What pen are you waiting for in the mail?

[fasthall]

nice pens....

some diamine ox blood or MB Red Chalk (if you can even find it this late in the year) would look nice in that pen.

I happen to have oxblood! I will try it in next fill.

Going to give the Pilot E95s a try. Got a red one coming in the mail.

 

Might I suggest not flinging it when you get it? Freaked out at a hair on my arm while holding mine & spit some Antietam out across a wall. Fortunately, it landed on a soft surface without any damage, but it looked like a crime scene for a while.

A Pelikan m600 White Tortoise.

The Osmiroid 65 with 5 italic nibs arrived. Partial to the B2 & B3 nibs which provide a variety of line widths. Pen is in excellent condition. No scratches or nicks. Discovered that I have to write a bit slower with these italic nibs for the ink flow. Hope to improve my handwriting.

Edison Nouveau Premiere, Autumn Harvest, F nib. eeeeee! It'll be my first edison.

TWSBI 580. After eyeing it for over a year, I finally pulled the trigger today.

[Drone]

Pilot Lucina in Yellow, F-nib (they seem to be available only with F-nibs these days). I owned one before - gifted it to a new FP user - missed it - bought another. It's on the way from Taizo at Engeika along with a CON-50 converter to replace the aerometric converter it comes with. Pen = $45.90, CON-50 = $4.75, Tracked EMS Shipping = $9.75, $60.15 total. The pen alone from Jetpens in the U.S. is $82.50. Go figure.

4 pen lot of NoNonsense & a converter. Doing some early Christmas shopping. My sister wanted to buy some junk fp, so I gave her a 616 I had collecting dust. While I was loading it up, she started looking at my pens & mentioned she wanted a blue italic NN, so I grabbed the lot. Gives her the blue one she wanted, the full italic nib set, a replacement body for my orange NN, & a couple to spare.

Super excited for my first vacuum filler that's coming in few days. Blue Vac 700 in broad. It's gonna be my grading pen.

[NinthSphere]

Some Brause nibs, oblique holder, J. Herbin Ambre de Birmanie, some 0.9 & 1.5mm lead for my new (old) pencils. Going to try the nibs with the Desiderata when it gets here. If they don't work out with the D, then I've got a holder to mess with.

No pens in the mail... but waiting for a Lamy 2000 0.5mm pencil to go with my four Lamy FPs !

[Lou Erickson]

I was reminded I had ordered a TWSBI 580 AL from Pendelton Brown when it came in the mail.

 

This is not to say it was slow to ship - on the contrary, it was very quick! - but that my last couple of weeks have been incredibly busy. That doesn't look likely to change till the middle of January.

 

The sad part is that I haven't inked it yet, and don't know when I'll get to it.

[greensparcs]

Waiting on these, A red Esterbrook J with a 9556 nib and this Salz Bros (peter pan I think)
