Hi Matthew and welcome to FPN.

 

What is: /r/fountainpens ????

 

 

How to integrate here on the forum?

Well, just read the various suborums and topics you are interested in, and ask questions you want and give answers you can.

 

And perhaps tell us more about you and fountainpens...what pens do you have, how do you use them etcetera...

 

 

Enjoy our forum

Welcome, Matthew !

 

You have introduced yourself. That's pretty much what it takes to be integrated.

Feel free to tell us more about yourself.

What do you do, out there, in San Francisco ?

Do you write with a fountain pen ? Of with one of those "ball" things ?

What is " /r/fountainpens " ?

I have asked my questions. Now, you ask yours.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
