Custom made to order silver fountain pen (~1 oz of silver, nice hefty weight to it) with 14k gold nib (lemmy.world)

Ordered this made from a then-fellow Redditor a few years ago, haven’t come across anything that writes better yet. I’ve found the extra weight helps increase the legibility of my handwriting.

Old fashion pen... Old language... Nice

Gorgeous, and of course there's a long history of solid silver overlays/barrels. Where did they source the nib, if you don't mind my asking?

I don't mind, but I have no idea. It was all discussed in Reddit dm's and I've long since deleted that account.
