Pens for the left handed?
gtz | Jul 8 2007
Hi. But as I'm left handed, I brush over the freshly written ink = I get a coloured hand.:( So fountain pens seem to be no option. I'm impressed with the Fisher Space Pen. The aim is: Compact and quick drying. cheers P.S.: I have a mechanical pencil at the moment. 24 Comments

I am left handed, and I use fountain pens almost exclusively. Kim has covered it very well here! If you're interested, there are also plenty of helpful people (many lefties too) over at fountainpennetwork.com who can offer suggestions. Personally, I usually use either an extra fine Lamy Al-Star or a fine Levenger's True Writer, both of which I found to not leave ink on my hand. I've never found the size of either to be an issue, and I keep one in my pocket often. For a gel pen, I'd strongly recommend a Pilot G-2. The compact version is very small yet easy to write with, and the ink dries quickly. » POSTED IN:
