Great shot, Rosey. I don't use my Safaris nearly as much as I used to, but I would still snatch up one of those lime greens if given the chance. Enjoy!

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

It was yesterday but I was too busy to post it then. A black S. T. Dupont Fidelio from Bryant Greer, with a very smooth extra-fine nib. It's a great size for me and I love how smooth the nib is for such a fine size, you don't often get them that way. And Bryant threw in a bunch of Visconti ink cartridges in assorted colors too! :thumbup:

Thanks Thornton! I tend to forget about using my Safari's too and then I'll pick one up and start using it and realize how much fun I have with them. Then the bug hits and I'm on the search for the Limited Edition I've missed. I just saw a lime Safari on the FPN Marketplace last week, but it's sold already! I guess you have to act quick to get one.

 

I'm still waiting on my Pelikan 205... too bad today was a postal holiday!

The second of the Pelikan 400s (OM nib) that I ordered a couple of weeks ago. It is a MUCH smoother writer than the first one. The first one has a bit of tooth. It is a very very wet writer - almost a broad line rather than a medium. Very very happy with it.

I got 2 Parker Reflex today. 1 fountain pen and 1 ball pen. The nib of the fountain pen is quite smooth but the rubber section of this pen became white due to age. It should be my good knock-around pen.

TWSBI Diamond 530 with a medium nib!! Promptly inked with a eclat de saphir.

"No one can be a great thinker who does not recognize that as a thinker it is his first duty to follow his intellect to whatever conclusions it may lead. Truth gains more even by the errors of one who, with due study, and preparation, thinks for himself, than by the true opinions of those who only hold them because they do not suffer themselves to think." -J.S. Mill, On Liberty

A great Danitrio Densho raw ebonite. I got this one from a fellow member here. Now I understand why they are so difficult to find.
