What Pen Are You Waiting For In The Mail 2016

[ShortRound131]

Pilot Vanishing Point, Medium Nib, in Black Carbonesque.

 

Should take delivery tomorrow! My first VP after trying one out a few months ago at the Dallas Pen Show.

[FOUR X FOUR]

Sailor professional gear imperial black. M nib it's coming from the N. pole.

[goldshirt9]

A Jinhao x450 Fountain pen from Hong Kong, found these pens to be trusty and a lovely write.

A HUGO BOSS BLACK AND SILVER FOUNTAIN PEN, a gamble on this one as this is all I have to go on.

[MoonageDaydream]

Noodler's Konrad in Qufu Jade. Really looking forward to my first flex nib!

I ordered the Pilot Custom 823 amber from Amazon. I bought it from a shop in Japan. I also applied for an Amazon visa card and that brought the price down to $143.07 .

[Manalto]

Nice pen, Paul. I had my eye on that one too; I like the amber.

 

I'm waiting for a TWSBI Diamond 580 AL because I wanted a piston-filler as a carry pen. I hope the flow issues I've read about are not the norm and/or are fixable.

I had a nice surprise this morning. One of our PhD students just returned from an overseas conference and presented me with a white Lamy Safari - complete with convertor too!

[windibd]

The white Kakunos and the Retro Pop Metropolitans. Barring any problems they should arrive within two months (I live in a far-flung country).

[Nikaa]

Bexley Gaston's Angels with stub.....

I guess I'm gonna have to wait a little.....

[invisuu]

Pelikan M400 Brown Tortoise...the wait is pain and the pain is real.

[mitto]

A Pelikan M600 (OB nib) and a Eversharp Skyline demi with nice flexy nib.

[Nikaa]

the wait is pain and the pain is real.

 

I agree! My pen has a long way to go, many miles, Ocean ... eh ..

My favorite pen that I use all the time is a Jinhao X450. Black with gold trim.

[chromantic]

Actually, I bought a few vintage mech pencils that I'm waiting on. One, a little faux blue Lapis ring top, was in a 2-lot with a small (3 1/8" L) black and white celluloid FP. Don't see a lever in the photos so probably a bulb filler like the teeny little red one I got recently. Should be here in a couple days.

[HoosierGeek]

I'm still waiting on a Kaigelu 316 from eBay that I bought a month ago - should be here by January 6.

 

And a Lamy 2000 EF I just ordered this morning - my first gold nib pen!

[Pichak]

I am waiting for an ivory Pilot Prera. I like to always have a small pen in my pocket.

[mehandiratta]

Kaweco Racing Sport Orange...

[Valkyrii]

Conid Bulkfiller Cappuccino

[chromantic]

This unidentified Parker, possibly a Challenger?

 

[BillH]

Not waiting anymore, it came today... Franklin-Christoph P66 Antique Glass with a Medium Cursive Italic nib. Haven't decided on the ink to eyedropper it with. In time, in time...

 

I know, it's not a Pelikan. Not -all- my pens have beaks
