Well I bought myself a nice new pen because it has a more hefty feel and has a glass breaker for extra functionality. But it came with a Schmidt generic refill instead of a fisher. My quick unboxing and review of the pen it's self is here:

But I have since tried the pen in terms of writing and this refill is 100% garbage. The ink (when it actually writes) is more faded compared to fisher, it constantly skips while writing unlike my fisher refill and most of the time it won't even write at all (prolonged skipping) which I have never had with my fisher refill.
So my opinion of Schmidt could not be any lower right now. I have ordered a new Fisher refill for this pen and when it arrives the pen should be really extremely nice to use.
