It is always said that the pen is mightier than the sword. And this pen is no other than the fountain pen. A good Omas fountain pen is not just a writing tool but also reflects the taste or personality of a person. Most people who use fountain pens would rather use fountain pens only as they can use inks in a wide variety of colors and provide you with smooth writing. Omas Fountain Pens need very little pressure exerted by the hand while writing and you can easily write for long periods of time without feeling tired. The appearance and elegance of the Omas Fountain Pens is very attractive.

An Omas fountain pen worth around $400 would cost you just a few cents a day considering it would give you service for a long as two to three decades. So it would be well worth to invest in one of these Omas Fountain Pens. The Omas fountain pen is a made up of some components like the round barrel, the nib and the feed, the reservoir which holds the ink that it uses, a cap that is screwed on or clicked into position to protect the nib and prevent the ink from spilling out and soiling your pen case or shirt pocket. Then it has a clip which is fitted on the cap or cover so that you can clip the Omas fountain pen to your coat or shirt pocket. These metal clips which are solid are definitely better than the plastic clips that most ball point pens have. In the Omas fountain pen ink runs down the feed by making use of gravity as well as capillary action. The slit that the nib has guides the ink to the point of the nib. The tiny hole at the start of the slit lets air help in the capillary action. Ink was earlier filled in the reservoir with the help of a dropper but later you could dip the pen nib down into an inkpot and press a lever to fill the pen. And now some of the Omas Fountain Pens even come with ink cartridges to save you the bother of filling them up. Just replace the empty cartridge and you are ready to write. The body of the pen is mostly made of metal, hard rubber, celluloid or plastic. Omas Fountain Pens come in a wide variety of colors and designs to suit each individual’s tastes and preferences. You can choose an Omas fountain pen with a silver or gold nib; they really add beauty and value to the product.
