I am waiting for a couple of pens. Lamy Safari Dark Lilac EF and Lamy Safari Petrol Medium, Pilot Prera clear (EF nib), Pilot Penmanship clear (Fine nib), Pilot Kakuno(M nib) and pilot parallel 1.5mm.

I am eager to try out all the various nibs with my ink samples :D

Since I referred to it in another thread, I am waiting patiently on an S T Dupont Line D Atelier in the deep purple shade of chinese lacquer.

Lovely finish. I would pay good money for a Fidelio in this color.

Jinhao 500, after I saw sbrebrowns review.

I just couldn't resist considering how cheap it is

A metal Parker frontier. It's gonna be my third one, as I already have the black and blue plastic ones. I just LOVE those frontiers, they're such dependable, wet, smooth, and consistent writers.

A quartet of Estie Dollar pens, all with medium nibs from the auction site.

Also a quartet of 3rd-tier fixer-uppers, also from the Bay of E.

Pilot Custom 823. I lost mine on Saturday (I left it in a shopping cart after grocery shopping), so, after verifying that it was, indeed, lost, I ordered a replacement. Too good a pen to live without.

Current Daily Carry: Pilot Custom 743 with 14k Posting nib (Sailor Kiwa-Guro), Sailor 1911L Realo Champagne with 21k Extra Fine nib (Sailor Tokiwa-Matsu). Platinum Century 3776 Bourgogne (Diamine Syrah), Nakaya Portable Writer Midori with 14k Extra Extra Fine nib (Lamy Peridot), Pilot Vanishing Point Stealth Black with Extra Fine nib unit (Pilot Blue Black), a dozen Nockco DotDash index cards of various sizes and a Traveler's Notebook.

Late in January I laid down a deposit on a bit of jewellery, a small hand-engraving in sterling silver plated in gold. I liked it.

 

As a bonus, the engraving comes wrapped around a free pen :) and at last is in the mail to me, due in a day or two. The engraving is of pelicans which for some reason leads them to call it an M900 Toledo. Whatever, I am looking forward to a Pelikan in the family.

I await a pack of Jinhao 992s. They're supposed to arrive some time between this coming Monday and June 20. Plenty of leeway in there.

 

I fell off the wagon, and after this I'll have to clamber back up on it and try to stop accumulating pens and ink and similar items :blush: .

I just ordered Lamy Al Star xf charged green on sale. Last year's color = good price. I enjoy the xf on work paper. Economical but very trustable.

Parker Sonnet Rollerball in Chinese Lacquer Amber. Nothing wrong with rollerballs. :D

 

Each lacquered pen comes in a different color, so I have no idea what the color will be. I do hope its dark amber. :D

And they have arrived today, days before the earliest they were supposed to have arrived :) . Well, this is good. I'll have something new to play with over the weekend. Now to climb back up on that wagon.

Thank goodness with the Jinhao 992 it was not a deep fall off the wagon. You probably still have some spending change in your pocket! :rolleyes: I trust you will enjoy your 992's
