The Marlen Journal.
As with most of my life, my pens' nibs are extremes. I cannot stand medium nibs.
One of my newest pens is the Marlen Journal. Marlen's an Italian company, and this is the first pen I have from them. I was amused when it arrived; the pictures hadn't shown that it had glitter embedded in its already quite-girly resin. The nib is a juicy double broad (BB), and I hardly feel it when it touches the paper. I can't write long notes with it. It's meant for ostentatious signatures, and to-do lists to be tacked onto the wall.
