I Haven't Bought a Fountain Pen in Months. Here's Why

I haven't bought a fountain pen in months. Not a deliberate decision — just a quiet realisation that the urge to chase every new release had faded. And honestly? I think that might be a good thing. In this video, I talk about what it actually feels like to settle into a new phase of the hobby. Not cynical. Not bored. Just... more content. I share the pens that quietly became my everyday favourites — the Leonardo Momento Zero, the Waterman Carène, a heavily modified Wing Sung 699, and the Majohn P140 that's rarely uninked — and what they've taught me about what actually matters in this hobby long-term. If you've ever felt the urge to slow down on collecting, this one might resonate. 🖋️ Pens mentioned in this video: • Leonardo Momento Zero • Waterman Carène • Wing Sung 699 (with hand-polished Lemon nib) • Majohn P140 with Majohn Sun nib • Leonardo PM5 • Gravitas VAC 2.0 • Ultemate VAC —————————————————— 🖊️ More from The Ink Well Studio: ▶ Ink Reviews & Comparisons:    • Fountain Pen Ink Reviews   ▶ Fountain Pen Reviews:    • Fountain Pen Ink Reviews   —————————————————— #fountainpen #fountainpenhobby #fountainpencollection #EDC #stationery #journaling #analoghobbies #penreview #inkwell 📸 CONNECT WITH THE INKWELL STUDIO: Instagram: @theinkwellstudio Email: [email protected]
