What Parkers Are You Working With Today?

[BrandonA]

In 1994 my parents gave me a Parker Sonnet Sterling Silver Fougere - its the pen I've had the longest. I damage it's nib may 6-8 years ago and it had sat there unused. I had another Sonnet (black with steel trim) which had the same nib which I hadn't used for 3-4 years. Tonight I decided to see if I could remove the nibs from each and switch them over. The good news is the switch worked and my Fougere is inked with MB Lavender ink.

 

The nib is a medium, quite wet and writes like a charm.

 

My only problem is I'm used to using 146 sized MBs so the pen feels small in my hand. Nonetheless I will enjoy writing with it.

I've got to stop inking these til one runs dry.

Right now I'm rotating between:

 

1 Nassau

 

5 Yellowstone

 

8 Plum

 

10 Cedar

 

11 Flighter

 

And the Black English Aero at the top with the converging line rolled silver cap.

 

What, no Bloody Brit Burgundy?

Hi !

 

An old Parker Duofold Senior, green marble. It is inked with Blue/black Parker Quink.

The other pen is a Parker 180, Flighter. It squirts Private Reserve DC Supershow Blue.

 

As October comes to an end, I will clean them, and put them away. The next two pens

in the rotation will come out for November. Neither is a Parker.

We recently had a large order for the gorgeous Parker Sonnet Stainless Steel Roller Ball. I had not had much to do with these particular pens but after dealing with them for a while I'm a big fan. They have a nice weight and write beautifully.

I would like to be working with my 1942 stripy Duofold, but I have to review a new Parker pen, so I have put all else aside for the next 2 weeks while I work with it and start writing the review.

Parker 51 flighter set. This set just finished its rotation. It was inked with Iroshizuku Yama-Guri ink and they loved each other. I loved them both as well.

 

 

 

Now in rotation is a Parker 51 set in forest green with a dual tone cap. Inked with the new Diamine Meadow ink. I really like this ink color. It goes very well with this medium nib.

Parker 51 Signet, fine point Nib Pelikan 4001 Violet Ink.

This is off topic but Mr. Pen Man I was thinking of buying a bottle of pelikan 4001 violet but I was afraid of feathering. I will be using it on the cheap paper I use for school and a moleskine, so in your personal experience what would you recommend.

P75 Burgundy with Parker Penman Ruby.

This one came in a couple days ago. It's one of the two Brit Burgundys from the UK I'm waiting on. It's a little more red than it shows in this outdoor (cloudy) today Droid pic. It looks like it has a UK Fine which would make it about a U.S. M- which should be about perfect for me. I even picked up my official KD135 section pliers yesterday from NAPA so I guess this will be my first full 51 disassemble. I already fixed a little bend in the clip and cleaned the outside up a bit.
