Unless you do a massive amount of writing (in which case, expense it), the $5 it costs to buy a nice notebook for your $100+ pen is worth it.

One of my patients today had to sign a bunch of pre-surgery forms, and I had my Pilot Metro on me.

He said "Ooooh." as he signed.

I did that with a form once, before realizing that carbon paper doesn't work to well if you use no pressure.

I thought through the nib was the only way to fill the converter.

I've found that if you budget like an adult it doesn't matter if you buy $400 fountain pens. It's a hobby like anything else, and we all know there's an entire forum dedicated to hobbies that make your wallet and future childrens' college funds truly cry.

Now, the real problem? Being interested in both.

Sweet pen dude.

Dorkroom also. Maybe not to the same degree.

I feel the Noodler pens are way too physically large, but I'm a small cigar pen sort of guy I guess.

You know what they say about guys with small pens...

Small hands.

How hard would it be to get a TWSBI nib/nib unit into another pen? Everyone here seems to love them, but I don't care for their styling at all.

I like Clairefontaine since it seems to be the only high-quality notebook I can easily find in French rule, which is awesome.
