Fountain pens

xmacro

So it seems one gentlemanly pursuit leads to another; first guns, then cigars, then DE shaving, and now I'm looking into fountain pens - anyone have them? Why do you like it/not like it? Any recommendations?

you mean old fashioned, dip in the well, fountain pen?, Squirt tube, or just quality writing instrument?

Quality writing instrument; the non-ballpoint kind, but the kind with the nib

+1 on the mont blanc. Fantastic pens, also $$$$. But you won't be disappointed.

By a G2 pen.... By a Mont Blanc refill... Shave a little bit off of the plastic end off of the Mont Blanc refill and it fits in a G2........ $2 pen now writes like a $200 pen... Frikkin' sweet....

Montblanc pen is made of a natural resin and has a great weight balance when used.

Just tried writing with my new fountain pen and ink - very cool. It's really elegant, and the pen just flows across the paper, no pressing required; plus, my typical chickenscratch even looks better like this - makes me wanna write better so my handwriting will look like the old time scripts. I could get to like this new hobby

skilcraft B3 aviator pen..... I use this day in and day out. It's a black pen, red pen and pencil with an eraser. Its made of some kind of super strong metal. Best pen i've ever used in my air force career. It's a little pricey but worth it! Google it and you'll see.
