I was not impressed with the M800 nib. Mine had Baby's Bottom and was misaligned. For the price it should have been a perfect writer. It was not. The only Pelikan pen i have is the M205 with a steel nib which is excellent.
There used to a down time for Pelican QC, around 2010 for 5 years. Now it's improved. But again, all German brands are with more symbol value than function value, given Chinese is offering 18k #6 under USD70.
