This is the sequel to the old topic:

 

Don't Just Tell Us About The Pen You're Using, *show* Us! - 2015

 

The old topic was again becoming very large and reacting sluggish.

 

 

The link to the last page of the old topic (now locked) is:

 

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/282096-dont-just-tell-us-about-the-pen-youre-using-show-us-2015/page-128

 

 

No doubt this topic will be as exciting as the old.

The old topic will be -un-pinned- after about 2 weeks so as not to clutter the page too much with pinned topics.

 

Please don't forget to change your subscriptions from the old to the new page (if you had one installed)

 

 

Enjoy

I got this along with the Gama Hawk a while back when Asa Pens was having the group buy with the Jowo nibs. It's huge size makes it quite comfortable to write with, but it doesn't really leave my desk due to the fact that the pen's enormity doesn't scream "traveler."

Congrats! I had my eyes on this one! ;)

 

There's actually a very similar one (a little different model) on the same website where this one was advertised. ;)

Another gorgeous pen. That's truly regal looking. I don't know why, but it reminds me of an elephant. Maybe the clip? (but don't see how) It just has that solidity, stateliness and splendor. Looks big, too.

I am continually amazed that everyone has such nice pens. So, lowering the tone considerably, this is what I was playing with for a bit today. Frankenstein-like but it seems to work okay. Please forgive the atrocious handwriting. I know nothing of calligraphy.

Esties with Osmiroid!!! Love that combination. I rock that periodically too. Nice green dollar! The only Dollar pen I have is black and looks more like a banana than a pen. Sigh.

Houston, now THAT'S a nib! I'm not familiar with the imprint on the nib as it is different from other OMAS nibs I've seen; it doesn't seem possible to have a nib that would match the beauty of the Arco celluloid, but that one does it. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

 

Cardboard_Tube - I had forgotten the Osmiroid nibs would screw into an Esterbrook section, nicely done. I was using an Estie earlier this week, a green one that doesn't have near the depth of yours. Believe me there's no shame in using any pen that works, much less an Esterbrook. Great writing, too.

 

Here's what I'm using in the office today:
