This pen is the only fountain pen in the world (at least that I have found) that does NOT dry out without regular usage. I'm embarrassed to admit how many of them in different colors (along with corresponding colored ink) I own and I can pick one up after not using it for months and it immediately writes. I guess I should add that it's a very nice weight,feels good in the hand and the nib is not scratchy. I love these pens, you might be able to tell.
