Trending: TWSBI GO Fountain Pen

Fountain pens have become more affordable and accessible for EDC, and while most in the price range of the TWSBI GO use a cartridge or converter for refilling ink, this value-packed everyday writer uses a spring-loaded push-button filling system. The large spring that makes it work is visible through its translucent plastic body, making the pen look like a technical instrument, and therefore an interesting collectible and conversation piece. Refilling ink with the TWSBI GO is easy and fun. First you remove the cap, which has been designed with an secondary inner cap to prevent ink from drying out during storage or transit. Next you unscrew the pen body, revealing the spring-based system. You dip the nib into an ink bottle, press down on the button at the other end of the pen, and let the spring help it suck in your new fill of ink. Re-screw the body, wipe down the excess ink, and snap on the cap, and as its name implies, you’re ready to go. The TWSBI GO is an affordable way to enjoy smooth fountain pen performance everyday, in a package that’s lightweight, fun to refill, and is an easy addition to your daily pack. Check it out at the link below.
