Conway Stewart Churchill, Black with an IB loaded with Noodler's Dragon's Napalm.

 

Took awhile to get parts but it's back in operation.

Inked for letter writing. This was written on inexpensive notebook paper, and because the Jinhao 159 is a wet nib, you see some serious spread, etc. Will be using Southworth Fine Parchment Paper to write letters to family & friends.

Pelikan M150 featuring a BLS-fine (Pendleton Brown's "ButterLine Stub-italic" fine) nib sporting Chesterfield Antique Orchid. This pen and ink combination has surprised me with an even-better-than-usual writing experience.

 

The color is dark enough to stand in for a blue-black, except it's red-black. I've been using it on legal documents for the past few days. Nice flow. Nice feel. Nice bahavior, even on cheap courtroom copier paper forms. I haven't had to switch to a ballpoint for these lately.

Bexley Elegancia - B. Nib. Inked with Diamine Sherwood Green. On Rhodia paper did experience bleedthrough & echo using this ink. Suspect with the broad nib & the deep green color as the root of the problem.

The pen in rotation today is ASA Trans-Nauka which was part of group buy on FPN. It is inked with Iroshizuku Yama Budo.

Today I am using two very different fountain pens. I choose my fountains based on how they write, and these two write terrific. The first pen is a Pilot Vanishing Point with a smooth medium 18K god nib. It write a western medium line, and the nib is slightly soft when writing.

 

The other pen is a stock Montblanc 146 from the early 1990's with medium 14k gold nib. Forget the exclusive name, this is one terrific pen. It is just the right size and weight for me, and it holds a ton of ink. It is my daily writer and it is joy to write with.
