In any case, how do you repair a fountain pen?
You may even try a pen flush to further clean the pen. With a cartridge converter style fountain pen you can prime the ink. If you are using a cartridge simply unscrew the grip section and then compress the cartridge forcing ink through the feed. With a converter twist the converter a bit until ink appears.
Anyhoo, what is the smoothest writing fountain pen? This list should help you zero in on one that meets your needs.

A fountain pen is not essential, but it is not obsolete. That is to say, it still performs its function perfectly well. As long as humans still write by hand, the fountain pen is a perfectly acceptable way to perform the job.
Why fountain pens are expensive?
Fountain pens are expensive because of high material costs and high production costs. ... The most important factor in determining the cost of a pen is the material of the nib. Steel nibs are cheaper than gold nibs. The tip of the nib is sometimes of a different material than the rest of the nib.

When selecting your fountain pen, it is important to bear in mind how you write. If you have small handwriting, then we suggest looking for a fine nib which will give you precision. For heavy handed writers, we suggest purchasing an iridium-tipped nib, which is more durable and tends to reduce wear and tear.
If a nib that previously wrote smoothly has suddenly turned scratchy, it has probably suffered some sort of trauma. The most common being misalignment. If bumped or dropped one of the tines can move in relation with the other. This is the first thing to look for.
Fountain pen nibs will get smoother over time through regular use. Depending on the nib material, it could take anywhere from two weeks up to multiple months before noticing the difference. You can use micromesh or smoothing sticks to speed up the smoothing process.
Insert a fresh cartridge into the pen and squeeze it gently until the ink flows through the end of the pen. If the pen will still not write, disassemble it again and leave the nib to soak for several hours in a light detergent-and-water mix before reassembly.
Ink from a fountain pen glides effortlessly over the surface of the page, meaning glorious strokes and less pressure on the paper. You can also achieve a more unique writing style by adapting your choice of nib, hold, and angle of the pen (solid gold nibs actually adapt to your writing style).
Fountain pens are much sturdier and longer lasting than the pens many use in daily life. They are an attractive option because they write well and they feel better in the hand for long writing sessions. ... There is also an element of quality and practicality to fountain pens that disposable pens don't have.
