What Is Your Signature Pen If You Have One?

Pilot Metropolitan Violet Leopard filled with Diamine Oxblood and with a fine point. I need to replace my Prera with a medium point so it can enter the signature carry category. I am not sure why, but I am not as enamored with my Prera with a fine nib. I though I would at first, but now that I am used to using a medium, I feel like I need to switch.

I sign my name multiple times at work everyday. And I can't think of a better pen than my Pelikan M805 with a medium cursive italic ground by Mike Masuyama.

 

A close second is my Lamy 2000 also ground by Mike into a medium cursive italic.

Thanks,

 

Franz

Pelikan black M805 with 3B nib, filled with R&K Leipziger Schwarz, which I think is a very characterful black - like the bombazine of a Victorian undertaker's coat that has seen a little too much of the sun.

When a permanent ink is required, like signatures, I use my Visconti Van Gogh Maxi which is always loaded with Diamine Registrar's ink.

I only have two pens - an Aurora Optima and others.

If I'm at home, it would probably be my MB 146. If out somewhere like in a store or restaurant then I'd use my Schrade Tactical or Fisher Space Pen.

Jinhao x750 with a hacked TWSBI bold nib that I ground into a stub (hey, it's cheap to fail with those and I actually didn't muck it up too bad). Diamine Oxblood ... funny that someone else mentioned the same ink, given that there are so many to choose from.

 

Currently waiting for an OBB nib that I'll put into a Kaigelu 316 and will use that going forward.

Lamy Al Star EF with Diamine's Gerbera. I do anything with it really, not only write.

If I am required to use a dark colour for signing, I'd use my Hero 529 with (currently) SuSeMaI's Blue Cashmere. That's usually what I have in my bag. I'm not too picky about the pen I sign with, so it depends on my mood, pretty much (that meaning what pen fits my mood goes to my bag, and with that pen I'll do anything I need to).

Parker Sonnet F nib.

Fine nib is not too bad for signing.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
