but I must say the thought crossed my mind last summer, when I found an old key ring-cum-2-inch-fountain pen I was given as a child, and which I never used, and I saw the sac had crumbled to bits from dryness. As Ruth says, it sounds as if it could leave some residue, too....
The fountain pen (1) has a nib (3) with a lengthwise slot (6) fed with ink by capillary action. It has a hole (5) measuring between 0.5 and 2 mm in the slot close to the tip of the nib to interrupt the ink flow, and a metal or plastic strip (2) to cover or expose the ...

This pen comes with one mini-cartridge and one converter. I chose to use the converter so I could pick my ink of choice. I initially inked the TW with Iroshizuku Ku-Jaku (review forthcoming) and they have been great friends. The flow is wet, although I think that is due to both the...
