    Default Hello all

    Hello everyone, I'm a new member here so I thought I'd introduce myself.

    I am based in London and originally from Larnaca, Cyprus.

    My curiosity with fountain pens started when I was young after seeing a couple of pens that my grandfather owned.

    My collection of pens is not to be envied, but I am happy with it. I'm here to learn and share the love of fountain pens and everything related.

    My collection is currently as follows:
    Sheaffer Prelude
    Diamond 580
    2No. Italix pens
    Parker 51 (my grandfather's)
    Parker 8450 Duofold button filler
    Narwhal Skuylkill
    Opus 88 Omar

    Hello Stephanos, and welcome to the Fountain Pen Geeks forums! Smaller than the largest pen fora, larger than some, you'll find a community of pen-centric people here, with a body of posts, reviews, and group knowledge. Mostly, you'll find people who are enthusiastic about fountain pens, and fountain pen people. It is unnecessary to have some 'enviable' collection, all your pens need to do is bring YOU enjoyment.

    Join in!








    Regards,
    Jon

    Yes, it's great to have a pen that I know he used. I had it serviced and it's part of my rotation.
