Thank you. Photo taken with my phone. I post photos in hopes more people will do the same, especially of unusual or rare pens.

+1. That will contribute to our learning process.

Pentel EnerGel XLRN4 Needle-Point Gel Refill - 0.4 mm - Blue Black

Waterman Super Cartouche (glass cartridge pen, ca. 1952) with a fine nib (on the borderline, I'd say, between springy and flexy), filled with Waterman Inspired Blue. I acquired this pen mainly because of its sleek appearance and the historical interest of the filling system, but it has quickly become one of my favorite writers, and has helped spur my interest in other vintage and "modern vintage" Watermans.

I like the weight of a brass pen and have been fond of the Jinhao X450. Someone posted on the site about an X350 and mentioned it is a brass pen so I bought one and am very happy with it.

I have discovered Pentel EnerGel LR7-6C refills that I use for photography field notes in Parker 75 family fiber tip pens (Parker doesn't make the fiber tip refills any more). I put a small round headed screw in the end of the refills to form a perfect fit.

So far today it's been the Parker Vector Looney Toons "Sylvester" pen, F nib, still with Noodler's #41 Brown.

But in case I need a pen for later, I've got the Pelikan M120 Iconic Blue, M nib, still with Pelikan 4001 Blue Black at hand.

Inspired by @Amberjack, I got my Lamy Al-Star Coffee brown pen, and put a 1.1mm italic nib. Today it was filled with Sheaffer The Write Kind of Coffee, coffee scented brown ink. I’m using the ink for the first time.

  I found that the Shaeffer Coffee ink really, really feathered badly.  The smell to me was very sweet and cloying.  In summary I hated the ink! (Hope ou have better luck.)

I can't remember who inspired this, but about a month ago someone mentioned they were using maybe a Waterman Brown in a vintage pen and I decided to order J Herbin Lie de The as my first true brown.  I just put it in my Conway Stewart 15 and I am really liking the combination.

You have a nice handwriting Stompie... 👍😀

Always glad to see a photo and writing sample...👍

That is a beautiful pen!  I don't recognize the brand; what is it?
