I have that pen, and it is amazing. I don't understand how, but it doesn't dry out like my other pens do, and it writes so smoothly.

I agree, it's such a nice pen. It writes so smooth. The line is on the thicker size but I'll probably buy a nib pack in the future.

I was a bit disappointed at first that their F was closer to an M, but after using it a bit, I fell in love with every aspect of that pen, including the nib thickness. At £16, it really can't be beat.

Nice, keeping it simple.

Does the knife have some kind of lock to keep it from opening in your pocket? That’s always been my fear with that style

[–] fujiwood@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Thanks :)

This is the orignal TPT which has a section to press that moves a notch allowing the blade to be moved in and out.

The newer version is the TPT Slide which was released a few years after. That one has a pressdown mechanism that then slides.

There's not a lock, but you can adjust the tension on the thumb slide and thus cause the slide to require more force to open. There's a video on how to do that here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQ-atBnbQ7k

I don't think it will open on its own in your pocket, but if you left-pocket carry, I can certainly see it opening accidentally when you're putting something _into _ your pocket.
