Penbbs 495 Piston Filler Unboxing and Review 2023

The new model Penbbs 495 Piston Filler is finally here! I've been waiting for this update to the Penbbs 309 piston filler for years! I unbox it, talk about the parts and features of the pen, provide some size comparisons and measurements, and then do a writing sample. After the writing sample, I talk about what I like and what I don't like about the pen. Please feel free to use the chapters provided below to skip to various parts of the review.
