This will be my first Italix, and I'm very eager to try the nib.

Not a pen but I have just had a moment of madness and ordered two bottles of Pilot Iroshizuku ink - one of Tsuki yo, and one of Shin kai. $31 including international shipping seemed fairly reasonable to me. These will be my first Iro inks (outside of a couple of small samples).

Aha,...the thread refreshed for 2016.

Thanks RMN!

 

Last December I waited for a Kaeco Dia II pen to come from Toronto. At the same time, a Kaweco 14K BB nib-set (the nib pictured in my avatar) was being shipped from the UK.

This pen, with the new 14K BB installed, has been sent to Pendleton. I'm waiting for Mr. Brown to stub the double broad nib & to return my pen.

 

*Sailor 1911S, Black/gold, 14k. 0.8 mm. stub(JM) *1911S blue "Colours", 14k. H-B "M" BLS (PB)

*2 Sailor 1911S Burgundy/gold: 14k. 0.6 mm. "round-nosed" CI (MM) & 14k. 1.1 mm. CI (JM)

*Sailor Pro-Gear Slim Spec. Ed. "Fire",14k. (factory) "H-B"

Well it's not actually in the mail, but waiting...

A Sailor Pro Gear Slim Four Seasons Yukitsubaki Winter MF nib, backordered at Goldspot since Jan. 5.

 

It will be the most I spent on a pen so far and I'm wavering wildly with canceling and putting the money towards a different one at someplace where I can see what's in stock.

There's already a thread started for this. Maybe merge the two? Here's the other one: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/302112-what-pen-are-you-waiting-for-in-the-mail-2016-edition/

 

 

That said, still waiting on the vintage Eversharp Skyline I purchased from eBay. I can't wait to get it in hand and fix 'er up!

So it was you who got that Skyline Eversharp! I was not home when I should have been. Congratulations!!!

I'm waiting for a Levenger Kyoto, which I purchased for my birthday present (well at least that was my excuse), a bottle of Iroshizuku Kon-Peki for the new pen & the necessary Rhodia #16 Dotpad to begin journaling!!!!

Thank you! The cap required quite a deal of fixing (cap sleeve was loose and needed to be shellacked into place, and the derby/top was very loose as well when I took it apart--had to use a rosin-based sealant to close it up). But I got it all fixed up and it makes for a great workhorse. I will treasure it for a long, long, long long time. ^_^
