  That is a beautiful pen, @Mercian. I missed the boat on the MKI Urban.  I had just bought my house when the fp came out, and then other shiny things distracted me. I have clearly been remiss in my attention.

Thank you!

I am now🤞 and hoping very hard that you will take a photo that shows your Cross ATX, Parker IM, and Diplomat Viper all together, and upload it here ;)

@Mercian, I haven’t bought the Viper yet (my next post in another thread will explain why), but when I do, I have that photo shoot planned!

 That’s a tray of pens that I would love to get to know. What a beautiful assortment of blues!  Every single pen is a stunner. Which is your favorite one?

  It’s a little lighter, and I haven’t seen it outline yet- I’ll double check on Cosmo Snow.

If I had to pick one, it would be the Waterman's Patrician, followed closely by the Montblanc Blue Hour.

  The Patrician in that “turquoise” colorway  is the first one that caught my eye, followed by the Blue Hour, then the Wahl-Eversharp. What is the one with the figured clip on the right,  next to the Wahl-Eversharp?

I think I would pick the Wahl-Eversharp Lapis. It would go nicely with my Brazilian Green one. 🤗

That's an attractive looking pen!  I don't know anything about that brand.  How heavy is it? (Looks to be a metal body and cap.)

"It's very nice, but frankly, when I signed that list for a P-51, what I had in mind was a fountain pen."
