In this video, I show you my choices (and reasons why) for if I could only keep one fountain pen per brand! #onefountainpenperbrand I got the idea for this video by reading Rachel Delafuente's blog - Rachel's Reflections - You Can Only Keep One:

I decided to choose one pen only from 9 brands: Lamy, TWSBI, Benu, Kaweco, Opus 88, Jinhao, Moonman, Pilot, + Pelikan ... then I added 4 categories: Vintage, Custom/Special, Student and Dip Pens.
