What Pen Did You Get Today?

[Tony the Tiger]

I just ordered the Lamy Studio in classic black.

My blue one (w/ 1.1mm stub) should be in this week. Gonna fill it w/ PR Black Magic Blue.

I just ordered myself a beautiful Namiki Bamboo from Richard. I can't wait to get it!

 

After two Safari, it's my first higher end FP ever!

Thank you. I'm looking at an M6XX as my next step.

Watch out for the next jump, though, it's a doozy.

A mint Visconti Millenium Arc in red #893/1000 fitted with a two-tone 18K M nib :clap1:

 

I had received it in the mail last Saturday - just after returning home from our very first year 2008 pen collector's gathering at Raf's (Grasshopper) house. Unfortunately I can only post it up today as my computer's motherboard had broken down, and due to my busy work schedule I've only managed to replace (and upgrade) the computer last night (I assemble my own computers).

 

Anyway, the pen is a beauty and writes like a dream

 

Very happy with it

Next to it is my first Visconti Traveling Inkpot.

I got a pair of Pelikanos with medium nibs (green and red).

[MacP]

Two, both Parker Vacumatics:

 

1) Oversize Canadian manufacture 1937 golden pearl with an interesting moderate-flex medium nib; and

2) 1935 Maxima, medium nib silver pearl

 

 

Mmmmmm.....

Parker 17 Lady.

I'd not realised just how tiny they were. Last time I touched one was when I was 12, so things seemed a little different then.

 

Writes beautifully, still has the chalk mark on it, and came in its original box. Definitely worth the money.

 

Regards

 

Richard.

After thinking I was done buying pens for a while, I "accidentally" bought a 1942 Parker 51 Vac in cedar blue. It ought to arrive early next week!

[klccpa]

Delta Israel 60th LE Vermeil and Lamy 2000. The Delta is stunningly beautiful and everything I hoped it would be. The Lamy is understated, as expected, and will be the one I carry in my purse instead of my Pilot VP.

Esterbrook Fountain Pen and Mechanical Pencil set in red arrived today:

The photo is from the auction. Haven't had a chance to do anything with them yet, but they both look new and unused!

 

Regards,

I already posted a review in the fountain pen review section.

I received my second Waterman Carène today, in royal blue with a F nib. These are very underrated pens, IMHO. Best,

David

[finalidid]

I got an awesome Vac and an awesomer P51. Both blue-dot specials.

I came away from the Philly pen show with three Moore pens (one a set with a pencil). Old stuff, and flexy. Oh, and a new Pelikan M400 body with two custom Binder nibs, one a left oblique cursive, and the other a medium with full flex.

 

I am returning there tomorrow when the remaining vendors will be there. Resistance is futile! Someone - please help me!

I got my Danitrio Tactical Carry II in gray from winedoc. What a hefty pen. Despite the weight, I really like it. Thanks winedoc.
