I don't really want to just link to where to buy them because the prices and deals change all the time. It's probably better if you shop around a little and find what works for you. You can always look on Amazon but not all of these are on there, and I can recommend websites like:
www.jetpens.com
www.gouletpens.com

The Muji rubber spot is intended for a sticker. Some Muji fountain pens come with dot stickers. I marked my Muji pen with a white dot sticker (not from Muji) that I colored in using the ink color I’m using. Easier to recognize especially if you have a few Muji fountain pens with different ink colors.

Peter I have three Lamy Safari fountain pens with broad nibs and I use Lamy ink. No problems with their writing or ink flow. Cost $55 Australian. Only problems were that two of the caps became loose after a few years and had to be replaced. The pen with a cartridge lasts about one week with a lot of writing and I use it when travelling-quick and easy to change ,no leaks and more compact than carrying a bottle. Lamy Safari are excellent pens. Bob Major Adelaide South Australia

I have the orange Opus 88 (my favorite pen of many fine ones) and never would have thought to stick a parallel nib on it. What an amazing testimony to its feed that it can keep up with the flow demand that nib puts on it.

Not likely that’s as popular a thing, but you’ve got to have a dream! I’m already looking at an endlessly glowing lap from Noodlers bulletproof ghost ink USPS delivered which gooshed from a badly damaged cap and thinking this brand seems solid and lasting so far. Holds up to knit t-shirt fabric well. I also purchased a bottle of carbon ink for doodling around and watercolor works, but I really want a rich beautiful royal purple and a Caribbean blue that would make your eyes blush with envy.

I hate the kaweco sport. I had one in high school, got another later on, and then realized what I hated about it when I found the better version - the chinese delike alpha. That pen is exactly the same as the kaweco sport (but comes in brass, aluminum and acrylic for about $10-15) but is about 1cm longer, which lets it use a normal converter and lets it be used unposted. I've used one of those for years now as a paramedic, and I've even used it as a makeshift glass breaker with a rock (the brass model) and it still writes and opens just fine. For me, my top 5 lower priced pens are the faber castell loom ($35-40) the muji aluminum pen ($15) the delike alpha ($10-15) the wing sung 698 ($15) and the FPR himalaya ($20-40) If you've got $50-100, a platinum 3776 century, an osprey milano in ebonite, a pilot custom 74/91, a pelikan m205, or an 18k parker sonnet (routinely come around for $85-100) And if you've got $100-150, a lamy 2000, cross townsend, vintage pelikan 400 or 140 (these will have flexible 14k nibs,) a pilot custom 742 or pilot falcon, or some other nice vintage pen like a parker vacumatic or parker 51.

My Lami Allstar works perfectly well, no matter how long it lays down chillin' . I love it. But I certainly want to look into that see trough pen of yours.

I am getting more serious about getting my own fountain pen maybe even pens! I know I have asked about your favorites in a few of my comments and I am interested in you newest picks and in the under $50.00 range! $30.00 or less is even better! Thanks Peter and I hope your having a great day too!

Love my TWSBI eco. Haven't tried the Kaweco sport yet, but maybe someday. That pen has a double broad option that really interests me. I wish I had access to a Waterman like that, vintage pens are just a touchy thing.

I have the Twsbi clear with clear cap. I think it's a good pen for the money and I like the clear and how people think the pen is the color of the ink. One day I'll have a red pen, then powder blue the next day. It has the med nib and the only issue I have is with the nib sliding out of the pen. I just noticed this 2 days ago, I just push it back in. The nib doesn't fall all the way out , just a little bit; it may be caused by the way I drag the pen when I write.

i was surprised to see you shown the jinhao. my buddy when he came back from boot and basic, he came back with that pen and gave it to me. not like it was a big deal honestly but it opened my eyes to so many other pens like fountain pens. i then recieved a better fountain pen which was the lamy safari, and i havent had much issues with it. I'm currently eyeballing the pilot vanishing point as my first gold-nib pen but i dont know at the moment.
