Mini Review Elegant Beauty-Berea VS CSUSA

Thanks for the detailed comparison. Knowing the lengths is a key detail. I think the transmission location is the other key thing. I too think the sierras are a bit sloppy at the nib/barrel connection.

I like the slightly smaller size of the Dayacom Elegant Beauty, this makes the pen distinctive. The finial and transmission are very cool. I like the way the pen operates. I just find the gold colour to be a little too orange for my liking. The titanium finish is perfect.

Great review. I am awaiting my shipment from Berea on the EB.

Thank you for reviewing these two pens.
I appreciate the way you presented it.
The pictures made all the difference.

Rick, I gotta say when I first saw the title of this thread (Berea VS CSUSA) it sounded kinda cheesy, comparing one vendor to another BUT after reading your review I can see that we are really talking about two distinct pens with similar looks and identical names.

Thanks for pointing that out and I'm glad I read this! Had I not read it, I would have assumed they were identical kits.

Have made only the Berea version of the EB, and I must say I like it. Have not made the other version. What I like on the Berea kit is that I can turn a blank and later decide if it goes to be a Sierra or a EB - neat. Sold a few of the EB's at a show in October and got a lot of good comments by customers.

I didn't realize there was that much difference either. I will have to try CSUSA's shorter size. THANKS for noting the difference to us!
