Fountain pen?

Question

Hi, I've become interested in fountain pens recently. I want to purchase a pen, but I've no clue what to get, or even how to use it.

Can anyone recommend a decent pen for a beginner? Add some tips too and I'll appreciate it :D

Answer 1

Parker cheaper and lighter weight and smooth masquerade  in the writing

Answer 2

Get one with a 14K Gold Nib.

Both Parker and Waterman are good pens.  You should be able to find one on the Internet.

You will need a supply of Blotting Paper too and a Bottle of Ink -

I used to like Royal Blue Ink.

Answer 3

People do not write much in these days so in the event you have not noticed not many places carry the fountain pen.  At one time Cross made a fine one (still have one I purchased in 1981) also Mont Blanc is superb.  Your style will change since fountain pens are not really good for short--stubby writing and you will find yourself opening up your style.  I do all my journal entries in fountain pen...enjoy
