It was perfect... until it was absolutely useless
Right after I bought this pen I carried it every day and used it regularly at work for about half a year. It's really well made, light weight and a lot of fun to use and play around with. However the bad omen started when I began to notice that the bolt handle had a tendency to unscrew itself - even with sensible use i.e. without fidgeting around with it. Well just last week it actually unscrewed itself completely (while clipped in my back pocket) and the bolt handle disappeared. Missing this bolt handle renders this expensive pen completely useless, so I can only give 3 stars maximum as a fatal flaw like this shouldn't exist at this price point. Of course I could have put some loctite on the threaded end but in my experience this shouldn't be necessary (my other bolt action pens don't need it either). So apart from this, the rest is pretty much perfect. Only nitpick would be that the pocket clip is very stiff.
