Wow, this is a really, really, nice fountain pen. I know you put your research into this gift and it was worth it!

I was a bit confused by the parts of the pen but a quick look on youtube helped me. My gift included a chrome Sheaffer fountain pen with an F nib, 2 disposable ink cartridges and an ink piston convertor so I can buy bottles of ink and refill it myself.

The nib glides really smoothly and is just as thin/thick as I want. My only previous experience with fountain pens have been with cheap dip pens and cheap disposable fountain pens I used for sketching so this is a tremendous improvement!

I'm about to go on vacation down the coast so I am going to bring this pen and do some coastal sketches. I can sketch with ink without being frustrated!!!

Thanks so much!
