I am new to fountain pens, although I bought my Metropolitan in 2018. What I notice is that I seem to get ink up on the area above the nib, where your fingers grip. Is this from storing the pen tip down, or me somehow getting ink inside the cap when I put the pen away? Or something else? I really want to start carrying the pen more, especially at work, but the ink on my fingers has me not taking it anywhere.
Let me know what you folks think. As I am so new to this, I will not be offended if you tell me something that should be basic!
