My black Parker Sonnet F and my Gold Parker 180 M inked with Paradise Pen Company black ink.


My gold Parker 75 EF has not been working well.

1940 Parker Vacumatic Shadow Wave black and silver, w/factory stub nib. A great writer in every way. Nice flow, decent line variation, a little (not too much for me) flex. The kind of pen which makes you want to think of more things to write because writing with it is such a pleasant experience.

A demi and a full-sized parker 51 and a vacumatic. Inked with onyx black, sailor miruai, and parker quink blue respectively. <3 I love these pens. Great writers, all of them. Smooth nibs, nice ink flow and they look good too. ^_^

My first Parker Vacumatic.

Congratulations. Accent on "first". Rabbit hole, that. Good luck...

I already have the second...it's just not being used. I have to look it over. (Look at my post over in "What pens are you waiting for in the mail?")

 

Oh....and I'm using my favorite Parker 51 aero to write checks.

Today I used at first, my first Duofold... An ancient 1941 striped button filler. Arrived yesterday... Cleaning, re-sacing and it is ready to use... EXHILARATING!!!!

Look at my horse, my horse is amazing!!!

Eduardo - Nice! You must have quite a Parker collection as you seem to use different pens every week.

 

I have several striped duofolds (including the black non-striped striped duofold) but have only re-diaphramed one. Maybe I should rebuild another one or two to mix things up.

Very nice collection, and it sounds like you use them all. I like flighters too, have 25, 45, 50, 61, 180, and Sonnet. Someday would like to add a 51 flighter.

 

Today using a 61 flighter and a grey 51 vac.
