Slim fountain pen?
Hey guys,
I really like fountain pens except for their thickness. I'm wondering if there is a thin fountain pen out there in the affordable range (to me that's 30-120 dollars). Thanks! |

Hundreds of them.
Aurora Hastils and Marco Polo. Dozens of Waterman pens. Lots of Parker pens. ST Dupont Classique and Gatsby. Montegrappa 300 & 400 series. Sheaffer Targa. Caran d'Ache. Graf von Faber Castell. |

What fellow FPer Jar says if you're after something branded.
If you don't care about brands or like to go under the radar, I'm a fan of Muji's there's 2, ones a pocket pen extending when posted & the other is conventional. Cartridge only. I've bought several & they all wrote well not needing any work. Only catch is you need to have a Muji store (they're more homewares & clothes, some stationery) nearby & they constantly sellout of their FPs between batches. |

I would recommend the Waterman Phileas!
I have them all in every color and config. Just the best for the money.

I've had my eye on a Caran d' ache 849 FP but I'm planning to mod the hell out of it to make a goldbar version.

Slim fountain pen?
My EDC is a slim Parker 75 Cisele circa 1950s. Sterling silver with a lovely textured guilloche finish. Used on eBay at the top end of your budget. Very collectible with several variations over the years.
