    Talking Another pen forum? COOL!

    Greetings from Denver! I was searching for any news on the Lamy Safari 2014 color, and found this forum - I'm excited to see it, it's rare to find active forums anymore! I have been a fountain pen geek for about 5 years now, and have a collection of mostly budget pens (LOTS of Lamys, some Pilot Preras, and a rainbow Sheaffer I call My Precioussssss). So looking forward to hanging out here

    Another budget pen person!! Wooohooo! But be wary. There are many tempters and enablers afoot. I believe I might fall prey to some of them.

    Hey Chefz,

    Welcome to the Fountain Pen Geeks forums! Smaller than the largest pen fora, larger than some, you'll find a comfortable community of pen-centric people here, with a growing body of posts, reviews, and group knowledge. Mostly, you'll find people who are enthusiastic about fountain pens, and fountain pen people.

    Join in!








    Regards,
    Jon

    Thanks everyone. I'm always ready to enthuse about pen stuffs!! I just placed an order from Goulet Pens for their waterproof black ink sampler set and a Stillman & Birn sketchbook, and am SOOOOO tempted to get the new Lamy Al-Star BlueGreen AND/or the All-Black. I've added them to my cart and then reconsidered at least half a dozen times now. At least I know I'm not alone here!

    Oh you're not alone at all - you'll be down the same slippery slope we're all on if you aren't already! You know you want the Lamy!
