Which One Will Be Your Next Fountain Pen ?

[maxmet88]

The next thing on my list is the 2015 LE Pilot VP. Toooooo pretty to pass up in that Twilight color! I'm gonna swap out the nib unit for an italic though.

I've just ordered the Kaweco Brass Sport with bronze clip, so am just settling down for the three week wait from Europe.

 

I think after that I'll get the Pilot Falcon EF customised to stub, but will need to save a little since down here our dollar is plummeting even faster than Abbott's popularity ratings..

Oath, the Aussie dollar is seriously screwed right now, makes pens so much more expensive. Back in the day when 1 AUD = 1.1 USD...

Unless I really go after that Pilot Custom 845 in vermillion, a Hakase at the end of next year.

Not anymore.

INORITE. Hate it. Buying from Europe seems a better bet than from the States, and on the upside it's nice to see the price drop when you enter 'Australia' at checkout and VAT is removed.

 

I have another new pen planned - gonna get me a Pilot Custom 823 Demo with FA nib.

The only pen I really want right now is the Pilot Custom 823, with either SF or FA nib. I've been thinking about selling some of my rarely used pens just to fund this purchase.

Well it looks like the Custom 74 is not my next major pen purchase instead I got a Platinum #3776 Century in Bourgogne with a medium nib. Whatever, my next gold nib will definitely be a Custom 74.

I just got the 823 myself, although with the M nib. I absolutely love it.

If waverly nib is also called soft fine, then it is possible to get SF nib in 823. Otherwise, no.

Both WA and FA are exclusive to a shop called Tokyo Pen Shop Quill.

Waiting for a Pelikan 805 in blue/black with a medium nib from Missing-pen.de The pen is somewhere between New York and the Midwest..... I have not gotten a new pen for 2 years... now I just can't wait!

Hello,

 

Just ordered a pelikan M400 tortoise and few TWSBIs (1 eco, 1 classic, 1 mini, 1 580, 2 vac 700), ETA is a month.

 

Best regards.

That'll be the Pelikan Souverän M800 Burnt Orange Special Edition.

All I can say is Oh My!!

[Bklyn]

a TWSBI vac 700...

Sweet.

I've got me an itch that can only be scratched with some ebonite. And flex! I'm thinking a new Edison just might be in the cards.

You will not be sorry.

[tryphon]

In my case it HAS to be a Marlen, since I just became their US and Canada distributor. Mine will be the Turandot, since it is my favorite opera and there is a family link with its author.

[zuph]

I've told myself that if I'm able to get halfway through this handwriting book, I'm going to let myself buy a TWSBI Eco w/ 1.1 stub. Of course, here I am posting on a forum, instead of working my way through the book.

[FinalEleven]

Next pen I'm currently saving up for is either a Pelikan M205 Amethyst, a Pelikan M805 Stresemann, or a Pilot Custom 823 w/ FA nib.

Recently, I've seen a Omas Paragon on a second hand website. As it was very cheap, I called the seller to have a look on it. It's now done and I'm happy not to have bought it directly : it was no Paragon but a Milord which is very small, plastic pen with a steel nib. Impossible to see the difference on the pictures and the pen was said to be a Paragon .... I saved 50 .....

Sailor 1911 standard, medium nib. Probably one of the red ones, either maroon or scarlet. Birthday coming up.....
