Today's pen is an annoyingly-scratchy white Lamy Safari.

 

I was hoping it would settle with use, but I wrote my journal this morning with a nail buffer handy so it could make repeated little visits (after first having dh examine it closely with his microscope, of course). The ink is the Lamy blue cartridge that came with it cos Some Idiot (me...) forgot to order a converter for it. Horrible colour.

Pink TWSBI 580-AL, B nib, with KWZI Chicago Green LE (the special show ink for this years's Chicago Pen Show.  An interesting color (although I haven't gotten any sheen out of it), but also wet and very saturated (to the point of being slightly cloggy at times.

The blue-striped M405 tonight. The Kana-cho has been in long enough since the flush and re-inking that the green sheen is becoming quite apparent in the wet line, a few more days still to go for the dried line.

Today it was the Vibrant Pink al-Star, 1.1 mm nib, finishing up a fill of MB Permanent Blue-Black; and the Medieval Lapis Noodler's Konrad, flex nib, with (what IIRC is diluted) Noodler's Akhmatova.

I got to pick one of those up at the recent Hammersmith pen show @PAKMANit was deliciously heavy and is definitely on my wish list in the future. I am intrigued if the pen picked you or of it was a destination pen for you? I think it came in other finishes too, maybe a ‘Barley’ design - what made you pick this one and are you still interested as enchanted with it as you were when you first obtained it? A lovely pen, thanks for sharing this morning.

I came across it at the Dallas Pen show and the price was right. I had not had this specific pen on my radar before that. It is beautiful and this is my first inking of it to try it out!

Today I’m using my black Sailor 1911 Realo, M nib. Inked with Monteverde’s Blu Velvet Cake. A very nice color.

A dip pen. 🤣 for testing ink samples.
