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

That looks very elegant. If I wasn’t so afraid of leaking inks I would get into fountain pens too.

Leaking usually doesn't happen, but that is very dependent on the pen. I have had some pens that leak and I quickly got rid of them. I still get ink on my hands from inking and cleaning my pens, but I feel that's part of the fun.
