A gift from my wife. A La Grande or 146 with an oblique broad nib.

I like fountain pens but I’m left handed so it’s a bit of a struggle. Unless it’s just the ink I’ve used, they seem to smudge lots into my wrist.

That could be your ink! Look into some quick-drying inks, Noodler's has some. That should minimize your smear. I think there's something youtube videos for lefties to help them!
