Today I used my Parker Sonnet Dark Grey Lacquer GT, filled with Sailor Jentle Ultramarine.

Well, it has been three weeks writing with my Parker 95. It is rare that I look forward to cleaning and putting away

one of my collection so much. The function is excellent, and I should enjoy using it. However, the slender barrel

is uncomfortable and unpleasant. My Reform 1745 is similarly slender, but I think, as a Parker collector, my Parker

95 is also disappointing.

 

I am looking forward to a nice, fat LAMY Al-Star. Or a Duofold Sr, if it ever come home.

Technically still the 51, 45 and the new acquisition, the red duofold jr (1928 I've been told)...

To be perfectly honest.... just the Duofold... It's new... I can't help myself!

Hey Rocky,

 

A little late to the thread. I've been using my '49 - 51 Flighter with a 1.4 Minuskin stub nib.

 

Another fav is my cedar Blue/Lustraloy and GT '46 med nib 51 vac and

 

'40 Golden Web Vac Jr. flexie fine.

 

Pelikans are good too, but I just LOVE Parkers!

Parker jotter ballpen, for fountainpen i prefer pen with international cartridge or Sheaffer which for me is the must. I test a duofod in a shop, but it is very stiff to write. But the new Quinkflow refills are fantastic.

Inked my brand new Vector flighter (med nib) with the Quink Blue cartridge that came with it. And I have my Parker 95 flighter, w/ GT, fine nib, inked with R&K Salix.
