That's an Al-Star?

It is: An authentic Al Star Ocean Blue.

 

I also have got a Lamy Vista, that I use with lamy blue ink and a lamy Nexx M with turquoise cap, that I use with lamy turquoise ink.

Very nice Persona, and your photos do a nice job of capturing the contrast. Swiss?

So happy Fountain pen day to everybody.

So last week I bought this Lamy Studio Palladium with a fine gold nib, in a closeout for a insane good price. It was sad to note that the nib wrote much broader than a typical fine would.

 

Today I found some courage to grind down the tip to a real fine nib, and it worked!

 

Maybe I will work in the smoothness a bit more later, but now it writes very nice.

 

I post this here just because I am super happy with this pen.

Here are my LAMYs :)

Both safari and vista have a medium nib. Both are inked up with Parker Quink black.

This is not Bauhaus, it's LeCorbusier.

Actually I almost would have said Gerrit Rietveld (reminded me a bit of his house in Utrecht), but I was not sure he is that well known.

Or perhaps Dudok...

      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
