Hi there,

 

I found this site by Google search and don't know much about the place yet! Anyhow, I signed up as I grew up writing with fountain pens only. And that means I wrote in all my exams thru' my undergrad at a furious pace with a fountain pen. So, FP is not for slow writers only. I started using a ball point pen in my adult age when started working, to make notes in rough places. Anyway, if I find some friendly touch here, I will hang around.

 

My recent purchases were several cheap models from Pilot (Metropolitan, Prera, Varsity), Jinhow, Lamy Safary, etc.. I tend to buy cheaper pens so that it does not hurt losing them. And I do loose some. Both Pilot and Lamy write really smooth - EF nib for Lamy and F nib for Pilot.

 

Thank you,

Debasis

Welcome to FPN! : )

 

While I adore my fountain pens, I enjoy anything -- ballpoint pens, pencils, rollerball pens, and fountain pens -- that writes. Of course, the flow of fresh ink is always a pleasure. ; )

Greetings!

 

:W2FPN:

...The history, culture and sophistication; the rich, aesthetic beauty; the indulgent, ritualistic sensations of unscrewing the cap and filling from a bottle of ink; the ambient scratch of the ink-stained nib on fine paper; A noble instrument, descendant from a line of ever-refined tools, and the luster of writing,
with a charge from over several millennia of continuing the art of recording man's life.

      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..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. 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
