What pen(s) are you using today?


A Smug Dill

Recommended Posts

Monteverde Invincia Nebula broad nib. I’m trying out my ink experiments in the broadest nibs I have in my collection, and couldn’t wait for my  demonstrator stub in to finish drying.

   I used smaller pens today, as I was helping a friend price some pens for consignment. (How do y’all stand the resin Noodler’s stench- 4 hours later and I still have a headache). I brought my Morison XXXF short long with Monteverde Brown Sugar and my Beena Magic with an unknown blue ink cartridge it had when given to me. I also dipped an unknown flex nibbed demonstrator with a bronze leaf finial and a leaf motif on the nib in Lamy Dark Lilac ‘24.

I think I will be using a Delta Planet Collection with Edelstein Topaz. It's a fairly fat pen that's good for arthritic hands.

Using 2x hand me down FP today. 

Parker and sheaffer FP (guess should be vintage pens?)

Parker inked with pilot momiji (autumn leaves) and sheaffer inked with pilot shin ryoku (forest green). 

 

Any kind hearted expert can identify the pens?

Currently inked:

 

Estie Oversize Journaler nib, Colorverse Quasar (sample)

TWSBI Eco EF nib, Noodler's Stockyard Signature 

Preppy 02/EF nib, Noodler's Sequoia*

Moonman Q2 EF, Diamine Damson*

Benu Minima EF, Diamine Monboddo's Hat (really ought to have this ink in something wide and juicy)

Levenger M, Diamine Polar Glow

Asvine V200, Kyoto TAG Kyo-no-oto kokeiro (sample)

Pelikan m205 B, Edelstein Moonstone

Pelikan M200 B, Edelstein Mandarin

Pelikan M205 EF, Edelstein Apatite

Kaweco M, R&K Helianthus

Sailor 1911L F (new nib), Sailor Jentle Black

Pilot VP EF, Iroshizuku Momiji (another one that should be in a big juicy nib, I think, but I like this ink in this nib, so here we are)

 

Tomorrow I'm planning to re-ink my M800 green demonstrator with something drier than Monteverde Olivine. I have a sample of Edelstein Olivine, or I could go old school with Pelikan 4001. Hoping a dryer ink will throttle that firehose a little.

 

Also waiting on a F-C S.I.G. nib for my Newton, which I plan to load with something sparkly and red. I have choices.

 

*These are my NYT crossword pens and live in a beat up kid-made pen cup on my side table. I'm always tempted to not count them, but that would be cheating.

@penwarrior32 it might would be a good idea to start a new topic asking for help to identify your pens. Those posts do get noticed and answered.
