I'm a journalist. I write a lot. Right now I use a kaweco perkeo all black fountain pen. But I want to upgrade. I'm looking for a light weight no screw fountain pen in a higher price class. It has to be durable, can take a lot on ink, an edc and around the 100 dollar mark. What do you guys recommend?

What about an opus 88? Massive ink capacity, shutoff valve so pretty much never leaks, pretty sure they’re quite durable, standard JoWo nib Edit: whoops didn’t see you didn’t want screw cap - I use a pilot e95s daily which is fantastic but may not have the ink capacity you want
