What Do You Have Inked?

[biancitwo]

M800 with Pendleton Brown CI filled with Diamine November Rain. Love this pen and ink.

M605 with PB CI filled with Diamine Skull and Roses. The first time I used his ink it dried on the nib with little time uncapped. It does not now. Cant explain that. Skull and Roses behaves beautifully like November Rain. Two great pens and inks.

Thank you so much for mentioning your M205 black F nib.

On my writing desk is an M205 black B nib with a Fritz Schimpf Italic grind.

It's inked in L’Artisan Pastellier Callifolio Bleu Azur.

I hope that you're enjoying your black M205 as much as I'm enjoying mine!

M205 Olivine, the latest addition to the flock. And I love it!

 

Mind you, I don't use the Olivine ink as I'm worried it is a bit too eccentric for work purposes...

Congrats on the Olivine! It is my first Pelikan. The green is so deep. I inked it with Sherwood green, the color matched very nicely.

[Derwin-Milhous]

M200 with Edelstein Star Ruby for corrections, M1000 with Edelstein Aventurine for everything else

I just got those and Edelstein Topaz which is in my Montblanc now. These inks are so nice!!

Going all brown today...Pelikan M800 Tortoise inked with Waterman Absolute Brown.

Thank you!

 

I think the tines on the pen are actually slightly misaligned. You can see the slit from the left but not from the right. But it's a very smooth and friendly nib, so no reason to do anything about it

Good old green stripes 140, with F nib, inked with Royal Blue. A classic!

[ENewton]

This past weekend I inked my Pelikan 140 with Birmingham Boiler Steam Blue Black. I knew I would be attending the San Francisco International Pen Show, and I wanted to ask Rick Propas to take a look at it. The pen had given me no actual problems, but I was curious about the insistence, by some posters, that the 140 produces line variation under normal writing pressure. Someone had even suggested that the nib on mine might not be original.

 

Rick wrote with the pen and told me it is absolutely normal for a 140 and that one shouldn't expect to see line variation when writing with a light hand. He explained that the 140 was meant for someone who would use it all day for practical writing and then maybe come home and want to do something special when writing a letter.

M120 Iconic Blue, broad nib, with Pelikan royal blue. Bearing in mind my long-ago school days and school inks, I was expecting to write a fairly pale blue line. But no. By artificial light the color seems almost to be a rich blue-black, and by sunlight it is clearly blue, though not at all pale. It may be the broadness of the nib that makes the difference. At the age of seven or eight I wasn't writing with a broad nib.

M910 Toledo -- Finished up Sheaffer Peacock Blue, so I swapped the nib from BB to B and put in Pelikan Edelstein Aquamarine

M600 Dark Blue Transparent -- Finished up Parker Penman Sapphire, put in Sailor Iroshizuku Kon-Peki
