Ink Question by eb
From a newbie - I moved up from a few cheap fountain pens to a Waterman Phileas with a medium nib, which is terrific. I used one cartridge, and then used the converter. I filled it with black Quink I bought from Staples and am very satisfied with the results. While I'm not looking to change inks, I...

Archive with Graphite? by Jason McDingleberry

Innovation in Fountain Pens by David Heverly
I've been thinking about how fountain pens have changed over the years and it doesn't seem there has been anything truly innovative in the last 40 or 50 years. Maybe there have been innovations in the manufacture of fountain pens and there may be some new materials such as ABS plastic, but the...

Quick Reference Guide for Noodler's Ink by Tim McNamara
