I like her but she’s $200

@cam probably worth it

@wallhackio yeah, I’ve always wanted a fancy pen like that but I feel like expensive pens have the same quality control issues as cheap pens and if I spent $200 on a pen and it didn’t write well I’d crash out (also I can’t justify spending that amount of money on a pen for myself, even though I think they’re worth the price because of the skilled labor and artistry required to make them)

@wallhackio I do think for that price they should be having a nib maker inspect and tune them or at least have that as an option for an additional fee cause like. that shit should write like butter!!

@cam i never thought about tryharding pens before. a whole new world has just been exposed to me

@wallhackio r/fountainpens is a dangerous place

that being said you can get started with a pretty inexpensive pen and just try out a lot of cool and pretty ink colors. some have sheen and other neat properties

@cam @wallhackio Is that your handwriting? The uppercase letters are so pretty

@vaporeon_ @wallhackio I wish, this is from the internet (I just picked organics studio nitrogen because it’s famous for its sheen, but I don’t own it because it doesn’t really play well with a lot of pens)

@vaporeon_ @wallhackio I’ll try to find a page in my planner with a good fountain pen ink demo lol

@vaporeon_ @wallhackio I don’t have very good handwriting lmao

@cam @vaporeon_ "You really think someone would do that? Just go on the internet and tell lies?"

@vaporeon_ @wallhackio WELL these were the neatest examples I could find

@vaporeon_ @wallhackio it devolves sometimes

@cam @vaporeon_ am i insane or is this perfectly decent handwriting
