Today is a Taccia Staccato Vanilla Latte kind of day! Inked with De Atramentis Vanilla Brown

Waterman Carene fine with 2/3 Waterman Blue-Black and 1/3 Mont Blanc black. Just adds a bit more 'age' to the colour.

Day III of exclusive Parker Duofold senior use. Pen still writing strong.

Black lamy studio fountain pen with EF nib.

My Lamy Safari, freshly-inked with my newly-purchased Noodler's Baystate Blue.

Still using the Duofold. Hasn't run out of juice yet...

I had three classes today. For History of Mathematics, I used a light blue Sailor long-cap pen filled with Diamine Mediterranean Blue ink. For Linear Algebra, I used an orange Sheaffer Fashion filled with Caran d'Ache Grand Canyon (brown) ink. For Theory of Computation, I used a gray Sheaffer Snorkel Sovereign filled with Noodler's Polar Black. I've been doing that a lot lately--picking a random pen from my bag to use in each class. It's fun, and makes for a very colorful notebook

Parker Duofold finally ran out of ink today. Pen was washed and put away for a rest.

Currently using my two lever-fill Watermen for writing.

Waterman junior has run out of ink. Flushed and set aside. Moving onto second Waterman lever-filler.

Waterman 502 lever filler has run out of ink. Moving onto Summit S-100...

Levenger Verona, converter filled with Baystate Blue. The BSB doesn't seem to agree with the Verona quite as well as it does my Lamy Al-Star.

Um... okay, go get a cuppa coffee...

Sheaffer Award converted to ED with Chelpark (thats an Indian brand) Royal Blue Ink.

A black platignum and a Parker matte black Sonnet. Both with 50/50 mix of own brew black and MB Christmas Brown.

Great colour but a dodgy mix of scents, Cinnamon and Cerrutti 1881, not good!

Using my Montblanc Meisterstuck today, until it runs out of ink (which, knowing my Chopin, will be in less than a week).

Waterman Phileas.

my 1977 mb 149

Pelikan M400 Honey with a 2:5 mix of Diamine Yellow and Diamine Mediterranean Blue for History of Math and Linear Algebra.
Visconti Millennium Arc II with Private Reserve Burgundy Mist for Theory of Computation.

Oh, and Sailor Pro Gear with J Herbin scented violet for homework last night. Couldn't help the scent, I was feeling like purple, and it was my only purple ink.

Right now I am using my brand-new (to me, at least!) Waterman Edson LE Sterling Silver with fine nib and Private Reserve Plum ink, my brand-new Sheaffer Snorkel Autograph with fine nib and Sheaffer Skrip Purple, and my Waterman Edson Diamond Black with medium nib and Noodler's Navajo Turquoise ink.

Also inked and ready to go: Montblanc 149 with broad nib, Montblanc William Faulkner with medium nib, Sheaffer Snorkel Valiant with medium nib, Sheaffer TM* Statesman with fine nib, four Sheaffer Legacys with medium nibs and one broad nib (Brushed Copper LE, palladium-finish, copper lacquer, and red lacquer), and a 1945 Parker "51" Vacumatic in cedar blue with sterling silver cap and fine nib.

Oh, and my father's 1958 Parker "51" Special Demi with medium nib...

OMAS Lucens Blue, Mottishawed M, Waterman Blue-Black. Best,

Montblanc '145' Chopin today. F-nib. Filled with black quink.

Today I am using my OMAS 360 with OMAS blue black ink. It feels well in my hand, writing position is always perfect.

Today it's been my Mottishaw'd stub in the VP plus my cool new Delta Via Veneto (in red, with some Visconti red). And a little bit of Kaweco Sport thrown in for good, reliable, lose-able measure.

Still testing the Baystate Blue, but today it's in my Levenger True Writer. BSB didn't seem to like my Levenger Verona, so we'll see how it performs in the TW.

Waterman Carene running Waterman Florida Blue and a Sheaffer Heritage Legacy running Skrip Blue-Black. Gotta love the inlaid nibs

Waterman Carene Deluxe with a 1:1 mix of PR Burgundy Mist and water. I'm so happy that it's now my favorite pen's turn to be back in rotation

Like andyk, it's been a while since I've posted on this thread, so here goes:

In my pocket pen case:
Danitrio Densho Raw Ebonite with firm fine nib and Aurora Black
Cedar Blue Parker "51" vacumatic with sterling cap and extra-fine nib with Noodler's Blue

In my briefcase:
Red Aurora Ipsilon fine nib with Waterman Green (for grading)

What am I using today?

*Checks trouser-pocket pen-pouch*

1928 Parker Duofold senior two-bander 'big red'.
1949 Parker '51' Flighter.

*Checks inner coat-pocket pen-pouch*

1946 Waterman 502 lever-filler.
2006 Montblanc 145 'Chopin'.
2003 Campo Marzio Minny*

*Nib-smoothing on this pen is ongoing. Results so far have been promising but still needs a bit more work. I have brought it with me today to see just how well it writes on different kinds of paper.

I have a bunch of vintage pens and some fancy ones, but i've decided to use Cores and only Cores outside of the house. I have a loverly Lysium Core with the bigger nib. That's what i am using today.

Delta DolceVita Soirée, FP, F, seppia (dark brown) ink.

Today: (1) 1960's Sheaffer school pen filled with Purple Wampum; (2) Waterman Phileas with Waterman black ink.

This week:

Sailor 1911 - Waterman Florida Blue - probably my smoothest nib
Rotring Newton - Diamine Imperial Purple - could be an offensive weapon in the wrong hands
Parker 51 - Parker Quink Blue Washable - beginning to understand what it's all about

Sailor Sapporo Mini with Noodler's Swishmix True Rouge (I was grading calculus homework for a professor)

Nib smoothing has been successful!! My Campo Marzio Minny is back in regular service a beeeeeeeeeyooootiful smooth fine nib

Tortoise-shell Bexley prototypewith a fine two tone 18k gold nib and blue Sailor Gentle ink

Diamond Black Edson with fine nib and Parker Blue Quink.

Very different but very enjoyable writing experiences.

A Chinese job, recently bought in a job lot of 4 FPs for $20 inc shipping, no makers name just A33 Classic. Pen writes really nice, never dries up and works from the first downstroke of the day, unlike my Parkers which seem to know the start of every sentence and leave a line which has to be guessed by the reader.

Handsome too in a Black pearl finish with gold bands. The pen has a good solid weight to it and a satisfying clunk when the cap goes on.

Bravo! I, too, used my Edson Diamond Black today, a medium nib and Noodler's Navajo Turquoise ink; I also used my Edson LE Sterling Silver with fine nib and Noodler's Blue ink, and my sterling silver Sheaffer Imperial and Sheaffer Skrip Purple.

I love inlaid nibs....

my faithful 149

Today!...or rather, later today, as it's currently 1:30am and I must be off to bed soon, I shall be using...my...

Parker '51'.
Parker Duofold.
Campo Marzio.
Montblanc Meisterstuck 145.
And probably my Summit S-100.

Stipula Suprema with Noodler's Violet Vote
Visconti Swisher Van Gogh with PR Plum
Sheaffer Balance II with Noodler's Luxury Blue

Stipula Vedo Amethyst Violet F nib with PR Tanzanite, diluted I wonder why this pen is not more popular...absolutely gorgeous, writes wonderfully, and piston fill at relatively low price point.
