So far this year I carry these.

  • Lamy Al-Star: Mont Blanc Navy Blue
  • TWSBI vac mini: Noodler's 54th Massachusetts
  • 3 Lamy Safaris: Each with red, green, or black Lamy cartridges

The only one that I have on me at all times though (the rest are in my backpack), is the TWSBI vac mini.

 

I have kind of a Lamy addiction due to their super low cost. Somehow I stopped into my local pen shop a few hours after they received their initial shipment of the vac mini. The same thing happened with the 54th Massachusetts ink a few years back. I enjoy the vac mini so far in case anyone wonders.

I started the day with a Signum Carina filled with Diamine Mediterranean Blue but now I'm using a Gama Supreme Ebonite which arrived in the post this afternoon. It is filled with Waterman Harmonious Green which seemed appropriate as it's a green pen.

It is a large pen. I mean epic proportions large! It is not so much a pen as a writing pole ... and I love it!

      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
