What nib wrote that? It's gorgeous!

Each pen was used for each pic. The pic with all three was written with all of them. Each pen wrote a word and I rotated starting with the Wahl Eversharp Decoband, Montblanc 149 and Pelikan M805 Stresseman. Thank you for your kind words. I wish I had better handwriting like a lot of people on here. I'm actually quite jealous. Owning these pens reminds me of when I I owned expensive guitars. I could play, but never really well. My handwriting is the same.

 

 

A stunning trio. It's hard to feel bored when these guys are at your side (and hand). :)

 

Thank you! The Pelikan is my least favorite of the three. Sadly it spends most of its time in my pen box. I love my Pelikan 100 and 100n's much more. Christof spoiled me with awesome ones with fantastic nibs. Nothing exciting happened yeasterday so I had nothing to write in my journal, so I got bored and played around with them and felt like showing them off to you guys.

 

 

Quite witty!

Thanks! I have my moments. There aren't many of them. My humor is very self-deprecating.

Thanks Eli for your kind words. Still a long journey ahead of me, but happy to be along the road to improve my handwriting!

 

Houston, thanks for the heads-up, I loved that version!

Fountain pen novice. I am aquiring pens at a frightening pace, I am afraid it might be an addiction... I see I am not alone here on FPN! Latest acquisitions - Platinum 3776 Kumpoo with Diamine Eau de Nil, Opus 88 Koloro inked with Diamine November Rain, Franklin-Christoph Model Pocket 66 prototype inked with Franklin-Christoph Honeycomb.

Parker Flighter GT and Filofax. The chrome and orange is a nice combination, imho.

Very nice indeed! Thanks for sharing!

Very nice! The script's looking much more cheerful than the words themselves.

Fantastic! Love it!

Using my dad's Parker Duofold from around the time I was born (I'm a youngin', so it's only from the early 90s). He used it when he was still an attorney (he's a judge now and everything is electronic filing anyway) so he was happy to let me keep it.

 

He (lovingly) joked that it only makes sense, as we're both in our 20s, cost him a lot of money, and aren't much use :lol:

 

As I'm now transitioning to practice, it's a nice little heritage pen - hopefully some of its acquired lawyer secrets rub off on me in time.

Haven't posted in a while, but this is such an exciting thread, and I love coming back to it. So much great stuff here! Here's my Parker 65 with a factory italic nib, Sailor Jentle Apricot ink, a nice pairing, I think.

Gama Airborne which is inked with Rohrer & Kilngner Verdura. The nib is Ambitious and it is a wet writer eyedropper pen. This pen is an homage to Eversharp Skyline.
