As someone that has never used a fountain pen before, I have found this pen to be simply phenomenal. It’s comfortable to use and easy to hold thanks to designed grip. It’s a great starter pen for those wanting to get into using them, especially with the $23 price tag (after getting it, I would have paid more). I do want to mention a few things about it:

1) it’s great for left handed people like me. Write all you want and it still won’t smear or get all over your hand like most pens or pencils.

2) it is bigger then most pens but it isn’t as bad as some may say.

3) If you want black ink, I recommend the Lamy Cartridges Refill – Black (5) T10BK. My pen came with a beautiful royal blue cartridge. Though I have found the T10BK to be a little thin, it still writes great.

4) If you’re new to fountain pens, or if you’ve used them all your life, make sure you put the cap on because this pen dries out and take a little scribbling to get it to come back.

5) If you work in retail like I do, you’ll find that there are some surfaces that this pen can’t put it but it will on most.

I highly recommend this pen to anyone, new to fountain pens or grew up using them. Order this and I guarantee that you’ll love it and not want to use a normal pens ever again.
