Malcolm,

That Serenity and your nib photo are, well, 'serene' would be applicable. Stunning.

 

Helen,

Love that frosted transparent Nauka. Are you enjoying it?

Bob: Though I ordered the pen with a converter, I am enjoying it more as an ED. Required just a tad bit of nib tweaking. Really like the frosted look.

 

Type-O: It is a lovely pen, and the cost is very reasonable. Trust me it is not "outta" of your league :)

Nakaya Naka-ai in olive tamenuri with oblique broad nib by John Mottishaw (21st anniversary pen with vermeil monkey roll stopper), inked with Sailor Rikyu-cha.

 

This is the first time I've inked this pen. The Rikyu-cha is a great color for it, but it doesn't shade much, even on Tomoe paper.

Rationalizing pen and ink purchases since 1967.

Mannnnn.... my Lamy Vista flaked out on me, and I had to switch to a ballpoint to fill out the form.

 

The Esterbrook SJ I got from Ron Zorn (green with 9450 firm EF posting nib) sporting vintage Sheaffer Skrip Emerald Green did good. That's a pretty cool and reliable combination.

 

Blue Platinum Plaisir with 0.3 mm nib sporting Noodler's Bay State Blue and Violet Platinum Plaisir with 0.3 mm nib sporting Noodlers Kung Te Cheng. Those pen and ink combinations work well with courthouse forms printed on lowest-bidder paper. And the colors look great.
