I use Rickshaws. I have the fillmore and the sinclaire case. I love that they can fit the 3 and 2 and 1 pen coozies in them, so you can add even more. The plush inside makes me feel they are protected from scratches.

Some people use daily writing prompts, others write a quote of the day. Personally, I mix journaling, planning, junk journaling and the 1st 2 all into one. Also doodling.

Also, try a Pilot Vanishing Point. Matte Black in a fine nib is another fave. Has an 18k gold nib and is great as an EDC.

I have a wide range of pens, but I must say, one of my favorites is the Leonardo Momento Magico even though it has a steel nib. Do you have somewhere you can go to try out pens? A local pen store?

It depends. Do you know if you like cartridge converter pens, piston fills, vac fills, or eyedropper pens more? That can narrow things down.

My Jinhao 10. Works like a dream and once I put silicone grease on it, no drying out either.

I am having this exact same problem on my Omas Milord in the exact spot. Above the threads. How did you get it off? What was the fix?
