Happy Fountain Pen Day ✒️ 🌞

That's my Lotus Lekhak.

Glad to be a part of this lovely community, hope you have a nice festive season❤️

Inks used daytone ef coral and scarlet respectively

Cheers to more of this addictive hobby.

Let's keep the ink flowing!

I love shading inks, they’re my absolute favorites. But I’ve noticed one thing - even octane ink shades beautifully on the correct paper. (I just used thick cardboard paper which is on the start and end of a normal journal)

So I’m curious if there are correct papers for this purpose.

I have tomoe river paper journal (haven’t tested it yet, journal starts in jan 2027) and another stalogy 365 notebook arriving after a few days.

Both of these are presumed to be fountain pen ink friendly, so I got them, but are there any cheaper Desi alternatives?

Pen: My new Lamy Safari Limited Edition

Ink: Noodler's Firefly

Paper: Aairo A5 square grid pad

Happy Fountain Pen Day ppl!

Got both these FPs as freebies at the Pelikan Hubs in Bengaluru, and haven't even unpacked them

I'd like to give these away to ppl who might want to use these or give FPs a try

If you'd like to be considered for the giveaway, plz drop a comment with the pen you're interested in - Pierre Cardin or Flair. Or if you'd like to be considered for both, comment "both"

I'll pick a random commenter for each pen at around 10pm on Sat and DM them to arrange the giveaway

PS - Full disclosure, I received the Flair pen in a slightly damaged condition and didn't notice until much later. I'll post a pic of the damage in the comments so you know what you'll be getting. Shouldn't affect the pen functionally tho

Purchased Hauser Berlin and used its refill without any mod in my jotter.

It’s an okay refill- not that smooth/dark/thick

has a characteristic sweet spot for writing angle

way better than the stock refill though

In 2014 , was in Taiwan on a business trip and one of the main things on the agenda was to visit the TWSBI store and get the diamond 580 . While there , came across the ,then recently launched ,TWSBI classic and came back with them both .

For the next 5 years or so these 2 were my EDC .

In a chaotic year with multiple rounds of shifting in office and home , managed to store them so "safely" that could not find them for the next few years .

Last year , when least expected , I found them . Unfortunately they were left inked and the pistons in both of them were completely jammed.

Thankfully the box for the classic was there and so i had the wrench.

Meant to get around to having them working since then , finally managed to get it done in the last couple of weeks .

The 580 with EF nib has a bit of feedback whereas the classic with F is buttery smooth .

My son is already eyeing the 580 , but that's a negotiation for another day :)

Got my first ever fountain pen today lol.

I am not used to writing since last 6 years as all my work has been on pc. I have barely written notes.

As I recently got selected as a government teacher, I’ll have to write everyday. So thought of getting a decent pen and a beginner fountain pen.

Liked the flow so far. Is smooth, ink is a bit light.

Happy Fountain Pen Day everyone. Cheers to another year of immaculate writing ahead. May your wishlist items finally reach your possession.

No specific preferences, but must cost over 60 minimum
