Wanted to share...

my latest fountain pen. This is a Yard O Led Esprit Pocket. I have a bunch of nice pens from Pelikan, Cartier, Mont Blanc, and Sailor but this little pen blows them out of the water! It's solid .925 Sterling. The barrel is coated in black lacquer and diamond cut back down into the silver then clear coated. The medium nib is unbelievably smooth and wet; the best I've ever written with. As I understand it, YOL pens are handmade in England on vintage manufacturing equipment. Please excuse the fingerprints.
