Blue Pen Club- Show Me Your Blue Pens!

So we had been talking about blue pens in the “What Pen Are You Using Today, in 2023” and there were lots of blue pen pictures posted. Here are mine. They run the gamut from hella cheap to expensive in the 1990s. The only one missing is my five below calligraphy pen.

Me too! I particularly fall hard for blue and gold trim. That lapis Duofold in your photo caught my eye right away!💙

@PAKMAN, you are a true blue inspiration!  What is the little pen between the Curidas and the  Kaweco?

Since this is a blue pen thread, I’m going to go ahead and post a shot in the dark:

So the long story short is I’m looking for a pen to embody this color swatch: a dark glittery blue with a purple sheen. If anyone happens to have a pen with this color I would love to see pictures and a description of its make and model.

 

Since my pen collection is currently scattered around the house I will wait until tomorrow to send a picture of my own blue pens.

If your car has them, make sure to change your timing belts every 80-100,000 miles. (Or shorter if specified in the manual)

Ok, I had more blue pens than I expected. Some just barely qualify. Doh! I forgot to include my navy Plumix.

I'm pretty sure this is all of mine - I had to dig out a sketch kit or two to round them all up.

Ah, you have a Safari in 2011 LE Aquamarine…

 

I am still kicking myself for not buying one in a store in my nearest town back in 2012, when it would have cost me the ‘huge’ amount of £14 😔
Have you seen their prices now? 🤦‍♂️

I got mine after the release. I think it was the year the tsunami hit Japan, because the pen shipped from Japan. I don’t remember how much it cost, but I don’t think I would have paid more than $40. I have not seen the prices. I hope you can get one some day.
