I think the Nexx has to be my new favourite, inexpensive pen. I'd call it a sterter-pen, but truly I have 2 and I'm no novice fountain pen user. Robust, practical, cheap, reliable... Great for chucking in a rucksack. Always writes first time, with a great swappable LAMY nib. German eningeering done well. Don't forget to add a LAMY Z28 converter to your order.
