My daily use: Waterman Letalon blue gold, medium nib filled mainly with Montblanc blue royal ink and Faber-Castell e-motion parquet black with Dupont blue royal ink.

 

I have tested lots of inks, and the St. Dupont is maybe the most "dry" of all of them. Very impressive.

Silver Estie "J" with 2668 nib. Just took the stickers off and inked it for the first time.

Sheaffer late 30's (radius clip) standard size, #5 Feather touch, ultra-smooth fine nib.

Both inked from my new bottle of Diamine Blue Velvet

Fred, that Delta has completely taken my breath away.

That is the most beautiful piece of pen art I have ever seen.

Simply stunning.

I am in awe.

      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

      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
