Italix Chaplain’s Tankard with Broad Italic Nib Review

This pen was kindly sent to me by Peter Ford of MrPen!

Alas, poor Yorick, I didn’t measure him well. That is, I gave the pen to a friend before taking measurements. In total, it is 14 cm (5.51″) long, it is 1 cm (0.39″) in diameter, and it weighs 40 grams.
