the cartridge to force ink into the nib. The cartridge is much more sturdy that the old cartridges I've used in the past - nothing.

I removed the cartridge and checked to ensure it had been pierced - it had and I could squeeze ink out of it. I discarded the cartridge and inserted the converter into the pen head to use the bottled ink from Waterman. I used the converter and pulled a full cartridge worth of ink into the pen from the nib in the ink bottle.

I began to write. AHA!!! I was rewarded with a beautiful line of ink and I the pen felt like it was gliding over my paper - laying down a beautiful line of ink, and my handwriting felt like it was being rewarded for my efforts to make nice loops, gentle curls, and exact punctuation. I was happy now ..... for about one-half of one page. The ink began to flow slower, until finally it stopped altogether. I had to unscrew the barrel from the head and using the converter screw-plunger apply pressure to the ink inside the converter to push ink into the nib once again.

I began writing again and was rewarded once again with a beautiful writing experience ... for one-half of one page. Same story - same result - same corrective measure ......... I wrote to the company in the hopes of some 'insider' information about possible causes of this problem. No answer for two days - in the middle of the week.

It's a fountain pen, not a new tech piece of complex industrial electronic or mechanical equipment designed to make my life better. It's a fountain pen, and it simply doesn't work. I purposefully avoided fountain pens that were relatively inexpensive because I thought "If I pay a little more, I'll get a little more." Apparently that idea is incorrect in today's world. I cannot afford a Mont Blanc. I used to use the old standard fountain pens that had the cartridges you used in the caligraphy sets made by the same company ... never had a problem with those pens, but thought they were 'baseline' pens and perhaps I could get a better writiing experience with a pen from a manufacturer that seemed to be a 'cut above.' It seems this company has a fancy website and great product photography and marketing - but nothing more.

The pen doesn't work, and they won't respond to an outreach for assistance. I'm returning the pen, and will seek another that simply works for now. Once again, in today's age, I must lower my expectations of the products that are available. WHY can't I find a quality product? I don't mind paying extra for QUALITY, but that term seems to mean little anymore.
