$38
Recommended by Steven Weill
Platonic ideal fountain pen. Comes in more colors than you could possibly imagine and is nice enough to avoid feeling disposable while being affordable enough to not feel overly precious.

Is it heavy? Can you write quickly with it? Looking for one to really actively write with so I don't want it to be too heavy or too precious. This seems like it might fit the bill?

This would be perfect - I use three frequently and this feels between one that’s a bit too flimsy feeling and another that’s exhausting to use long term. If 1 is featherweight and 10 is idk platinum? this would be a 4. It’s JUST heavy enough to not feel cheap and not a bit more.

Perfect, I so appreciate your guidance! One more question cause I feel like you will have the answe. Do you have a notebook you like using this with? I want it to be large, like an 8 1/2 x 11 as I really want to use the pen and the notebook as my writing tools à la Natalie Goldberg style. Thanks so much!
