What pen are you waiting for in the mail?


scratchy

Recommended Posts

An MB 134, coming from across the pond. I can see it's hit the US, and is in transit.

 

Also, a vintage Melbi from across the pond as well. Not sure about it.

 

I'll just sit and tap my foot... I hate to wait...

Here are Brian's photos of the pen he completed for me this morning, which will be shipped early next week. I think the red/black swirl ebonite is lovely.

It is a Herald with the grip section from a Huron, with the entire pen lengthened to make room for the longer section and maintain balance.

I sent him an 18k fine Aurora nib I was not using, and it fit perfectly with his feed and section.

A Pilot M90 and a Conway Stewart Kipling - I hope the latter's as amazing in the flesh as I think it will be.

I'm waiting for a Peacock Sheaffer Snorkel Statesman with what has been described as a sopping wet medium. I bought it today, so I might not be technically waiting for it in the mail until it gets sent in the early part of the week. I'm sill excited.

Jinhao "Steel Missile" F-nib from ahai006 ($4.90USD each; eBay) - Fisher Space Pen "Bullet"-sized, but an FP with a squeeze converter.

Brown Pilot "Prera" F-nib & Clear-barreled Pilot "Penmanship" XF-nib from JetPens - I love Asian F & XF nibs!!

 

 

I just got this FP in and I love it. Super fine nib and works wonders with the good old Parker Blue Quink

I'm waiting on two pens, a Sailor 1911 Medium clear demonstrator with fine nib, which might be delivered tomorrow. And a Rotring 900 broad nib I won on eBay that's coming from Germany, so it definitely won't be here until after Thanksgiving.

When you reach the Stars, boy, yes, and live there forever all the fears will go and Death itself will die.

A Parker Vacumatic Debutante with a flex nib and a Pilot Namiki white VP with a medium nib.

All these pens sound so great. Don't you wish all these packages were somehow routed to your mailbox?
