A long time mechanical pencil user, I recently purchased my first fountain pen. It's a cheapie - a Lamy Safari "Vista", with a converter. I figured I might give one a go and see if I like using it.
Fountain pens had never been a serious consideration, due to me being left handed. Now, I no longer have a problem with smudging, I see it as part of my writing, not to be avoided. That has freed me up to explore the use of a fountain pen.
I like the resistance of a pencil on paper, my writing improves when using one. So out of curiosity, I decided I'd try a fountain pen for the same reason.
.... I'll always like my Staedtler Mars 780C 2mm clutch pencil, though.
Cheers 👍
