Are there any out there that folks can recommend? Nothing too pricey but I don’t want cheap either! I want something quick and easy. Blank will likely be some nice Yew if it makes a difference.

Most fountain pens require a cap/lid to stop the ink drying out or leaking so the answers probably NO
Personally a nice mid price /reasonable quality fountain pen has to be the Omega from Taylors Mirfield, two tubes, very quick and easy to turn. Next up I would go Levech from Beaufort and premium Mistral. :thumbs::thumbs:

My apologies William, they are supplied with the metal caps, so yes you only need to turn I blank.
