Do you use them?
I own one, but it fell out of use. I think I just might have to pick it up again. There is something engaging about using a fountain pen. You have to work at using them; they seem to conform to your writing style; they are an entity of their very own. Writing can be a beautiful thing.
I have a Vuarnet. My favourite inks are grey and greyish blue. (So many colours!)
