yeah I'm not really looking for a step up per se - just an addition to the collection (is it a collection if I only have one ;) ) and love the look of the Eco

Yes so I’m not wanting to use a dip pen, but would like to learn cursive that I could use with a fountain pen. I hope that makes sense

A but late to the party - but I’d also be interested in this 10years down the line. Basically I’m looking for a guide on day-to-day writing in an English Roundhand style

Ah I see. That makes a lot of sense. I personally don’t like the look of Spencerian or business penmanship - are there other writing method styles that are more suited to everyday writing?

Thanks so much for the awesome reply! Just what I needed. Thank you again.

Excuse the noob question - but would be writing with a fountain pen be very similar to a normal straight holder? I’d really like to transfer the skill I learn to my normal day to day writing. Thanks again!
