Desk pen
I've recently changed jobs and now spend more time at a desk. Does
anyone have a recommendation for a desk fountain pen? I Have an old snorkel that I love but it is too slim for me to use for more than just signatures. TIA, Jeff |

Thanks,
I guess I should have specified that I meant a pen that sits in a holder on a desk. Jeff Bluesea wrote: "Jeffrey Davis" wrote in message ink.net...

I actually use two Esterbrooks in a holder - one for black, the other
for blue. Get the best nibs you can - generally, the higher the number, the better. Jeffrey Davis wrote: Thanks, I guess I should have specified that I meant a pen that sits in a holder on a desk.

I have several desk pens including a Sheaffer Snorkel. If you find the
Sheaffer snorkel to be too thin then I would suggest that you try to find a Parker 51 or 21 desk pen, they are slightly thicker in the barrel but not by very much. Alternatively you could always use a pen with a cap as a desk pen. I think Pelikan makes a desk pen stand where you can set your pen in the stand without the cap of course. Look on e-bay under desk set category in writing instruments and you can find all sorts of desk pens. The advice provided by others is also good. "Jeffrey Davis" wrote in message ink.net...
