    Default Hello from Europe

    Hello All,

    Recently started writing with a fountain pen again after my last attempts back in my school days (not very successful and/or messy) and enjoying the experience of putting pen to paper in very digital times.

    Hoping to learn a lot more here as I have no real idea of what makes a 'good' pen/ink/paper, but reading some posts here has been invaluable in taking the plunge.

    Currently using the following:

    Pens: Kaweco Sport Skyline (black) with Fine Nib (first purchase and preferred writer)
    Jinhao 599 Clear Demonstrator with Fine Nib (bought as an ink tester)

    Inks: Kaweco Royal Blue Cartridges (smooth)
    Diamine Sargasso Sea (Currently in the Kaweco Sport, used as my daily ink at the moment)
    Diamine Jet Black Cartridges (not tested)
    Diamine Fire Embers (I admit I got it just for the bottle, not tested)
    GvFC Viper Green Cartridges (chosen for colour co-ordination and the box
    looks nice on my desk)

    Hello again to all and speak to you soon on here

    So I could have said 'Allo 'Allo as well as welcome then.

    Glad you are with us!



    I have the Kaweco Sport. Nice pen for the price, no doubt!
