My brother just bought me a TWSBI Eco as he uses one himself. So grateful for the gift, can't wait for it to come in!

Vac 700 with Omas turquoise.

Have many nice pens in rotation, also demonstrators, all waiting to get back into the DC pouch but whenever I want to brighten my day the Vac somehow just stands out.

Current vintage daily users: Aurora 98p, Big Red Lucky Curve, MB622, P51, P75, Pelikan NN400.

My brand new TWSBI Diamond 580 Red & Blue with Medium nib and Pilot Iroshizuku Kon-Peki. This is a stunning combination!

Eco with Rohrer & Klingner Sepia

 

 

ECO looks beautiful with that ink and you have captured it very nicely. Edited by prashant.tikekar

Along with a quartet of "Imperial" range Sheaffers I keep three Minis and one Vac-Mini inked and jump among them based on whim. Some of the Minis have replacement nibs. All eight pens work fine for me. The Vac-mini had flow problems until I removed the shut off gasket and now it seems fine. I also keep a Pilot Stella 90S/Stargazer inked for a total of nine. I carry one of the Sheaffers or TWSBIs daily and make sure to scribble a few lines with all of the pens every second or third day.

My Vac Mini arrived today. I filled it with Noodler's Heart of Darkness ink and am running it through its paces.

Diamond 580AL Lava, medium nib, with Diamine Autumn Oak. Really stands out on the pages here at work without being too bright. It's easier on the eyes than say, Apache Sunset. Only had a sample of it so I'm going to buy a small 30ml bottle from Goulet. Beautiful ink

TWSBI Micarta, medium, just bought today! One of the last two in the shop. Came with a free notebook. Absolutely loving it. Looks and feels amazing. Solidly built and writes beautifully. Very happy as they are discontinued for some reason, I'm not sure why as I think they are the best of the lot.

      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
