Don't Just Tell Us About The Pen You're Using, *show* Us!

[LWJ2]

Wow, lots of neat pens here. I'm back, hopefully without the interruption of further/future ... excitement.

 

Today's pens are my Waterman CF, X-fine nib with Cosmic Cobalt and my Parker Royal Challenger, 14k No. 46 nib with Bad Black Moccasin; today's pipe is a walnut-finish Stanwell (Registered) in the pickaxe shape (01) with John B. Hayes' Balkan blend.

mhphoto: Love the look of that Retro 51. I did not know the OHTO Dude could be made to squeeze that line variation out. Is it a special nib?

 

dcpritch: That jade Duofold looks really cool.

 

Ptrero: The Invincia nib is coated. Not sure if it is lacquer or not.

Dillon those are fantastic pens! What a great variety and in marvelous condition. Having a few pens with nibs shaped by your skilled hand, I can only imagine what you may have done with these. I hope you'll post some others as you get the opportunity.

 

Here's a vintage Italian celluloid pen I restored today, a wartime Aurora Olo Lusso button filler with a fantastic steel nib:

Dcpritch, that is a very nice Olo. I didn't really post any of my vintage Italian pens this time, but I assure you, everything in the above post writes really well. I always enjoy using them.

Akstorm, a very elegant looking pen you have there, and one I've not seen or heard of before now. Very nice.

 

Ptero, the Aurora has one of the most amazing nibs I've ever used. It flexes quite easily, springs back immediately, and the flow keeps up with flex so long as the pace is even and moderate.

 

Cheers, DAVID

Thank you Pterodactylus for the welcome, yes it is a cartridge-converter pen, i will try to do a review, although i have never done before. And yes will try to upload a writing sample here tomorrow.

Hi akstorm, your pen reminds me of a more subdued Hero pen I have.

Hello,

 

I agree, they do look very similar.
