What pen are you waiting for in the mail?


scratchy

Recommended Posts

Another Pilot 78G, this time with a medium nib rather than a fine nib. I was really disappointed with my first one, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Just ordered an Omas emotica black with a medium nib. I am so excited to try this pen with the J Herbin Vert Empire that's coming with it. For me this is huge as I have only ever written with my lamy safari. The next 2 days are gonna feel like a month!!!

Waiting for a Fermo from Taizo (engeika) in Japan. I have a handful of regular Pilot VPs, a Sesenta (Decimo size), but no Fermo. I was curious and I hope I'll like using it. It's just arrived in Boston today. The question is whether the USPS with all its service cutbacks will get it to me today or tomorrow.

Waiting for an old MB 146 to arrive from Italy and a new Stipula Etruria Fiesole from Malaysia. Very interested to feel how the MB 146 feels in the hand. Can't wait to see the Fiesole in the flesh - think I know how it feels as I have the Nuda.

Not completely relevant to this thread but...

 

I received an email from my local MB boutique. They have managed to source a William Faulkner fountain pen for me. The shop is open until 20:00 in the evening so will try and pop in one night after work to check it out. Assuming it is not damaged in any way I will purchase it.

I just received a Waterman Harmony Set (Black and Silver) today from a fellow FPNer!

 

I am waiting on a Pilot 78g B nib because some of you convinced me it was a must have...ok it didn't take much convincing.

Two Noodler's pens, black and red, and a bottle of Diamine Poppy Red.

 

If what's been said here that waterman #2 nibs fit the Noodler's pen is true, I'm sure a flex nib will be in the mail soon.

Now that I have gotten my Lamy Ratio 44 (love it) and have written off the pens smeden was directed by me to send to the wrong address as likely a victim of imperfect postal forwarding, I'm just waiting on the smeden pens (Reform 120 and Dollar school pen) he very kindly discounted even though I made the error.

I'm waiting for two. Both ebay auctions:

 

Esterbrook J 1554 nib and,

 

"Antique Chilton Wing-flow"

 

Dunno how "Antique" the Chilton is, but it looked interesting.

 

Should be here the first of next week!
