What Pens Are You Using Today?

[HelzBelz]

Today's pen of use was my freshly fully cleaned new-to-me Pelikan 100, with supersweet flexy nib and Waterman Violet ink. I'm very pleased with this little pen that I picked up cheaply on Ebay on a whim.

Pelikan 100s are wonderful!

 

Today I'm using a Montblanc 342G with DEF nib (Noodler's Bulletproof Black) and a Pelikan M205 clear demonstrator with EF nib (Montblanc Gandhi/saffron ink). I have something like 11 pens with me here at work (or is it 12?), but I've had my nose to the grindstone and have just grabbed these two so far...

A twelve-dollar turquoise-blue Duke 600 that out-writes many a costlier pen! Filled with some unknown blue ink cart that pretty much by accident matches the barrel color.

Lamy Safari F with blue Lamy ink, and a Pilot Varsity disposable with blue ink.

[Imzadi]

I just flushed all my inked pens and so far have only reinked my VP with Pilot Blue-Black in a cart.

A new pen and a new bottle of ink yesterday, so today a silver and black Visconti skeleton with Caran d'ache storm.

I left the house for work this evening with one of my OMAS T-2s (Fine Nib) with Noodler's Red-Black and my new White Pelikan M205 (0.5mm Cursive Italic from Richard Binder) filled with Waterman Blue-Black.

I think today's pen will be either my Lamy 2000 or Pelikan M200 with Binder italic nib: I'm going out on the motorbike to look at cars, so I'd prefer not to take the vintage Pelikans out with me. The Lamy is inked with Diamine Chocolate Brown, the M200 with Waterman Havana. Notes written with both of them have a pleasing look to them.

Today's pen is an early 1970s broad nibbed Parker 75 Cisele loaded up with Noodlers Midnight Blue.

[Pippin60]

My Careene, and Parker 51. (I wanted to add my Parker to the list since I just got it today, you know "new toy" sort of thing...)

[Thirteenthwind]

Today has been my Lamy Safari and Visconti Mazzi Apache, both with medium nibs. So happy~

Today I am writing with two of my pens: the 2010 Bexley Owners Club with Medium Nib filled with Noodler's Widow Maker and my Delta Dolca Vita with Medium Nib filled with Private Reserve DC Supershow Blue.

 

I hope you enjoy the photos!

I have just started using my new Lamy Safari, after 25 years service, it is time for my old one to become the back up

Parker 51 navy blue, 1.3mm Minuskin ball nib, Herbin Orange Indien. Luscious!

MB Poe, broad nib, Montblanc Blue-black.

I'm still scribbling with my Namiki Falcon filled with Noodler's Dark Matter...

A very light weight Pelikan, plasti student pen! I acquired this little FP via the internet. I think I got three of them for around $12. Both the cap and barrel have animations on them, a rocker girl dancing, a flower and a few polka dots. It has a silver nib, with the letter m and the Pelikan logo. It is presently fitted a ink cartridge, filled with Authentic Models Turquoise ink. This pen may write better than any FP that I own! It lays a smooth and wet line, the ink flow is perfect! The pen posts perfectly, grips perfectly and the cap snaps on perfectly. The matte black clip is plastic but is very effecient and works perfectly. The only downside is the fact that one cannot very well carry it into the corporate board room! It is too adolescent in nature and by no means looks professional! Other than that,it writes better'n most pens that I own, including those that costs $300 and above! It's all the fountain pen anyone would really ever need!

Today's pens were a 1927 Wahl Art Deco and a 1935 Sheaffer Balance.

Today I flushed my new Rotring Esprit Telescopic and put it to work. It was having problems with an inconsistent feed and the flush seems to have fixed it. Guess I'll see for sure tomorrow...
