I've got too many pens inked, so I wrote out my Hero 616 (the green ink I had in there seemed more like green-black) and today I'm working on my Lamy ABC with Lamy Turq in the cart.

My latest ebook.   And not just for Halloween!
 

My other pen is a Montblanc.

Today's pen for me is a Midnight Blue Parker 51 (USA) Aerometric F nib with a gold filled cap loaded up with Noodlers Baystate Blue, really nice combination.

]Does anyone know what this is? I actually knew about 6 months ago and no longer remember. I got it NOS without papers. The Nib is clear that it's a Pilot Namiki.

 

I would appreciate any help and I promise to write the name down someplace permanent.

Hi friends I am new to the forum and would like opinions as to a nice desk set fountain pen. I prefer a VERY broad nib; I've been accused of preferring to paint rather than write. This would be largely used as a signature pen. Any thoughts? Thanks!

I'm off to training today, so I selected two pens to take with me. My cadmium yellow Sheaffer Imperial with stub nib and my Conway Stewart #58. Both loaded with PR DC Electric Blue, diluted (one part water - the stuff just doesn't dry otherwise!).

I am using my c. 1944 Cordovan Brown USA Parker 51 with a gold filled cap with Quink Washable Blue in the pen.

 

For some reason this pen will only work with Quink Washable blue anything else, it writes dry.

Desk set? You mean as in pen and pencil together?

 

I just inked my Sheaffer Legacy in B nib for the first time since discovering the converter has a missing part (I used a cart, k? In Gold.). This thing writes like a garden hose! Maybe the pen for you?

Sailor,

 

NOt a fountain pen and pencil set; a desk set with a pen and pen holder. Like you I would like a flexible broad nib

Today's pen is yet another 51 (slowly going through the 51 collection), this time an India Black single jewel with sterling silver cap from 1942 again inked up with Quink Washable Blue.

A beautiful M320 (jade green) which was sent as a present by a dear friend, to cheer me up after my recent cancer diagnosis! it is sooo tiny! But perfectly formed, and writes as well as its big brothers and sisters too.
