The Best Fountain Pens Under £10

For all budgets, see The Best Fountain Pens for Every Budget, where we look at the best fountain pens available from under £10 to over £500.

If you're on a tight budget, or you just don't want to spend much to see if fountain pens are for you, there are some great options under £10. The Pilot VPen is probably the easiest way to get started - it's a real fountain pen with a steel nib, but it's disposable, so you don't have to learn to fill it - just take the cap off and start writing!

The Platinum Preppy is a favourite for many people, simple and cheap, but refillable with Platinum cartridges.
