Is it possible to use a FP on U.S. national flights? by
Paul K
I travel with fountain pens all the time. I normally put my pen in my suit
jacket pocket (or inside my shoe) which, of course, goes through the
screening machine. I've also (in a moment of forgetfulness) have passed
through the personal screening apparatus without setting-off any alarms or
the...

How is that in the USA? Are FP considered "deadly
weapons" and have I to throw away my $1.000 FP if
they find it on me?
I've carried many fountain pens on board. In fact, back when I was
attending shows regularly, we'd carry small suitcases full of them on
board. If...

pen carrying case/pouch by
Chuck Kalus
I see many leather cases designed to carry one or two pens but they all seem
to be designed to slip into a pocket......too bulky for my taste. Has anyone
found a pen holder that can be worn on a mans belt? It could have a slot
that a belt slides thru and thus would be easily accessible, while...

Big ink??? by
Neill Currie
Strange question...
Inside many of my fountain pens there seems to be quite a bit of extra space
inside the barrel for a larger size ink cartridge/piston filler than usually
comes standard.
Does anyone know of anything that has been made that utilises the extra
capacity?? Anything that fits Parker...

teNeues notebooks by
Satan Motors
Has anyone ever tried teNeues notebooks? They've jumped on the
moleskine bandwagon, it seems. They seem a bit cumbersome, and a bit
too large for my taste, but I'm curious about how fountain-pen friendly
their paper is. Any comments?

Truly "automatic" pencil?? by
Neill Currie
So, maybe 25 years ago I saw a mechanical pencil, possibly made by Staedler
or Rotring, that was billed as "Fully Automatic". By this I took it that you
didn't need to advance the lead at all: that it maybe advanced itself by the
variance in writing pressure??
Does anyone have any recollection of...

Parker Reflex - discontinued by
Bluesea
Weel, Parker's discontinued the Reflex, a great starter/school pen for only
$7 or so.
What do I recommend now that's a truly decent fp for less than $10 that's
not a disposable?
And, now that the line is discontinued, I learn that there were Reflex
mechanical pencils other than stainless steel! :(

What are pressure bars made out of? by

The pressure bars used to depress ink sacs in fountain pens - are they made out of tin or spring steel? They seem to have some spring to them, but they also seem lighter than steel. Does anyone out there know?

Pen recommendations? by
Fredrik Glöckner
I'd like to solicit recommendations for a pen to get for "corporate
use", i.e., a $100-200 nice pen which is nice, well made, and pleasant
to write with. Now, I don't want to start a huge discussion about the
merit of various brands, but my point is that I would like to stay away
from what appears...

Orange Ink by

Hello,
I have been using orange ink for correcting papers about 3 years now. Up
until recently it has always been Herbin Orange Indien - a little on the
thin side but I like it.
I recently purchased a bottle of PRI Orange Crush and was very disappointed.
It is a dark muddy brown - a red brown -...
