This one might be better suited for avatar use Uncle Red! :)

That's definitely me, manly and pesto sauce green. :)

Hulk? :P

 

 

Hi David,
Those gold Edison nibs look pretty desirable!

 

attika - where do you get those nice Diamine glass bottles? They don't look like the ones regularly offered.

I've bought them form store in Budapest. I don't know if they only have these or the plastic ones as well, but whenever I've ordered from there I got them in a glass bottle.
The only plastic bottle I have - Sargasso Sea - is what I got from a great FPN member in the UK.

Those Diamine bottles look like the 1 fluid ounce bottles (nominally 28.4ml, but which can be filled to 30ml) used by Diamine for some 'private label' inks such as Yard-O-Led branded ink, also for the 30ml size of Registrar's Ink (at least in the picture on the Diamine web site, which has an incorrect aspect ratio).

 

The regular range of Diamine fountain pen inks is in 30ml plastic bottles or 80ml square base glass bottles.

Yes David, those are the bottles. I've got all my Diamine inks in those so far...(china blue, midnight, onyx, chocolate brown, ancient copper, oxblood)

 

It looks like your shop has made special arrangements with Diamine to buy the regular range of Diamine fountain pen inks in 30ml glass bottles. As Saskia notes, these small glass bottles are not routinely used for Diamine fountain pen ink.

@Uncle Red

I almost thought you would never choose an avatar.

You chosen it wisely. :bunny01:

I love it.

 

@Attila

I get more and more the impression that you are a sheen junkie ;)

I'm feeling like a very small, terrified mouse right now.

Breathe. Take one step at a time. Don't sweat the small stuff. You're not getting older, you are only moving through time. Be calm and positive.

So... I might have got a new pen again...

A Namiki Falcon. (Yes, it is still branded as Namiki instead of Pilot. They renamed it recently, did they not? )

The pen is so easy to mess up with finger prints and dirty hands, and even paper fluff. :( So pretty!

 

Ink used is Diamine Ancient Copper.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

The Falcon is one great pen, I love mine. They did rename it recently but for some reason they still sell the old version along with the new one. I don't really like the version with rhodium accent so I was glad they didn't discontinue it, as I bought mine a bit after it was renamed.
