@refrag these are beautiful, especially the one on the right. My BiL let me use his fountain pen over thanksgiving and I really liked it. Had no idea they're used outside of art these days. My only encounter with one prior to this week was in an elementary school art class, where we literally had to dip for the ink. Now I want one ... lol

@refrag Appreciate the reply and suggestion, Mike! How do you feel about how much ink these things use? The one I used this weekend felt like it was right on the border of delivering too much ink, that would cause page bleed—or make it so you can't really write on both sides of the page.

@refrag Love it when people know their gear like this. You've inspired me to do some of my own research into this, although I do really appreciate all you've shared. Curious, what's your go-to combination of the Big 3 Things™️ ?
