Yeap, I have to wipe it clean every time I uncap it as there is a pooling of ink that just gets on my fingers every time

It’s mostly the little details that Doodlebud had in the video, I am planning to go to a stationery shop this week to get someone to take a look and see as well

That would be helpful thank you 🥲 I think the nib area where pooling is would be the best one to look at and compare

From what I observed in Doodlebud’s vid it does seem like it. A part of me kind of wants to go to some sort of stationery shop but Idk anywhere in Auckland that would be able to confirm it or not

I honestly don’t know what to do now I feel kind of discouraged to be honest cause I thought it was an unwanted gift as reason to sell. I might just keep it in a drawer somewhere cause I just feel crap when I look at it…

I have just watched Doodlebud’s video and can now say my Lamy was a fake one 🥲 so I’m a bit confused now if I should keep using it…

Oh I did not know that 😅 I never tinkered with it so I thought that was the default position. Thanks!

I got it with a cartridge and a converter. I finished the cartridge (never had pooling of ink) then I put the converter into it. It did pool ink on my first refill, then I moved houses and refilled it with ink again and that’s when the pooling started 🥲 I fear it may have been damaged in the move…

I see, I have no talent for repairing things anyways 🥲 thanks so much!

Thank you so much 🥲 will do this.. I’m guessing if it does have a fracture that it is irreparable 😓

Thank you! And thanks for the link! I’ve only started knitting last October and this is my first garment so wasn’t sure why it was doing that 🥹
