Gaah...

I need a fountain pen. I wrote with a friends a couple of days ago, and it felt so great. It was a cheap pen, but it wrote like magic! My handwriting improved so much.

Hey Kyle, don't you already have one? And yes, fountain pens can dramatically improve your handwriting. They did mine.

I haven't gotten it checked out yet, and I don't want to use it just yet. It hasn't been used for at least 20 years, and I think it needs to be looked at before used.

Kyle, something cheap but excellent to tide you over would be Lamy's Safari, they really write well!

Kyle,

If you must have a fountain pen, I suggest a cheap, good-quality fountain pen from either Waterman, Parker or Sheaffer. They're easy to find and they come in some nice colours and designs.

Kyle. I agree with the Lamy Safari they are nice. I also have a Pelikan M150 that writes like a dream.

Kyle, get your grandad's FP checked out first. You'll have to get it fixed anyway so why waste money on other pens?
Or better, get your folks to foot the bill of fixing it
