@vwbusguy I only write with #fountainpens unless I'm out of ink and without a refill. My wife likes Lamy but they seem to scratch the paper for me. I've had too many Pilot pens leak ink all over.
I've been using a Parker Urban For a few years now. Inexpensive ($20-30) so it's not a huge loss if I lose it, writes very smoothly, only bleeds when I've tried to use it on airplanes with the air pressure being the issue, I suppose.
Just ordered a second because the lid is loose on mine. It's just as nice... Ran out of ink over the weekend but had my new pen also so kept writing.
