Many pens today, more than I usually have inked at any given time. The only one not depicted is my Swan Safety Screw Cap 2B (vest size with no clip, eyedropper btw) which is in my left jacket waist pocket, filled with Noodlers Black Swan ( :) ) in Australian Roses (2012 formulation if that makes any difference).

Another Swan (unidentified model) lever fill screw cap with gold decorative band around the lever area in my outer breast pocket filled with Pelikan 4001 royal blue.

A Noodlers nib creaper in bumblebee filled with heart of darkness (brought to work to be loaned to a colleague to try out).

Noodlers Ahab clear, in eyedropper form (with no O-ring because it broke and I can't find a replacement :( ) also with heart of darkness.

Noodlers Konrad 1820 Essex, with the blue nosed bear.

Ebonite Konrad in (what used to be the old version of) red rebellion with Purple Heart.

And a Noodlers neponset in rebellion red with sequoia green.

 

I will photograph and include writing samples if asked. But this post is already picture and text heavy.

That beautiful tie reminds me of the Nero Wolfe tie seen on the TV series some yrs ago. Like your collection of Noodler's.

There are many more, but that's just today :)

 

I've really enjoyed using them, my first Noodlers was an Ahab in spring of 2012, it set me on my path of flex writing ;)

Could you give us a writing sample of the LV Rouge Libertin? I don't think it has ever been reviewed here. I have the two LV blues. Thanks!

Rationalizing pen and ink purchases since 1967.

Delta Vintage Series - broad nib. Inked with Iroshizuku Kon Peki (as an eyedropper)

**************************

 

It is now nightfall and I'm using the Jinhao 1200 Executive with broad nib. Inked with Chesterfield Antique Raspberry. Some would say it is too much bling, but its the bling that I find interesting. I've done some nib smoothing, and also made the nib wetter.
