I'm using 4 everyday pens that I love- trying to decide which I can part with to buy higher quality collectible pens. I'm trying to keep my collection at 100 pens, so when I get a better pen, I have to sell one that I also once considered worthy of my little collection.

 

Parker 15 - fine nib, blue & chrome, 100% dependable always. Small, perfect purse pen!

 

Sheaffer Skripsert 500 - very nice writing pen with a small conical nib, a pleasure to use.

 

Cross matte gray Century- fine gold-plated nib, unknown emblem. I do not care for pens with a company symbol, but this is a small emblem that matches well, and they pen is a wonderful smooth writer.

 

Parker Super 21- extra fine nib. Beautiful pen in tip-top condition, but it has someone else's name on it. It's not a deep inscription, I've thought about trying to rub it out, but it's a really beautiful teal and chrome and I don't want to ruin it.

 

I guess that's a sign of how much I love using fountain pens - that I have trouble deciding which to sell and they are among the least desirable pens I have!

Tonight, I took the red/black M150 with Lamy Coral. I like to imagine the red/black is considered 'frivolous' in staid German business circles, eliciting the odd raised eyebrow.
