Man I love this pen. Frank Jackson gave it to me. This pen actually makes me excited to write. Anything. So odd. I guess you could say the same about any great piece of equipment. It’s my favorite fountain pen. It leaks a little but not too much. It’s the ONLY pen I have that actually helps with my legibility. You can ALMOST read my writing with this pen if I go REALLY slow and concentrate. Now, I think this pen explodes on planes, so I would pull the ink before air travel, but the canisters are small, affordable. I buy brilliant black and royal blue. Mix it up a bit. Get one. It’s called a Kaweco Sport. I thought for sure it was Japanese but it’s actually German. Mine is green which means it’s environmental which means I’m better than you……

Interesting to read this and discover the pen is German, so I shall have to look out for one in Munich.
Years ago in school I used to write with a Double Broad Nib and was heavily into Calligraphy. So much so that my art teacher said I should consider going into sign-writing. It never happened. I should perhaps check out this pen and have a go
I love the piston fill pens like Pelikan and TWSBI, with bottled ink. Parker Quink blue/black is my favorite. There’s something special about writing with a good fojntain pen.
