A good functional eyedropper pen. A bit fatter than I find ideal for my personal taste, but still comfortable enough to hold. I like the medium nib, which writes quite smoothly and is on the finer side of medium, good from my point of view. I find this easier to fill with a syringe and a long blunt needle than with the included eyedropper. Every now and then, when writing at greater length, it's useful to crack the vent on this to give the flow a boost. Attractive enough without being in any way fancy; I got it in the brown. Holds a lot of ink, although I neglected to measure how much I put in on the first fill. This makes a good pen for work, where I want good performance and high ink capacity, but may not want to risk one of my nicer vintage pens.

Medium nib is not too broad for my taste, and I'm usually a fine nib guy. Works great! Smooth writer. Nice ink capacity. Love the look too.

I love this pen, but I wish I had purchased a fine. I did not anticipate how juicy the nib would be.

This is a very nice pen and a value for the money. I purchased with a replacement stub nib. It was a cheaper make of nib and I have had some problems with the writing with this nib. The nib that came with it a medium Opus was great. Nice sized pen too.

The Picnic holds a lot of ink which works well with the broad nib in my pen.
