Fountain Pens

[Mad Duc]

Anyone here into Fountain pens? I bought one the other day on a whim, mostly because it was a Ducati one. It's kinda cool. I love the old school scratchiness I get when I write with it.

Mine is the black one:



Now I just need a cigar and smoking jacket & I'm set for the Fab 50's.

I bought mine used so I paid a ton less.

Don't like the grip angle, and it looks like it needs a tail chop.

They don't have one in CF? 

I'm a lefty - can't use fountain pens.

You can. It just gets kinda......messy..

My Dad got into fountain pens about 15 years ago, mostly Mont Blanc.


Those things were the biggest pieces of shit.

He would be constantly refilling them before he left for work and occasionally he come home with a huge black ink puddle on his shirt where the pen decided to leak.


I'd compare the pens he owned to Calibri lights (if anyone has ever owned one, you know what I am talking about)


expensive and pieces of shit

Isn't that what the Jap bikers say about Ducatis?
