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

I knew it! I'd recognize Diamine Midnight anywhere. Oh, how I love it!

So I've already posted twice this week, but I actually got THREE new pens this week. Sorry for the Instagram-type pic but this is the best way to show all of them. I absolutely love my Decimo but it's unbelievable to me just how broad the M nib is. Has anyone else experienced the same feelings? I was so afraid that the M nib would be too fine (I usually enjoy Western M nibs) but it is actually too broad! Hopefully changing inks will fix that.

 

Also, just received my dream ink in the mail. Noodler's Navajo Turquoise!!

In this case, it is the lovely new ink rather than the pen that is the main attraction. First impressions: love it!

 

 

Have a terrible cold but will try to do a review later.

Want! My oversize in Ebonized Perl doesn't have that flexy nib!

I've been slacking off a bit, here's one of the reasons ...

 

 

This is what Katie, my lovely wife, can do with it ...

 

 

 

Cap

 

Nib -- it was dropped, I've straightened it, needs a bit more work

 

Barrel stamp -- a bit uneven, the chasing is well-worn. Most of the oxidation was removed with Bartender's Friend (similar to Bon-Ami)

Here is what I had inked one year ago today, and what I have inked today.

Not much to say, but many pens to say it with.

LWJ2, I like your Waterman's but I'm thinking the Conklin nib you have is cracked and not long for this world. I hope it lasts a while, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

 

Ivan, what's the deal?! Are you defecting to fine point nibs? I have a wide nib that'll fit your Kaweco, if that's what you need:

 

 

 

Prvt. Toter, I love looking at your sketches and doodles. What fun you must have!

 

Here are a couple of the ten pens I have inked today:
