Picked up the green version (as opposed to blue green) and think it's pretty darn nice.

 

You'll be happy and no mistake.

Well, thanks to the classifieds here and my lack of impulse control, i am waiting for a MB Balzac writers series and a 75th Anniversary 146 limited edition. So much for not buying any more pens this year... :doh:

If you want less blah, blah, blah and more pictures, follow me on Instagram!

From Richard's pen tray, NOS Stickered Black Waterman first-year Taperite Crusader, flexible M nib.

 

I also have two Parker 51's, a vintage Pelikan, and a gold TWSBI in the mail. And maybe a Pilot Stargazer. If I pull the trigger.

Managed to get in the Massdrop for a Lamy 2000 and a Lamy Safari FP/MP combo, but as massdrop goes it'll be a while before i get them.

Well, I thought it would be nice to have more pens to have more ink colours at hand for use. And ebayshopping while bored is... risky. :wacko: I ended up with:

- Baoer 508 in "Flash Magic Blue" colour

- One pack of Wing Sung 322 with TEN pens in different colours. I believe these to actually be made of celluloid acetate, but might be just plastic. Looks good though. Two are for gifts, the rest should be more than enough for ink-variaton needs, but..

- One pack of FIVE Wing Sung lucky 2007, also maybe-cheap-celluloid on the outside. Simply had to have the green one, which was about $10 on its own, the blue one was kinda nice, and all five were under $30...

 

I'm also waiting on twenty 1ml measuring syringes and 16 ml glass bottles for ink mixing.

 

BUT! I'm now done with ordering chinese pens. The next pen I'm buying shall be a "nice pen" (probably vintage considering price) that just screams BUY ME! when I see it. Sucha pen has yet to present itself, however.

 

I might end up giving some of those away for postage, but as the postal service in Norway is expensive, it might be cheaper to just buy them new from China. :P

I am trying not to hold my breath because some of these are coming from very, very far away, but I have the following on the way

1) a Kaweco Skyline in Mint with a double broad nib

2) a Sheaffer Prelude Rainbow with a medium nib

3) a Lanbit (Jinhao type) Pocket Missle with a fine nib

4) a Pilot Petit1 in pink with a medium nib

 

I know. I have a problem. ;)

Where did you buy the Kaweco Skyline with the option to choose a BB nib? You can choose the nib on the Ice-Sport as well?

 

Thank you!

I bought my Skyline Mint in BB on eBay!! I simply love it. I bought it with a Skyline Grey in Medium for a sketch set. Now I just need a white Kaweco with a B nib to complete the set.

 

But the Mint BB is lovely, and oh so buttery smooth.
