Using a Jinhao x459 and a TWSBI Eco, with Robert Oster Clearwater rain and Iroshizuku Ama-iro, respectively.

 

The Jinhao is beautiful and reasonably good writer, but I did get hand cramp from writing too long with it - it is a heavy as heck pen! But for a $9.95 pen, it looks and feels like five times that.

 

The TWSBI is my dream pen in terms of performance, and I'm delighted with how it just glides across the paper, and how wet it writes, at least in combination with the paper I'm using.

 

The Clearwater Rain is my favorite ink I've tried so far! It has such a nice, balanced level of sheen, and the color is fascinating - I keep wondering if it's more green or more blue. Could gaze at it all day trying to decide.

Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm. (Winston Churchill)

Today again the M405 Stresseman. After finally finding the right ink to go with it, I'm really enjoying using this beauty.

It's hard work to tell which is Old Harry when everybody's got boots on.

Got the Visconti Millionaire out today. Green marble with a medium palladium nib. I'm using Nemosine snowball nebula but it seems to be a little cloggy in this pen. Typically this nib is very wet but not today.

Someday the mountain might get em but the law never will.........
