If you the opportunity, attend a pen show. There you will be able to try true vintage pens against modern pens.
There is a real difference.

Miami Pen Show Jul 13 - 15, 2018
Washington DC Pen Show Aug 3 - 6, 2018
San Francisco Pen Show Aug 24 - 26, 2018
Dallas Pen Show Sep 28 - 29, 2018
Colorado Pen Show Oct 5 - 7, 2018
Commonwealth Pen Show Sep 16, 2018
The Ohio Pen Show Nov 1 - 4, 2018
Michigan Pen Show ..........?

Fountain pens are a sophisticated pleasure.
Good luck, and take your time.
