oh, oh... my almost favourite subject...
I use the inexpensive Sheaffer calligraphy pens for everyday writing
almost every day. They come commonly in little sets with three different
nib sizes.. fine, med and broad....
there are two designs, the older ones with plain, smooth sections, and
the newer ones which have little dimples and rubbery grippy sections..
both are commonly available on Ebay for between $5 and $10...
personally, I like the older ones with the smooth sections best because
then its easier for my fingers to slide into the most comfortable
position for them.. I find grippy sections create more tension in my
hand, which is exactly what I use fountain pens to avoid...
online the easiest way to tell them apart is that the older, smooth
section ones have maroon and beige graphics while the newer style have
two tone blue, or blue and gray graphics... but I'd send an email
enquiry to check for sure before I bid.. the pens with the grippy
section also have

Around 20 years ago Sheaffer calligraphy sets came with envelopes and
stationery as well as an underliner guide and they were a really good deal.
I don't kmow what happened to the paper supplies.
