What Pen Did You Get Today?

Hero 100.

Although I have no other pen with a fine nib, I quite like writing with it.

From Andy Abbott, right here on our Marketplace, an old Montblanc 221 with a monster oblique nib. Super smooth! Thanks Andy!

Hi,

 

A Luxor piston filler looks like 60s vintage maybe earlier, no idea what model but fills and writes OK with a slightly flexible nib.

Two Guiders from satish this morning. Great pens for the price.

 

Also picked up a reform 1745 a week or so ago, not really my cup of tea.

1. Pilot 78G with a "broad/stubby" nib. Smallish, but smooth and a marvelous writer! $12!

 

2. Platinum Preppy. EF and smooth!! $3!

 

Who says you have to stop buying pens when the economy tanks! (Both from Isellpens.com)

 

Cheers,

A Conway Stewart Nightingale. This picture shows the pen larger than actual size. In fact, it's a very small pen -- Dinkie-sized.

SHOULD BE A BLUE PILOT VANISHING POINT WAITING FOR ME AT THE HOUSE AFTER WORK

[Bill Smith]

I got not a pen but a 14k gold nib assembly for a Parker 45 to replace the current unit that had some issues. I now have a nice smooth writing '60s vintage pen.

A Parker Jotter in blue to use as my "Can I use you pen"" pen. First ball point I have used in a long time... Simply wretched.

My wife bought me a 149 today.
