you should get one again :)
there's nothing like liquid ink.
maybe its just me, but ballpoint pens drive me crazy.
as an artist they've never appealed because they never put down a thick line, and require too much effort otherwise, which i've always thought was inefficient.
Now I will definitely get one, I also used to cut their tips to write Nastaliq. It was very difficult to get it right but once you get it that Nip pen will become your favorite. I should do it again. 🍀
do you have access to amazon? i hate them for what they did to small businesses, but if you do look up "kaweco sport" :) i have an antique schaeffer i really love and several others, the glass pens are really neat. plus they feel old fashioned, you have to dip them. and you can sandpaper the nib if you want to mess around further.
cutting metal nibs you mean? thats really cool...
