Parker 51 desk pen, Sheaffer Snorkel desk oen. Other pens I put away, unless I dont care if they are damaged.

Pilot Pluminix I bought by mistake for a Plumix, still in its packet.

 

'My' desk is currently the family kitchen table, so I never keep pens out.

On the desk at work, a Watermans C/F desk pen.

On the PC desk here, an uninked P45 in black lacquer and GT with a barrel scratch, bought cheaply for the B nib, a P61 Flighter felt tip, a Pelikan M800 Renaissance Brown & GT and a black & CT Lamy Accent with the recently replaced cap.

Pen du jour is a black TWSBI Eco 1.1 filled with Super 5 Frankfurt. (Yesterday it was a clear one with Lie de Thé.)

 

There's also a Jinhao 992 that arrived a few days ago - filled it with Sailor Doyou. I'm taking it out drawing (with sketchbook and watercolours) because the Doyou appears to be water resistant!

 

Pilot Plumix and a Pilot Prera - contemplating a nib swap. The Prera's M nib, the only 'choice' one has at Officeworks) is sooooo... boring, Love the Plumix nib, but the pen itself not so much.

Will work for pens... :unsure:

Today four of the five original pens I had with me, before I started using pens daily: Man 100, m400, Parker Sonnets, now with new steel nibs, and behaving which is unusual. When I get a Laureat and transplant the section I'll have all five originals, working.

Lying on my desk, literally rather than in any other container, and so in immediate use I have an Onoto 6000, S T Dupont Line D Atelier, and Aurora 88P. Pen cases contain another seven inked options on or about the same desk.

At the moment: Pelikan M605, Lamy Al-Star, Namisu Nova, and a vintage hooded-nibbed Sheaffer that needs restoring.

5-6 Pelikans...half semi-vintage, half vintage and one modern. 3 Geha's, an Osmia, Lamy Persona &Joy. a couple MB's...one modern, one '50's. a 1745 Reform....for editing in it's an EF.

Ransom Bucket cost me many of my pictures taken by a poor camera that was finally tossed. Luckily, the Chicken Scratch pictures also vanished.

There has been just one fountain pen on my desk today because I've been drawing with pencil all day instead of pen and ink.

 

The pen du jour for writing of all kinds has been a clear TWSBI Eco with an EF nib and Noodler's Black Swan in Australian Roses.

Will work for pens... :unsure:

Fountain pens do not lie, though Tuckersharpes sometimes exaggerate. Ballpoint pens lie.

 

However, One grey HERO 266 fountain pen is on my desk. It is loaded with Thornton Black. It is for everyone to use. My periodic "sowing of the seed".
