Lol, nice pen indeed! Made me smile too. Hope it brings luck with lottery, business or $ generally!

 

That pen makes me think it should be set up with ink to check for counterfeit bills.... :rolleyes:

For me, so far today, just two:

Pelikan M405 EF (the striated blue one) with Edelstein Amethyst (because I was trying really hard not to just go the easy convenient route and just refill it with Edelstein Tanzanite...).

Korean-made "Pilot", EF or F, with Noodler's Boston Brahmin Blue LE.

Using my two pen purchases from this year so far, a Moore L-72 and a Parker 45. The Moore just needed a new sac and some cleaning, the Parker works very well after some nib tweakage.

Great pen...I was planning to get it and then saw the Sailor with naginata togi nib. I had to get that first...I am hearing nothing but good things about 823 :)

Dream, take one step at a time and achieve. :)

The 823 is a wonderful pen...but then, so is the Sailor. :)

 

Let us know how you get on with it.
