Sheaffer Millenium Balance with Pilot Tsuki-yo...but as soon as I get FPN blue I will switch the ink (hopefully next week ) Seems like a better match, as far as I see scans.

My new slate Vanishing Point with DC Supershow Blue! Such a fine line from the fine nib. Me likey.

A Caran d'Ache Various Carbon Fiber w/medium nib and Levenger blue cartridge (seepage using screw-in converter) for general notes and signing.

Waterman Exception Night and Day RB for loaner and newspaper crossword.

Visconti Millenium Arc III with the matching Waterman South Seas Blue. This is a great ink for this pen, but I'm thinking of switching to one of the funky Pilot inks for this pen.

Stipula Ventidue (Ti nib) with Noodler's Kuprin. You're probably tired of seeing that one, but it is the "middle of the three-pen case" pen.

Stipula duetto (Ti nib) with Noodler's Red Black.

Sheaffer Valor with diluted PR Burgundy Mist. Writin' this one dry! (And then maybe refilling it for another round. My baby... )

Sailor Sapporo Mini with Noodler's Bulletproof Black

An Epenco Merlin in black with Waterman Black. It's pretty, and it's a surprisingly smooth writer.

This week it's my Parker Duofold Centennial with a medium nib and loaded with Quink Blue-Black, and my Bexley Americana with a medium nib and loaded with Waterman's Florida Blue.

This morning I took four pens to work:

1. Parker Duofold Centennial Pearl & Black, medium nib, Private Reserve Lake Placid Blue;
2. Parker Duofold Centennial True Blue, medium/broad nib, Waterman South Sea Blue;
3. Parker Duofold International Amber Check, medium nib, Waterman Havana Brown; and
4. Montblanc Meisterstueck 149, broad nib, Noodler's Forest Green.

I'll probably take the same quartet tomorrow...

Today consists of a lot of sitting-at-my-desk-at-home-style writing.

As such, the only pen I'm using today is my new dip pen. I don't have to go anywhere away from my desk for writing today, so using something else isn't really necessary. Also, it's fun.

Today was for my Sheaffer (don't know what type) filled with Manuscript Brown
Montblanc Marlène Dietrich filled with mb Racing Green
Montblanc le grand filled with Private Reserve Midnight Blues

I used them to do some journaling and writing a few snail mail letters

Bexley USAF FP with my own blue ink mixture for notes

Two Rotring initials in black and blue
A Rotring 600 new style
A Waterman Phileas
