Congrats.... I have five of his pens and really like them.

Me too. 

Townsend- dark purple ripple ebonite 

Elizabethan - don't recall material name, although the body and cap are black, section and cap finial in something different 

Majestic- brown Tortoise 

Majestic-"urban offroad" 

 

I'll have to take a pic of all four once the new one arrives.

I ordered a Diplomat Viper for 20% off at Atlas a few days ago and today a Montagrappa Elmo 01 stonewash gray for $150. Over the years I've thought about an Elmo and the "low" price finally got me. Not so sure about the Viper but reviews say it doesn't dry out and the grip isn't slippery, but what is fine to some is slippery to me so it might go back.

I’m waiting on a Jinhao 10 capless that looks like the limited edition seashore Pilot VP. It’s going to be a Christmas present.

I wasn't interested in the Slytherin SE, but am really considering the Ravenclaw SE, and possibly the Gryffindor one (the Hufflepuff pen I'd have to see in person to decide if I like the color, or if it's actually too yellow for my taste).

Not sure of holiday plans yet, but if we get to my sister-in-law's, I can walk over to Herald Square and hop on the subway and then walk a few blocks over to the Lamy SoHo store....

I recently bought an Elmo in the Samarkand acrylic with a cursive italic nib-fantastic pen in every way for me.  The writing experience is as good as any pen I’ve written with.  Here’s hoping you  enjoy yours as much as I have.

Thanks I expect good things from the Elmo...

The Newton arrived yesterday. It's slightly shorter than my other Majestic, even though both are his "small" size.

 

Here it is along with my other Newton's/it's siblings.  (It's the middle of the three)

I used Walmart Cash, and a promo code I got while trying to find out about pending Walmart Cash from August 2024. I used the chat to try to see why Walmart Cash was pending for 5 months. The response was a team would look into getting my pending cash in 48 hours. Or I could get a promo code for $10 off $15 now. I opted for the promo code. That means the Kaweco Frosted Sport in Lime with BB nib was bought with $20.25 off the price. It ships from Truphae.
