Only problem is i cant find one identical on the net anywhere, but i know it's genuine because it has all the genuine markings. maybe it's a custom or even a limited edition? The diamond is impressive...

You are a brave lefty to use a fountain pen, they were disasterous for me, but I am also a hand dragger for want of a better expression.

Perhaps look up a pen forum, actually don't, the owner might find you. But maybe a pen shop might help. I don't mean the local stationers or newsagents obviously before Mick suggests going to the local fourbouys, or whatever.

How about Knuckle Dragger?! I reckon that might fit better!

I wouldn't suggest that, I've tried that option and failed...several times...same newsagents...I've moved on to trying more fraudulent means, like claiming things that were found, but weren't mine to start with...With about as much success come to think of it.

At least dragging my knuckles means I don't have to shave them.
I was thinking a pen dealer might be able to give some info on the pen, that was all.

Sorry Ed, I was actually poking fun at myself in my reply to that. It just read wrong I think.

I'm pretty sure Mick may make a good point, I recall a thread on the fountain pen network (all one word) talking of fountain pens for lefties, and quick drying ink can be a solution...

I abjectly reject that good sir. I have not yet once, made a point good enough, to satisfy my love of all things sharp!

You make good, solid points all the time, you're a good 'leveler' ...
