    Default Hello?

    I'm a relatively recent convert to fountain pens, only 3 years ago, when I was in seventh grade. I've fallen deep into this rabbit hole, and have found a strange affinity for Sheaffer pens.

    Welcome to the forum!
    0.5mm vs 0.7mm graphite sizes is much like 9mm vs 45acp...they both work if you know what you are doing. - me

    When I was in 7th grade I really, really wanted a Shaeffer snorkel. Then when I was in 8th grade they stopped making them.

    Cool! What a great time to get into it. I just started earlier this year. I do love my Sheaffer's Balance pens. What Sheaffer's pens do you have?
