Fountain pens are great to write with but have the negatives of being relatively fragile with the chance of getting ink on you. Those who love fountain pens however use them as they are such a pleasure to write with compared to any other pens.
Writing with a fountain pen is more of an event that using a biro or ball point pen, roller ball or some other alternative. There's just something about taking the cap off your fountain pen that adds to the occasion whether you post the cap or place it on your desk.
I had the misfortune to buy some roller ball pens today that claimed to 'write like a fountain pen'. Well you can be totally assured that they do not by a country mile. How foolish of me to even think that they could be considered in the same thought as being similar.
What I need is a list cost fountain pen that I can use daily that I don't worry about dropping, preferably not using cartridges though.
Does anyone have any ideas out there?
Update - so no real alternatives out there from what I have tried. I've been trying various gel and liquid ink pens but none of them have truly ticked the box, nothing can replace a lovely free flowing fountain pen. Love live the fountain pen!
