When a previous owner told me about some issues with it, I suggested sending it to me so I could take a crack at fixing it. It took a little bit of work in choosing just the right feed to tweak for flow characteristics, but once I had the one I wanted, everything else came together pretty darn nicely. As far as a nice pen goes (Ondina's is a little different color scheme than the one pictured above), this one is (in my opinion) the best of both worlds - great writer and great looks!

Please do contact me if you still wish one. Andy, I do have the steel nib version, and Rroossink has fiddle with it so it can give you an opinion on how well it writes.

The Ohio is getting pretty tough to find, even here in the states. But...let's turn to crowdsourcing for this one. Can anyone help Andy out here? If you've got a link to one that you know is for sale, please post it here so Andy knows he's got options! Thanks all, Ryan Andy, that might be a bit of a trick.
