Okami, that is beautiful script! And please tell me about the Ruthenium BB nib you have - how did such a thing end up on an Edison?!?!

 

akustyk and attika89, nice MB 146s! I'm a big fan of the 146 - it was my very first fountain pen 22 years ago. I have two now: the original, which has a sweet writing M nib, and the one below, just returned from FPN's Dillo with a marvelous stub nib.

 

GClef, where do you come up with these eBay "deals"!!!

 

Rev, don't get too crazy with those inks.

Perfect to study organic chemistry with!

The ink is iroshi Asa Gao, and the notebook is a national brand computation notebook, a favorite of mine.

 

Aah, memories... have you tried cooking your own ink in the lab?

 

Here's what I'm using at the moment:

A really gorgeous Corona! I've been eying it for a while. Your writing sample certainly nudges me towards it a bit further .

Somehow, I keep coming back to my Montblanc 344. It is the only pen that I truly feel like I got a super deal on. I bought it NOS, which is somewhat rare for this type of pen. I love it so much. I wish such wonderful nibs were still available on new pens.

Thanks Uncle Red!

To be honest I did not like the Chocolate Brown as much as I expected, until I used it with this wider wet nib. The shades come out nicely now.

But you know, you cannot go wrong with Pendleton. I can attest many times over that he does great work.

You push that bulb lookin thing at the end and it's like a vacumatic, ink is sucked into the resevoir.

Hi there, this is my second contribution to this great post, and it's not even my pen or/and handwriting!

 

Yesterday was my girlfriend's birthday, and she got this:

She loves her new pen. I think I'm slowly turning her into one of us!

 

Before I forget, the pen is a Parker 45 Harlequin with a Shield pattern and the ink is Pilot Blue.

Very nice! I didn't even know there was such a pattern!

Yes! That's what it's called a "breather tube"! I had a brain fart and couldn't think of the name of that thing.
