Today I am using my latest acquisition, a burgundy Parker "51" Special filled with Diamine Syrah. The medium octanium nib is ulta smooth with a perfect flow. I also have a snorkel and a Lamy 2000 inked up.

Right now, at work I have with me:

 

1. Parker Duofold Junior - Noodler's Midway Blue

2. Reform 1745 - Lamy Blue Black

3. Lamy Safari - Noodler's Blue

4. Waterman Harley Davidson - Diamine Asa Blue

5. Sensa Meridian - Noodler's Air Corp Blue Black

 

The Duofold looks like it may need a refill soon. It's laying down an anemic line.

Today is a Noodler's eye dropper pen with some BSB. (pardon the spelling mistake on the post-it note.)

Lamy Vista 1.1 - Sailor Jentle Blue/Black

Sheaffer 444X F - Noodler's Bad Blue Heron

Jinhao Libai M - J. Herbin 1670 Rouge Hematite

Sheaffer Tuckaway XF - Noodler's American Blue Eel

 

... and a bit of use of a funny little Stypen pen that I call "Mini" (because it was a promotional item from MINI USA). It has a nice nib somewhere between F and M, and a pretty long feed with a fair number of fins. It makes a perfect dip pen when I'm trying out ink samples, easy to clean and pretty long amount of writing per dip. I'm looking at dark green inks, so this guy saw action today with Diamine Sherwood Green, Evergreen, and Private Reserve Ebony Green.

 

Good night, everyone!

I'm grading exams with a Gateway Postal Senior (ruby) with a 0.9 mm left oblique cursive italic nib. Filled with Yama-Budo, a nice non-violent looking ink.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
