Perhaps you've always used ballpoint pens and have no problems with them...maybe you even have a few favorite ballpoint pens that you tend to reach for. Of course, there are plenty of good-quality "regular" pens out there that work beautifully for putting pen to paper...but there is something special about a fountain pen. Once you consider the benefits, you may just decide that you want to buy one for yourself, too!

Should I Buy a Fountain Pen?
You may not have ever really thought about upgrading the writing instruments that are on your desk, but some pens are certainly better than others. There are many reasons to consider a fountain pen, especially if you find yourself writing by hand a lot. These are just some of the benefits of a fountain pen:
They're much more pleasant in the hand, and you don't have to press down like you do with a regular ballpoint pen. You'll find that writing with a fountain pen is a more comfortable and luxurious experience.
Many people find that their handwriting is improved when they use a fountain pen.
Fountain pens last for a long time, making them a great investment.
Fountain pens are more environmentally friendly and more sustainable than your run-of-the-mill disposable ballpoint pens.
Fountain pens aren't just a great option for personal use; they also make a great gift, especially if you're shopping for someone who "has everything."
