I picked this little gem up from the Post Office this morning. Ranga Model 8 Premium Ebonite (Group Buy) - B. Nib ED. Inked with Private Reserve Avocado. Will be enjoying it for the day :)

Currently my only pen until I can figure out whats going on with my Parker Sonnet. After which I hope to own a Monteverde Impressa, a Lamy Al-Star and a Conklin Durograph this year (perhaps a Pilot Metropolitan for work etc.)

 

Then I can replace all my pens with Fountain Pens as I no longer get fatigue when writing with a Fountain Pen.

Lamy Safari (Dark Lilac), F nib -- Lamy Dark Lilac (possibly slightly diluted).

Sheaffer Snorkel (black), factory stub -- diluted vintage Skrip Peacock.

Noodler's Charlie, flex nib -- slightly diluted Noodler's Baystate Blue.

 

That's so far....

Osmia 14K semi-flex pen nr. 3 - F nib.

Pen number 773.

 

I just got it this wednesday from my client, a sweet old woman whom I help every week. This pen is a treasure because it's from her :)

In rotation today is Pilot 78G – B Stub Nib inked with Lamy Turquoise Ink. This ink is my all time favourite Turquoise ink and it was also my first turquoise ink.



Pilot Stubs are more like Cursive Italics and have amazing line variation.

Huashilai with a #5 fine/med nib. Inked with Diamine Sherwood Green; reasonable shading. Nib is pretty smooth with good ink flow & no skipping.

I have been meaning to travel off lately and thus today’s thought is inspired from travel. The thought is kinda a reminder to myself to get a travel plan in place and the target is to travel to Cherrapunji and nearby areas and also get to see living root bridges.



The thought for today was penned down via Kaweco Sports Skyline inked with Diamine Monaco Red. It is a beautiful mint coloured special edition pen and is now also available in India.

These pen are amazing value for money. And are especially suited for rough usage.

Own the same Kaweco, but without the clip. Those snaps encourage me to reconsider purchasing the clip. :)

I hate my new office! It's a dump and my desk sucks compared to my last office and desk. I thought I'd bring a little regal and elegance in here! Wahl-Eversharp Decoband Oversized with superflex nib. The lighting in here is terrible but it is the Rosewood Ebonite.

For me it's a very basic Kanwrite Kingdom with a Kanwrite steel SemiFlex nib, ink guzzler and smelly but Kryptonite proof, dropped a few times , absolutely nothing happened, pretty good for EDC.

ONYX, a lovely ebonite pen from Guider Pens in use today which is inked with home-brew mix of Camlin Scarlet Red and Camlin Royal Blue.



The nib on this has been replaced with Wality #8 nib which is self grind to Medium Cursive Italic.


The word of the day is : Intransigence

Happy Bastille Day to whomever among our members may be celebrating it! :happyberet:

 

I'm using this Sheaffer Imperial touchdown filler with Akkerman Shocking Blue. Not sure what's supposed to be shocking about it, but it's a nice rich color.
