Montegrappa Fortuna White in ruthenium trim with a medium nib, inked with Namiki black.

 

A very distinctive and stark-looking pen. Extremely smooth writer, particularly for a steel nib.

 

 

Love your script!

5280 is a brand owned by Paradise Pen:

 

 

 

Five thousand two hundred and eighty feet. That is the elevation of Denver, Colorado, the city to which the 5280 fine pens collection pays tribute. Situated a mile above sea level, the city is plentiful with rich culture and beautiful nature, but also home to Paradise Pen Company. The Denver pen company, in wanting to purvey its own exceptional brand of writing instruments, has developed a line of pens and accessories called 5280. 5280 pens, offered in ball point, fountain and roller ball, are designed to celebrate the soaring Denver altitude and the company's attitude of bringing quality to new heights.

That's a pretty pen. I haven't seen that before. Swooning over the penmanship as usual. That Visconti turquoise really pops on that cream paper.

I come on this site, especially this post to see what people have posted. I am amazed, jealous and frustrated all at the same time. All these beautiful pens and amazing penmanship.

The Platignum pen that's housing the cali nibs is a cheap plastic school pen kind. I 'm wondering if any other good pen will adopt the nibs. May be that will motivate me to learn Caligraphy. For now, for me its meh...
