Why don't you try it? It's iron gall ink, and may be harmful to our FPs, but careful use and constant flushing will prevent damage.Clement Dionglayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00286544519586841405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32874775.post-20080726686694460112012-02-24T05:14:30.591+08:002012-02-24T05:14:30.591+08:00This is the notebook that made me realize I actual...This is the notebook that made me realize I actually LIKE notebooks.

My gels took WAY too long to dry, but ballpoint and liquid were great. It's amazing that such a glossy cover takes ink so well.<br /><br />I LOVE Field Notes to death, but the coating of ink to cover the pages of this edition makes it hard to use much but gel and ballpoint. I've gotten MUCH better results with liquid in their white paper editions. Maybe you'll have better luck using your fountain pens with the spring edition! :)Johnnyhttp://www.pragmatik.org/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32874775.post-37786491315448111832012-01-21T14:36:49.043+08:002012-01-21T14:36:49.043+08:00I just got these in the mail today.

Do you have any suggestions for the store?<br /><br />Thanks.

I have been thinking of getting some of these. I generally use a fountain pen, but it looks like I will be restricted to a pencil or gel pen. I do like the paper.
