My New (first) Fountain Pen
So I bit the bullet and bought my first FP last week and it came in this morning! It's a Parker Urban Premium with a Medium Nib. I only paid $40 Brand New on Amazon for it, and out of the box it looks to be worth every penny. I haven't had a chance to do much writing yet, but I got the cartrige loaded and it seems to be very smooth, so much different than the ballpoints I'm used to. Anyway, without further adieu...

The pictures don't do it justice, they were taken with my Blackberry.
It is VERY comfortable, the contoured shape really feels great in the hand, and it's got a good weight, definitely feels well made. |

Very nice. Congratulations on your first fountain pen.
It all starts innocently enough.
