Which One Will Be Your Next Fountain Pen ?

[Kiaxa]

Been thinking really hard about getting a Martemodena Delta. I think I'll just go for it. I have really fell in love with the Nuova Galleria in Ocean

Each time I will use that pen, I'll remember that bloody day in Brussels .....

Quite possibly a Faber-Castell Loom. I hear such good things about their nibs. (I'd really like an Ondoro in wood, but my budget would prefer I start with a cheaper model.)

[torstar]

1.5 mm and 2.4 mm Pilot Parallel for me

 

I'm planning on starting to learn Italic writing

 

Of course, if that plan succeeds, the 3.8mm and the 6.0mm will be there soon

Still waiting for my Platinum 3776 to arrive (two weeks now!!) but I'm going to pull the trigger on a Pilot Custom 823 very soon!

 

Yes - I've got it bad

Well ..... It's so rare here to have someone saying that he has enough pens ..... Most of the time, the correct amount of pens to own is N+1 ( N being the quantity you already have) .......

I am deeply saddened by the turn of events. I can't imagine how much this affects the people in Brussels (the whole city).

The only way to fight it is with love. And as far as I have seen, they are succeeding handsomely, just like in Norway 2011. A couple of years from now, that pen is hopefully going to symbolise mourning and coming-togetherness, rather than sorrow and fear.

The M800 Grand Place falls into this category....

The pen symbolizes one of Belgium's architectural treasures...

In light of the tragedy that befell the city of Brussels....the pen has a much deeper respect than simply a fine writing instrument....

 

Always try to get the dibs...on fountain pens with EF nibs!!

[Mastiff]

Probably another MB WE. Havn't decided which one yet!

[minassamy]

I'm just thinking about a Waterman

Either a Carene or a Hemisphere

[VivienR]

Will buy a Sailor 1911 Junior Transparent. Its a cheap one, so it will not hurt my wallet. And after that maybe an another 1911 Large, but I also eyeing with a few Waldmann.

For me, it's probably going to be one of the new Dark Lilac Safaris (yum). And maybe, since I lost a couple of pens recently I may pick up a replacement for at least one of them (the Noodler's Konrad) -- can't get Red Mesa Tortoise anymore, so I have to decide on color, and may instead splurge a bit and get another ebonite one (but waffling because I'm not overly enamored of the Dixies and keep hoping that Nathan will put out some in the really cool Neponset ebonite blanks; the Neponsets are too big for my hand, but some of the ebonite colors of them were drool-worthy). Also waffling about whether I can afford to get a replacement for the other pen I lost -- a Pelikan m200 Café Crème....

I see posts here for M200's and that is a great buy. A super piston filler that writes very well and makes a great every day pen. If something happens to it you will be sad(or furious) but not crushed. Same for the P200. Same performance in a cartridge filler for people that travel a lot.

 

For me, I would like a Pilot Custom 823 however Pilot's iffy service in Canada makes me leery. I also would really like to find a Pelikan M605 Blue and Black for a reasonable price.

What color

 

The listing says gray, but it looks quite a bit darker in the image. Since I wasn't aiming for a particular color, I'll be happy if it's gray, slate, whatever.

There was a period of some years when I bought no new pens. From about summer 2014 to now the pace kicked into high gear. Now I think it is time to slow down again and enjoy what I have (plus the three pens on order yet to arrive).

 

In addition to pens already on order, I think my next pens might be pens that are currently rumored to come, so perhaps and depending on how they look and the price:

 

Next MB writers edition

 

Lamy 2000 anniversary edition if there ever will be such a pen
