Comparison between Namiki Falcon and the Spencerian grind

The first pen I used is a stock Namiki Falcon in soft fine (ink is Diamine Oxblood). It writes fine and very wet. The second pen used is the same Falcon but modified by John Mottishaw at to his Spencerian grind.. where he grinds the nib to a needlepoint and adds flex to it. The ink is Pelikan royal blue, it is not as wet but the flow and fineness is gorgeous. You can view a more comprehensive review I did and a lot more pics on these two pens on the FPN forum:
