    Pilot Metropolitan Collection Fountain Pen, Gold Barrel, Classic Design, Fine Nib, Black Ink (91112)

    • If you don’t mind cleaning ink leaks or just use it for journaling or other light use, it would be fine.
    • I used this pen for a few months and had consistent problems with ink leaking out of the converter
    • The ink is nice and dark and I haven’t any issues with ink leaking.
    • Every time uncap the pen ink leak on my hand and inside a cap.
    • you can clean it up and after you close the cap and opened again it will have ink leaking
    • Looks good but ink leaked
    • The grip is nice and wide, so my hand doesn't cramp up as much as it would with your basic Bic
    • Smooth as can be and getting better the more I use it
    • The nib is a joy, thin to my tastes, with an almost impossible to miss sweet spot
    • The pen feels great in the hand and extended writing sessions are not so fatiguing as with my super fat cigar shaped fountain pens, which I also love
    • I think this, plus a very fine emory board will make it just about perfect as the nib itself is still a little rough under magnification
