I use a Parker fountain pen every day - it was quite a cheap one bough in France on the same shopping trip in the 90s that I picked up my G1000. The pen is all metal, rather than the plastic-shelled ones that are sold in most shops.
I recently tried one of the entry-level parker fountain pens (around £10) and they aren't a patch on my old french one. My question is this - The old Gillette razors represent amazing value for money when compared with modern equivalents and the build quality is exceptional. If I was to look for a vintage fountain pen, is there an equivalent in the pen world?
