Well, today, my new Visonti Gold Pont with a Fine nib, a knockout of a pen, but I really would like extra fine; Lamy 2000 with Extra Fine nib, which, again, really isn't Extra Fine, and my Omas Orange and Blue Bologna fine point, which IS an actual fine point to me.

 

I really want a Gold Point!!! I was wondering why they didn't add the white swirls to the cap?

Nice looking pen...!!

 

 

 

That was EXACTLY my question! But, I went to the Visconti website, and the Gold Points all have the amber(only) cap. I definitely wanted one with white in it! The pen is ok.............would I buy it again?? Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....not so sure. But, where I pen-shop, they definitely allow exchanges within a reasonable amount of time, soooooooo....who knows? I really like that Omas Bologna, though!

I guess I'm not the only one who thinks that the white swirls should be on the cap!! It would look really nice with the swirls. Also imagine

if the swirls lined up when you cap the pen....HOT! I may just buy it for the gold color. Maybe I can train my brain not to process

the swirls on the barrel... :hmm1:

It arrived this morming, a beautiful Sailor Sapporo Black/Rhodium with fine nib. It writes just as smoothly as I thought it would, and Fine it is! So far I have only tried it with the Blue Jentle ink cartdrige that came and I must say that it meets my expectations. A very fine line, not too wet not too dry, just perfect, and above all, smoooooth! Thanks Pam Braun, for a great shopping experience.

Pelikan 200, Platinum 3778, and Waterman Phileas.

[sdonahue]

A Laban Mento called 'Black and White Electric' with a fine point. Wild-looking huge pen that attracts a lot of attention. Writes well, too.

For Friday (and probably the remainder of the holiday weekend), I've inked up:

 

Visconti Van Gogh Midi in Sandal with FPN Galileo

Aurora Ipsilon in black/silver with Noodler's Legal Lapis

 

I've got my blank moleskine and I'm ready to go!

[Beechwood]

Muji all aluminium and own recipe S.A.T. Black ink

 

Dark green Cross ATX with own mellow brown ink in my pocket

[Shangas]

Parker Duofold Big Red.

 

Dip-pen.

 

Made a right mess today writing down stuff in preparation for university. Ink flying everywhere...fun...

[altoclef]

In the backpack: Lamy Safari, fine, Noodler's Legal Lapis for journaling and general writing.

In the shirt pocket: Pilot Birdie, medium, Noodler's Baystate Blue for calendar and incidentals. I love this pen/ink combination!

For italic writing practice: Parker 45, stub, Pelikan Blue-Black. The shade variation is great.

 

Back to it!

Used my Morita Sapporo Mini now filled with Diamine Tropical Blue at work all day. When I came home, Lamy Studio Pearl White was waiting for me. I filled it with Montblanc Violet. Writes very smooth, beautiful pen. A bit longer than I thought, but that's OK as girth is not too big

[raffor]

Tibaldi Modello 60 Ivory/Blue, 18kt ef nib, filled with Blue Black Montblanc.

 

Bye!!!
