Old faithful...

 

A 1930s 100 was my backup yesterday evening when I used an Onoto Junior lever fill pen with a random ink mix which looks dark green.

My elegant matte black Cross Century 2 F. Missed that slender profile. Feels like an artists tool (paint brush) in hand to make those precise strokes.

Still trying to find the perfect Ink for my fairly dry-writing Pilot CH92 FM. Trying out Robert Oster Fire and Ice and it's looking good so far.

Picked up the smoke colored Pilot Custom 74 (M) over the weekend and have been using it daily ever since. Absolutely loving the smooth feeling I get from the nib. Currently using Pelikan 4001 Blue-Black, which is a little on the dry side. Cant wait to ink it up with a more wet ink.

Visconti Van Gogh Maxi with 14k gold nib, Waterman Blue ink, it's a gusher.

And Soennecken 510S with Prlikan Violet 4001 ink, it's even more gusher than Van Gogh Maxi.

Today was totally out of character to me, which prefer the broad ones:

 

Today I used only a Himalaya Saffron Orange EF with Birmingham Duquesne Incline Station Red (written stuff was work stuff, sorry for the intentional lowres-blur).

Carrying a Parker 51 Aero in my backpack that just barely survived being stolen in an elderly home. Don't ask.

Plain old Aurora Blue in a plain old (28th birthday some time this year) Montblanc 149 have served me well today, as they will every time I call on them.

It is a cheap faux leather case from eBAy.

Are your pens Pilot, Pelikan, Platinum, and another Pilot? If so, which ones? If not, what?

      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
