I've been using a green musk Visconti Van Gogh Maxi. I haven't used this pen in a while and I forgot how good the nib is on this particular pen; it's amazingly good.

I used most of them today working on my latest letter. https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php?/topic/150853-to-my-flickr-pal-driftingfocus/

 

Estie J 2968, Namiki VP, (3) Reform 1745s, Pelikan 140 (dipped, can't ink it till I fix the collar wallbash.gif) and a bunch of Sharpies. I have to confess, I *REALLY* need one of those refillable stainless steel sharpies. I plow through those things.

Decided to take my Sheaffer PFM V for a run out today with Diamine Maroon ink.

And how can this be, because he is the Kwisatz Haderach.

A hint of Dune in the signature there. Will the others get it.

There's someone else, forgot whom, who has the mentat chant on their title, except it's ink instead of safu.

Today I MIGHT try using a Sheaffer Frankenpen consisting of a F Legacy nib section and a cheap plastic new-style calligraphy body. Amazingly, it fits.

 

Have nib, no body. :P

My latest ebook.   And not just for Halloween!
 

My other pen is a Montblanc.

Hero 616 Jumbo because it always starts. I was going to say even when empty, but it's not quite that miraculous, although for $5 it's not far off. Waterman's Blue Washable in it.

 

For signing stuff, Safari OB (I was going to write obnibliated, but I won't) with Diamine Jet Black for the in-your-face factor.

When you're good at it, it's really miserable.

In the rotation today and for the whole week at the office:

The more I write with it, the more I appreciate this nice tool.

 

Parker Black cartridge in it. Awaiting for some good ink from the U.K.

Today my favorite Pilot Fermo with fine point. Noodler's blue black (I forgot which one).

Waiting for a new Parker 51 I just bought on e-bay. Hope it's as good as it looks.
