    I like the military flair, and the relatively consistently-sized line weight / width. What makes this your favorite?

      Truth be told, I am actually pretty new to fountain pens and have to go pretty cheap. This is the first pen I have that’s actually got parts and inks available to purchase online. Plus it’s perfectly sized for my tiny baby hands. It looks adorable when I clip it through the rings of a notebook.

    If it’s from St. Louis Art Supply, chances are that pen was tuned by their fountain pen specialist before it went to you. Regardless, I hope it gives you a ton of joy to write with.

      You’re correct! I went there in May while on a trip with family. And it already has given me a ton of joy.

    Celebrate the things you have and enjoy more than the pursuit of new possessions. It is an excellent fountain pen

    Be honest. Did you write the Shavian just hoping someone would remark on it? Like I just did?
