    This bring back alot of memories. In Vietnam, you will use this type of pen during primary school. Once you go to secondary school, you will start to use the ball pen. It’s been 8 years since the last time i use this type of pen.

    my favorite part of my firt mo.ents with this pen were figuring out how it was engineered and how to fill it without using the instructions. once it is in your hands it is not hard to figure out, i promise. i really love my curidas a lot.

      @@CortesevasiveWell, the feel is superior, but a ballpoint sure won't leak unwashable ink all over your 200 dollar shirt. Id say for the modern day, gel pens are better in general than both

    • @MitchellJBridges
      @MitchellJBridges 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ​​@@TheKimbit Wrong. Fountain pens won't leak if you have a cartridge converter. The ones that leaked were usually the sac based ones. Because warm air would pressurize inside the barrel and shoot out ink. Cartridge converter pens don't because there is very limited air because of the size of the tube.
      If it's a concern even still just place the nib upwards and screw the plunger in the converter until there is no air. It's simple really.
      Lower ink capacity pens tends to have less chances of burping.
      I had many ballpoints leak and break. Gel pens you like so much stain everything and there's nothing I could do about it. Aside from being scratchy with no choice of ink lol. Disposable pens are also bad for the environment may I add.

    • @MitchellJBridges

      ​@@TheKimbitI tried her pens just to go right back to fountain pens again because they don't even feel like writing half the time. Just try a fountain pen from Jinhao and you won't be disappointed.
      I EDC fountain pens every day with no concern for leaking. Modern fountain pens are much better designed than their ink sac predecessors.

      Have you tried Levenger inks? I have a dozen in two boxes of colored inks. I purchased those years ago, and they’re smooth and have never dried not changed properties over these many years. They also sell other nice inks and pens,paper as well, and various other related products. This wa back when I received catalogs through the mail, but everything is online now. Good luck, and if you try the Levenger in the blue or black that you need, I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. I love the charcoal and sienna colors that were in one box. The boxes are extraordinarily lovely as well, look very nice sitting on a shelf, desk or bookcase. Regards ~

Is it because they’re cheaper or am I doing something wrong haha

      There has to be an exchange of ink and air. Some pens has a designated vent in the feed to let the air in as the ink is leaving. If you have a transparent pen( demonstrator) it’s more likely to observe those small bubbbles of air entering the ink chamber during writing.
