Today so far, it's been the purple TWSBI 580-ALR, 1.1 mm stub, with diluted Diamine Shimmer Arabian Nights, and I'm about to use the Aqua Snorkel Statesman, EF nib, with J Herbin Bleu des Profondeurs.

Yesterday, it was a Lamy day. Dark Lilac Safari, F nib, with Lamy Crystal Benetoiite; and Ruthenium LX, M nib, with KWZI Walks or Vistula.

I do not often take out of the house Onotos of 90+ years age because there are known problems of burping as the ink runs low, with little control exerted by the finless feeds of the time. However, today I used at home and out at a design discussion an Onoto 3000 from the early 1920s, filled with Waterman's blue (Serenity). It has behaved impeccably, writing on demand with no trace of ill behaviour and of course the 3/ST nib is a delight. The 1950s Aurora 88 held in reserve was not needed.

In addition to the ones from yesterday, add the Grey Decimo, F nib, with Iroshizuku Take-sumi.

 

Today, it's been the Poseidon Pearl Noodler's Konrad, flex nib, with Noodler's Kung Te Cheng.

switched pen, today I'm on a Stipula Florentia Graphite

I've been told there's only a few of these around (nothing special with it though, it's a resin pen, with converter and a titanium nib, the trim is silver according to former Stipula tradition)

I was curious so looked up your Tuscany. Nice pen!

(don't know who the picture belongs to - might be an auction site - but I'm sure they won't mind as it's for documentary reasons...)
