Not a fountain pen specific person, but I am very passionate of pens in general.

I would suggest checking out anything by Schneider; their price point compared to quality is phenomenal, and they have a fountain pen range that has price friendly options. I have not had a single bad experience with them so far!

My pleasure; hopefully you can find them nearby!
They are definitely a great brand; their One Business rollerball is one of my personal favourites of all time ( •̀ ω •́ )✧

that pen looks pretty nice, ngl. How does it feel to write with? Is it smooth?

idk if you've used Bic pens before, but I've found those to be the smoothest pens I've ever come across. I kinda fell in love with how smooth those pens felt to write with. I'm talking about the classic BIC Round Stic, btw. I haven't experimented with many pens but those are certainly my current favorite!

It is incredibly smooth; it's designed specifically for document signing, so it glides really well on paper, and has a really nice, juicy inkflow!

The Bic Round Stic is definitely one of the greatest of all time haha; I think I've used those at every single job I've ever had LOL. She's consistent, affordable, and last 3000000 years a pen (❁´◡`❁)

If you like that style of pen, I think you'd like the Pentel R.S.V.P line; they're a little thinner but have a similar inkflow, and write as smooth as room-temp butter. The black colour was my daily pen for years because it dries down fast and I can write quickly.

The Schneider ones aren't in any of my local Staples, but it's worth checking out to see if they stock them at yours ヽ(✿ﾟ▽ﾟ)ノ
