Inexpensive Fountain Pens
pooks | Feb 13 2006
I'm interested in cheap fountain pens because the last time I had a really nice one, I lost it. I currently have a new Lamy Safari extra fine nib and I love it. The only thing I'd change would be to have a slimmer pen -- this one is a little fat for where I keep it in my planner/purse. Any suggestions for slimmer fountain pen that isn't expensive? Or for that matter, any fountain pens that aren't expensive? I'm on the waiting list for the Speeno now, but would like to know what the other options are out there. 31 Comments

Odd. I started using Noodler's Black in my Sheaffer, and I find it to be much more sluggish than the Parker Quink I'm used to. It takes noticably more pressure to get it to flow well, which means more scratching, too. I think it's worth it for the waterproof, quick drying, non-smudging features, but I do think it's a trade-off. » POSTED IN:
