I don't but now you got me thinking :-D

It can be extremely satisfying, especially when you get the exact shade.

I’ve got the pen in the middle and I find sniffing the inside of the barrel extremely satisfying :-)

Which pen is that one in the middle? Looks beautiful!

It looks like Platinum 3776 Celluloid. At least mine is. It’s made of celluloid and smells nicely (of camphor).

Camphor is a good smell. I think some celluloid pens smell better than others, tbh. I have had… mixed results, lol.

It's actually a PenBBS 308 ;)

I think it looks similar: https://imgur.com/a/afZteve :-) no idea how they would look next to each other.

It really does!
