For
  • Distinctive filigree overlay, unusual at the price
  • Large vacuum-fill capacity
  • Shares the V-series #6 nib units
  • Oversize #8 nib
  • Vacuum fill with a large capacity
  • Turned acrylic bodies
Against
  • Metal overlay adds weight that not everyone wants
  • Same seal/threads caveats as the rest of the vacuum line
  • Large enough that it won't suit small hands
  • Limited availability outside marketplace sellers
