What Pens Are You Using Today?

Sheaffer cheapo pen (like, $1.99) which had black ink, and I replaced the cartridge with green. I love to see the ink slowly change from black to green. When the green runs out, I'll replace it with black, and watch my writing slowly turn back to black. Then, continue repeating.

Sheaffer Javelin with a medium nib running Waterman washable blue cartridges for most things, and Lamy Tipo 0.7 loaded with Pentel Ain 2B in my work Diary/work log.

 

I may be using a FP a bit now, but I'm a MP bloke at heart :P

You get the most intriguing colors that way!

 

I'm still trying to write out that Sheaffer NN with its blue/black cart, then off to the soaking bin with it.

 

Also working with a Wearever Pennant, and Diamine Lt. Green ink (sorta matches the barrel).

My latest ebook.   And not just for Halloween!
 

My other pen is a Montblanc.

In two days I'll be back at work. Time to redefine my working flock:

 

- Montblanc Noblesse Oblige cream white w/black Reynolds cartridge

- Sheaffer Balance LT Senior Black w/Pelikan Royal Blue

- Pilot Vpen red

 

I need now to find a volunteer for the brown ink...

So finally it was my SS black matte Sonnet which was not used for a long time. I forgot how broad was its medium. Doesn’t look perfect with this Sheaffer’s Brown either…

Home-converted Demonstrator-Stub-ED. Made for the princely sum of 39 pence and inked up with homebrew red-black.

 

Funky and Frugal!

Today's pen is a blue with chrome accents pilot vanishing point with medium nib and loaded with Pilot Iroshizuku Asa Gao. A perfect combo....

Today's pen is an early 1990's black M600 with a fine 18k nib tuned my Mr. Mottishaw loaded up with Diamine Sapphire blue. Considering how cold it's going to get later this week. I might flush it later today and load up some Noodlers Polar Blue.
