Generally a TWSBI Diamond 580 Silver <EF> filled with Diamine Merlot, but for fancier occasions a clear transparent Pilot 823 <F> with Herbin Perle Noire.

For about 16 months I didn't carry anything out because I was mostly not going out. Yeah, if Covid-19 had gotten me I would have been very unlikely to have survived.

 

But I did go out recently and what I carried was pretty much what I was carrying around with me when I first replied to this topic over four years ago.

 

I had a Sheaffer Javelin filled with Noodler's Red/Black ink, and a Dollar pen (the piston fillers from Pakistan) filled with a three ink mixture. The three ink mixture is 1:1:1 = Pelikan 4001 Brilliant Black : Noodler's Borealis Black : Noodler's Black. It was great to get out and use my fountain pens outside of the house.

 

I used to take two fountain pens to meetings, but all of my meetings have been virtual for 16 months. The meetings may not become in-person again for a while longer.

 

On a sacred quest for the perfect blue ink mixture!

Two vintage Sheaffer Oversize Balance vac fill, one brown and one green when going once per week to the office.

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time
