“This is THE fountain pen to take with you out and about urban sketching, travelling or whatever. It’s a workhorse. Seriously. I’m really rough on pens... it’s survived me. If you could see what has befallen my other pens you’d understand that this quite the endorsement. It’s not plastic (probably why it’s survived me) so much better for our environment... if you get a kaweco (sp ?) squeeze sports converter you can fill it with whatever ink you want... and avoid cartridges. Also much better for the environment and the hip pocket. I even put carbon ink in mine (which is not officially recommended)... it survives it all. Just clean it occasionally.
Just buy it. You’ll be so happy and you’ll save yourself a bunch of money buying flimsy resin pens. Oh, and it’s pretty.
Picture shows pen after approx 1.5 years of almost daily use. N.B. I’m a Sketcher, not a photographer.”
