In Italian mood today, so here I am snailing with:

  • Omas Big Ogiva in Burgundy with Noodler's Sawaro Wine
  • Omas Paragon Saft Green Cellulloid (and gold trim) with blue Aurora

Happy as a clam, lovely sunny Saturday in Maceió. Anyone wants to join me for a caipirinha?

I think I may just be an oddity on this board. I pick one pen, and usually just use that one pen through the day, unless there is an odd occurrance that forces me to use another.

 

That being said, todays was my Parker "51" Aero. Black with Lustraloy cap.

S.T. Dupont Fidelio loaded with "my" ink, a 2:1 mix of PR DC SS Blue and Tanzanite and a Waterman Liaison with Waterman Florida blue. As always, there is a Waterman Philias in my jacket pocket.

Just received my first Targa yesterday - so we're at the "getting to know each other exclusively" phase of the dating game.

Denis, nice to see you using the CS #58.

 

Today for me it's Burgundy Parker 51 with gold filled cap converging lines aero.

Today it was a blue Pelikan M605 and red marbled Optima. Tonight, I am simply going with a Lamy 2000. What a fantastic pen! Filled with a blend of Pelikan blue and violet.

AZ - that's worse than my list - but I've had to work hard to get it down (and you should see some of the ones in queue).

 

But you may not show that sample of 21 without a picture over on the Eclipse thread! Wow - what a nib on that one - is it Eclipse or Warrented?

 

(a picture of 1 would be nice too).

So if you have a lot of ink,

You should get a Yink, I think.

Always looking for pens by Baird-North, Charles Ingersoll, and nibs marked "CHI"

Today:

In the shirt pocket with the Oxford ruled notebook is the Pelikan M625, "F" nib, fuilled with Sheaffer "Skrip" blue.

In the vest pocket with a Moleskine ruled cashier's notebook is the Blue Carbonesque Pilot Vanishing Point filled with the run-of-the-mill pilot blue ink cartridge.

 

Time to get that order in for some good ink. I'm really getting a hankerin' for that Noodler's Private Reserve DC Supershow Blue.

 

Cheers, Dean

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
