    Nice, I’m using my lammy today. I’d like to get one with a slightly flat tip so I can write with some slighly more interesting calligraphy. I’ll have to research what to get

    Wow, that’s pretty. I’ve been flirting with the idea of buying a fountain pen but I found the good ones expensive considering I rarely even write on paper anymore.

    What’s the dimensions of the notebook? The picture makes it look long and narrow. At a guess I would say 4x11 or a 8 1/2 x 11 sheet folded in half.

      It’s 9x5 so yeah it’s a little more narrow then usual. Makes it easier to find room to keep it in my bag.

    Oh, the Vista! Rather than be lured by the many colors of the safari, you have sought out the clarity of the clear. Great choice! Welcome to fountain pens!

      Not the book, the nib on the pen. I imagine it’s ground to accommodate the “hook” that many lefties do to avoid smearing fountain pen ink.

    Neat! I have a couple of Vistas, a Safari, and an Al-Star with nibs from EF to B. Solid pens and iconic design.
