Once again, it's that time of year! Fountain Pen Day (FPD) on Friday, November 4 is a nice reminder of our passion if you are a fountain pen aficionado like us. It's a day to celebrate fountain pens, ink, and all things handwritten - as if we pen enthusiasts needed an excuse!

And who can forget the whimsical and colorful presentation pens? If you are looking for something new, there are plenty of great options out there.

Here are some of our favorite pens to celebrate National Fountain Pen Day 2022:

1. Pilot Metropolitan

This is a great starter fountain pen for anyone who wants to dip their toe into the world of ink. The Pilot Metropolitan is inexpensive, reliable, and extremely easy to use.

2. Lamy Safari

This is another terrific starter pen that can hold its own against more expensive options. It’s comfortable in your hand, has an incredibly smooth nib, and there is always an option to buy an extra nib should you need one!

3. Kaweco Sport

Our favourite pocket pens for everyday carry. Be it Classic, Skyline, Frosted or Metal Al Sport series, you will always love their smooth nibs and beautiful colors. 

4. Pilot Custom 74

If you would like to treat yourself! Go for this pen. Custom 74 will be your addictive daily writer, we promise. This 14K Solid Gold nib pen is a dream pen for many, and will be a jewel in your collection.

5. Parker 51

The Parker 51 is as groundbreaking today as it was when first launched in 1941. This unique writing instrument is inspired by the pen once hailed as the ‘world’s most wanted’ – retaining its distinctive streamlined silhouette and distinctive hooded nib and range of stunningly bold colors. It's a classic reimagined and a modern take on the original.
