At this very moment, I have three in my pocket:

 

A midsized 30s Waterman in a beautiful brown pearl celluloid, the model name/number I've never been able to find out... Filled with Noodler's Antietam

 

A 40s Dusty Red Parker Vacumatic (button-filler) - This one is actually a "family" pen; I think it was my grandmother's. This one is filled with Noodler's Ottoman Azure.

 

A 30s brown/pearl Mabie-Todd Swan Visofil. This one has Noodler's Borealis Black.

Just got my Lamy Safari charcoal with black trim and fine point in the mail last evening.

Filled it with the blue Lamy cartridge that was enclosed, just in a hurry to use it.

Within 15 seconds of tightening the cartridge ink was at the nib, ready to write.

It is much smoother and wetter than my other Lamy fine point, it really is wonderful, particularly for a steel point pen.

Used it all day today, great writer.

Inked up my recently arrived Esterbrook J with Relief Medium Stub. Ink is FPN Tulipe Noire. Wow! What a silky smooth nib!

The Skyline still has blue ink, so I'm still using it, along with an Esterbrook L J, with a medium stub nib, inked with vintage Sheaffer Red, and my new Sailor Sappporo, with Parker black ink, just to feel the zoom nib.

I switched a PR Supershow Green cart from a Pel calligraphy pen into a Rotring Skynn, and whatever it's chasing has produced a nice soft grayish-green. I like!

[ZeissIkon]

Still the Yafa Cartridge Fountain Pen from Office Depot, but just ordered a new pen...

Lamy Safari and Lamy Studio

I'm knocking around today in jeans and hitting the hardware stores for parts for several projects I have going. So the Blue Lamy Safari with Lamy blue ink are the ticket for me today.
