Subject: [Leica] Re Leica and fountain pens

Hi all,

I tried to refrain from this thread but finallly find this thread too fun to
miss.

I also have a few good pens back home.  Once in a while, when I am tidying
my stuffs, I will take them out for a while.  They are very fine and nice to
look at and play with.  But I think a $2.00 regular pen is a better tool for
writing.  At least it seldom leaks and the ink is really water-resistant.

Meanwhile, my M6 is hanging around my shoulder everyday.

To me -
Leica is a practical toy.
Fountain pen is a less practical tool.

Of course, I am just a no-taste guy that likes to take photo.   (BTW,  I am
also one of the non-existing Leica fans under 30, or  "wierdo" in short)

Good day.


Ben  ^_^
